1.hide the bloody scales(REALLY) give them to hubby to hide where you will not go so you REALLY hide them!
2.weigh monthly
3.water

5.try to swap the exersice about weekly so it changes it about.

Sometimes your body needs a rest from losingthe weight time to catch up with it's self if you know what i meen! Give it time it will come back to you! x


good luck babes x

please don't give up.

We need you! I've been losing motivation too and need people like you who have done so much for so long. I've been doing this just 6months and I'm already tired. I'm about half way to where I kinda want to be but not where I SHOULD really be. My body does follow the " 3500 calorie deficit to lose a pound" theory.

Today I was so just sick and tired of being "good" that I went to Bob Evans and had a Country Biscuit breakfast with hash browns. In the past that would send me on a downward spiral of binge eating but because of watching people who have hung in there and lost amazing amounts of weight I know I'll just brush myself off and pick myself back up.

I'm changing things up a bit for a few days. I've been low carb and I picked up bing cherries and such and I'm going to eat just all the fruits and veggies I want for a couple days and plan to eat to maintenance at least today and maybe tomorrow. Then I'll go back to low carb because that's what works for MY body. I may just do some casual exercise for the rest of the week or even take a couple days off in a row.

It's ok to show weakness every now and then. I'm putting away my scale before I break it since I resorted to bouncing up and down on it today like a child when it still didn't move, LOL.

Ever Listen to the song "Stand" by Rascal Flatts? I keep the lyrics by my computer for motivation.

"You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless, like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright

‘Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend ‘til you break
‘Cause it's all you can take

On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you stand

Life's like a novel with the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon with only one way down
Take what you're given before it's gone
And start holdin' on, keep holdin' on

‘Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend ‘til you break
‘Cause it's all you can take

On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, yeah, then you stand

Every time you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place, yeah

‘Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend ‘til you break
‘Cause it's all you can take

Yeah, then you stand
Yeah, baby
Woo hoo, woo hoo
Woo hoo, woo hoo
Then you stand, yeah yeah
