Lose weight the fun way.

Posted on October 13, 2016

here I am once again. I tried this in the past, lost some weight, but have since gained it back for numerous reasons, the main one being, I have been the master in finding an excuse why I don't have to try or workout or eat right. I am feeling wretched. I hate my reflection, I hate the feeling of my body, I want to be positive again but currently I am just feeling terribly unmotivated.

I need to feel like I once did. I feel weak and sloppy. I used to feel strong and confident, powering through workouts. feeling accomplished afterward. I sit here typing this and know that I should be working out, but I won't. I'll finish this and go to bed, just to start and end another day the exact same way. how do I change this?? why have I reverted???

what i do know, is that I want to be under 300 by my 38th birthday in January. it's doable if I try and I want to try, I need to try, no I need to DO.....I NEED TO DO!!!! I NEED TO DO....I NEED TO DO....I NEED TO DO....I NEED TO DO...I NEED TO DO!!!! I WILL, I WILL, I WILL, I WILL!!!

299 by 1/14/17.....here we go.

I know you can do this, step by step. Don't think about tomorrow, or January, do things now, today! Repeat it every day! I'm with you, I'm also struggling with all my excuses

Absolutely!! I have completely been there and still struggle, I know what I need to do but over and over wouldn't do it. I mean the time passed either way but you have to dig deep to figure out why you are giving up. One thing that has helped me is daily affirmations (it feels silly at first) in the mirror every morning I either write or say something I love about myself and something I am going to do good for myself! Find what works for you love and you will be unstoppable!

You can do this! When I started DietBet in August, I weighed 307. I have since lost 28 lbs. When you start to lose, your mindset will change. When you start to make progress, you'll want more of it. You just have to start! Go walk for 15 minutes at a time. Start somewhere.
