Ahhh thanks for the post Shaza, pleased to hear I'm not alone, it is a bit quite on here at the moment......... Mini did used to have one, fingers crossed she will check in in a little while and let me copy hers.....
It is hard getting motivated sometimes, each and everyone of us loves food, that is why we are here in the first place, that and the fact that eating is fairly addictive, so it is only natural we find it a struggle at times. But I think the things I have learnt over the last year are that each struggle is worth it, it isn't impossible to get back on the waggon and I don't have to wait X weeks before it will work for me again...... When I used to diet via slimming clubs, ww sw, if I dropped out I could never get the get up and go to do it again for 4-5 months, I've learnt I don't need that space the motivation will come straight back if I let it.
The other thing I have learnt is I need to treat food with more respect and realize that it isn't normal to eat eat and more it. The other thing that really keeps me going is the thought of eating out. Now I have never ever worried about eating out, I always enjoy it, but now I know I will enjoy it so much more as I will look so much better and I won't go with having already eaten just a bit. Much better to go for a meal when you are hungry... lol.........
Hope you find your mojo soon...... don't wait until after Xmas, you could lose 2 and a half stone before Christmas day if you set your mind to it..............
And please someone, give me a blue star... lol..
