Amy- send me some of your motivation... Phew it was 42 degrees in penrith today and although the news said it was 38 here my thermometer said it was 40 here... There was no way i was taking the kids out in that... if DP was home i probably would have gone this evening without them would have been a perfect day to sweat it out...
Scone- i wasnt jugeing this girl... well i just hoped that we could be honest and maybe ... you know help each other but i cant stand when people are fake and dishonest . I think you should be proud to have started and putting in the effort... the way i see it is ANY loss is better then a gain...
i have decided that i'm focusing on me and me only... Its nice to have motivation but (and i hope i dont offend anyone) but i dont pay attention to what others have lost... it only depresses me... I know i havent been putting in 100 % my excuse is i'm sick but you know what... There is always an excuse with me... Its hot, its cold, i dont have time, etc etc... well i need to focus and make time... no one else will loose the weight for me... if others are ahead or behind its all ok cos we all know what we have and havent done and were accountable for ourselves...
I have made a promise to NEVER again weight as much as i did in the begining of this challange... Not even close to it... it may take me weeks, months or hey even the year (or 2) to get to my ultimate goal but i really want to get there and thats my focus... I will use everyone as motivation but i'm not pushing myself to do it faster then everyone else... just going at my own pace and hey it took a while to get to here so it'll take time going back... I was telling my DP its like a reverse pregnancy for me... HAHA i need to loose 30-40 kgs... i gained 27 with my DS and lost 10 after then gained 22 with DD... i would love to say that i could loose a kilo a week and in 40 weeks be fat free but it doesnt work that way...
keep up the good work ladies

Je$$, your self awareness on this issue is half the battle. You recognise it in yourself, so therefor you can easily change it.but you know what... There is always an excuse with me... Its hot, its cold, i dont have time, etc etc...
Well done. You'll most likely find that it is a bit like the dishes. The thought of starting is worse than the doing.
Either way, I reckon you'll really begin to enjoy the journey. Being on the journey is easier than worrying about not being on the journey. And it is YOUR trip, no one elses.
Jess, yes I hear you. It is good you are focusing on yourself and I agree that it doesn't matter how long it takes you to get there, it is no competition, it's about you and your ultimate goal. We are all here to support one another and I think that is the greatest thing!

I dunno what to do about my knees clicking when I excercise! I know it sounds dumb but I have to keep things quiet here at night...and that was quiet 'cept for my KNEES!
Should I keep going through the noise????

Jess you are an amazing person and by been so honest with yourself and US you will succeedWith weight loss i think slow and steady wins the race. I too am full of excuses but have been trying really hard to stay motivated. TBH i never thought when i joined this challenge i would take it as serious as i am
. The next 2 weeks for me will be a challenge as DH is going to Vietnam BUT on the other hand i look at it as more time for ME once the kids are in bed etc.
Tried to be good with dinner i ordered a 150g fillet steak (the smallest they did) they wouldnt do it with salad so it came with chips. I ate half. I didnt have my usual mushroom sauce, dessert or latte so although i did eat the chips i did resist my other temptations iykwim so its a start.
Big day tomo girls GL everyone but remember even if the scales or tape measure dont show the results you hoped for its not ALL about weight loss it about healthy life style too iykwim. Be kind to yourselves and know you are doing all you can.
