I started this journey at 116.9. I began bellydancing 6 days a week, (very unfit, very unmotivated and just didn't want to move at all! )

The first week I lost over 2kg. I was stoked!

The second week, I gained almost all of it back, going back up to 116kg.... yes I cried most of that day. (despite belly dancing and counting calories)

But I still continued on, not giving up this time

Third week? lol another gain, 116.6 I didn't cry this time, but I was pissed.

Fourth week........which is this week, finally saw a loss. 115.5

HELL YEAH........FINALLY, FINALLY FINALLY .

Let me tell you, it was HELL to exercise 6 days a week and wonder if I would just gain again.

Huge lesson I learnt: never fold. Cry all day if you want, like I did, but never fold, keep that fist clenched around your dream and keep going.

Cause eventually our bodies are going to give in and change =)

I truly hope this has inspired someone...anyone!

    I agree 100%. You will never reach your goal if you give up, but I promise everyone they will reach it if they just keep trying!

    Great job on staying with it!

    Very wise advice! It's so easy to slip off track when not seeing results, we just have to stay the course!
