I am absolutley overwhelmed by the :love: HUGE RESPONSE :love: I've had this week, for the 20lbs by Christmas Challenge!!!!

Obviously you we are all geared up to do ourselves a huge favor and make some life-changing decisions in the lead up to X-MASS 2013 :wink:

Here are some things to get you geared up and keep you going!!

1. in Audiobooks : ERICK BROWN - EXTREME WEIGHTLOSS & TOTAL SELF ESTEEM (Self Hypnosis)

https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/erick-brown-hypnosis/id301238664?albumPage=1#albumPage

LISTEN TO THIS EVERY NIGHT BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP (if you can) :happy: It is fantastic - and we all know, especially at the beginnig of a challenge- it all starts in the mind!!!! :love: :flowerforyou:


2. https://s3.amazonaws.com/tiny-buddha-one/tiny-green-buddha-1920x1080.jpg

From a wonderful and very inspiring website called 'http://tinybuddha.com/'

This is a free inspirational background for your computer desktop, to make you realize that positive and self-empowering thoughts are the key to weight-loss or completing any challenge! Think of yourself as an athlete or tennis-player preparing for the Olympics! Think of the mental strength and focus they need to complete their goals!!!


Love and Hugs to you all- WE CAN DO THIS!!!! More from me later..... :smile:

Yours,

Meowmezzo :wink: :heart:

    Dearest Anna,

    I totally agree!!! Sometimes it is so important to know there are friends out there who are going through the same challenges and daily battles as you are...just hearing about other people staying strong and looking forward to feeling FANTASTIC can be enough to make you realize that cookie is not going to solve any problems and will just pull you down...

    Yay!!! Let's stay strong and keep going!!! I will keep you guys updated on my blog too and will try to post some daily inspriration.... in the mean time, get listening to Erick Brown, he is amazing!

    Love and huge support,

    Mel :-) xxx

    I have been on MFP since Jan 2012 and this is the first group I've joined. Thanks for coming along just when I needed this the most. I have been struggling with the last 20lbs since last Christmas...frustrating! You have opened up the whole side of MFP that I have been missing - community support. Now I think I'm slightly addicted to socializing and sharing on here! ha!

    Thanks again and good luck everyone!

    Dearest Rebecca,

    I totally sympathize with you...the last 20lbs are the most frustrating and definitely the most difficult to get rid of...

    ...have you tried having fun, going tout, taking guitar lessons or learning to ride a horse and just ENJOYING LIFE instead of focusing on the last 20lbs?

    I think when we get towards the end we like to tense up, be impatient and mentally stop the body from carrying on...usually out of fear of succeeding! Believe it or not, it can be quite scary reaching your goal, after months of focusing on weight loss. It becomes our constant goal and something to live for, and once we are almost there we start panicking... so just try letting go and start a hobby you have always wanted to do try. It is time to start living NOW, don't let your weight get in the way!

    Also, listen to the Erick Brown CD I suggested above, it targets your subconscious and makes weight loss a whole lot easier!

    Lots of love and support! :-)

    Thank you Mel for starting this fabulous group! I have downloaded the Buddha....absolutely awe inspiring! Too bad Erick Brown's audio is for Ipads :grumble: ...guess I'll have to wait for a android version.
    Much success to everyone & I look so forward to hearing everyone's cheers of "Yea 20lbs down Baby!!!" If I get 20 off I will be below my goal weight!

    Here's to our success!:drinker:
