| Some inspiration 4 me -- Saturday March 26 |
| 03.26.05 (1:14 pm) [edit] |
So, hands up who has tried losing weight at least a thousand times before with little success? Yup, me too. Over the last couple of years I've rejoined WW probably 4 times (no kidding!) in an attempt to lose weight. And each time, I've lost very little, and at around Week 8 I start feeling like a total failure cos I've paid out something like $120 and lost more weight off my wallet than my backside.
But WW did work for me once before. A few years ago, it helped me lose 17kgs. I've been looking through some piccies today and found some oldies of skinnier me... and I'm so mad at myself. How did I allow myself to fall off the wagon after trying so hard and getting most of the way there?! I only had about another 10kgs to lose back then, and now I've put it all back on (in fact, I'm heavier now than I was when I started back then... depressing huh?)
I could get really bogged down in the fact that the weight has piled back on, and that I haven't been able to lose any of it since then... but that would be the easy option. Instead, I'm going to try to focus on the fact that I did it back then, and there's no reason I can't do it again! The reason WW hasn't worked over the last few years is because I wasn't ready to make the changes... now I am, and I'm more motivated than I've ever been! So I'm going to keep looking at these piccies, knowing I'll soon be even slimmer than I was then.

Read it
Welcome to my journal! I'm a 23-year-old Melbournian, magazine-lovin', creative, scrapbooking-addicted health nut in training. I work as a guidebook editor for travel publisher Lonely Planet, and live in a cute 'n' cozy apartment in Richmond with my gorgeous boy, Miles.
This journal is my refuge, my confessional, the place I come when I need motivation or support on my journey to a healthier me. Thanks so much for reading!
