It is SO MUCH FUN to see all of the goals everyone sets and all the successes! It is very helpful to me to know that we can do this TOGETHER!
I am so inspired when I see that someone did not make a goal but then they keep on trying and trying and trying.
Remember you only fail if you quit! So keep chipping away at your goals one tiny piece at a time.
I am very excited for my goals the month of December. I am coming up on my 1 year anniversary of the day I started my really serious weight loss. I am hoping to weigh 170 on January 7, 2016. That will be 100 pounds lost in 1 year!
I may not quite make that goal on time, but I don't really care because the REAL VICTORY is that I never dreamed that I would be exercising regularly, running 5Ks, going to a gym, lifting weights, going to Zumba and Aqua-fit classes, and learning how to eat well and take great care of myself over the past year!
This is all completely new for me and I did it by focusing on it one day at a time. Many days it's just 1 meal at a time!
When I started, the pounds were everything, but I have learned that taking care of ME is the most important thing I can do for myself and my family.
So, welcome to everyone who is just getting started and congratulations to all you who had a successesfull month of November.
LET'S FINISH 2015 WITH A HEATHY DOSE OF POSITIVE SPIRIT AND GO INTO 2016 DOING A VICTORY DANCE!!!!
Wow, You have done so well. You must be so proud of what you have achieved, welldone. I hope that I can lose 2 stone by making little changes and definitely changing my lifestyle. I am trying to eat healthy food and move more, even standing up instead of sitting down, do more chores etc. Just to let you know that your weight loss journey has really inspired me.0 -
