    Starting again

    So I've been using every excuse under the sun to not excercise and loose weight, but I'm stopping now!

    DH has made a deal with me, if I get to 82 kilos in the next 8 months then he'll take me on a cruise for our wedding anniversary.

    I WANT THAT DAMN CRUISE!!!

    So I'm gonna loose weight! Not sure what I weigh now, but I'm going to buy some scales and I'll come back and report

    I hope you'll all kick my butt when I'm bad and help me get that cruise

    Wow what an incentive... wish my DP would offer me something like that rather than the sly 'should you really eat that comments'.

    Set small goals, more achievable and easier to maintain, you don't want a MASSIVE drop that wont stay off.. cut out softdrink , i did this a while back and dropped a couple of kilos in the first 2 wks.

    GL i am sure you will make it...
