Hi all,
Just reading through some of the posts here..WOW what a great place to come and vent, proclaim or just simply find answers.
I am hoping I can put in my dollar's worth, so here goes....
I started this WOE on Jan 1 2006. As with all New Years Resolutions I was wondering when the whole thing would fall apart.
Well, i am typing this on 9 April 2006 AND I AM STILL GOING STONG!!
Believe me... I am amazed seeing my fingers typing that on this laptop.
I have lost 17kg (sorry, you may have to work out the conversion into pounds) in this time. Again - I have just looked at that figure, and I am shocked. Me? Lost weight? Well, i have.
Well, my dollars worth is this:
1. Consistancy and Patience (just keep going, just keep going - it is SO hard to keep it going sometimes, but it is really worth the long walk)
2. No rough stuff (Keep away from the mock tortilla chips, mock bread, false rice - all that stuff - Stick to natural meats, vegs, salads etc..it is all rough stuff..oh and WATER and then some MORE WATER, and then a little bit MORE WATER)
3. Have faith (the results WILL happen - everyone is different, it make take months or years BUT IT WILL HAPPEN - I should rephrase that.. IT HAS TO HAPPEN!!!)
You hear about so many weight loss stories on this board. And believe me, my first day back on Jan 1, I thought that i could never do it. Well, there are many on this board that HAVE lost weight...
And I am proud to say I am one of them.
And so will you.
Peace
