Want to know why? Because it's okay to fall down and to pick yourself back up again, no matter how many minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years it may take, but as long as you do it, but only when you are ready. I'm obviously referring this to my Weight Watchers experience, I have learnt that if your not with it, you won't be committed and until you are fully committed, you won't successfully lose weight and adapt to a healthier lifestyle.
I've been struggling a lot, I've been debating whether or not I am committed, but then I remember my #1 Key note: I did not gain weight over night, it happened over *years* and its silly for me to think that I can just wake up one morning and *expect* myself to adapt to a healthier lifestyle in one day. I remember my leader once telling me that if you commit to cutting out a bad habit for at least 21 days, then you will crave it less and will be able to live without it.
And to help myself *commit* more I've came up with a little idea.
I found a little Size cap that you find on the hook of the hanger, mine being a Size 16 and I have attached to a little ribbon chain and I've added it to my key chain. So every time I look through my bag or open up my front door, I will see it and *think* about how horrible and awful I do feel at this unhealthy size. And who knows, maybe every time I see it and think 'oh I'll just have this extra biscuit, or order that Chinese,' I will think twice about it :)

(Sorry its not the best Photography, batteries on my camera where about to die so therefore the focus was a bitch)
Or looking at 'fat photos' constantly might do the trick ;)

Probaly around my highest 207lb

Hmm, maybe around 196-200lb

Around the 190'ishlb

Around the 180lbs
I'm going to go start a 'Why I want to lose weight and adapt to a healthier lifestyle' list and perhaps set some goals, before bed time!
Good mindset to have. And I know what you mean about binge days. Today and yesterday have been complete free-for-alls...I haven't bothered counting points...I would lose track..
ReplyDeleteThat's a neat idea, and a great mindset. It isn't an overnight change, and you'll have more success with gradual changes!
