Kick me please!!!

Someone give me a nudge please. Give me some encouragment!

As of tomorrow, yep recommended 2nd Jan I will be back to my better eating habits.....she says.

Someone encourage me to stay off the booze. The silly season is coming to an end, and so is my waist line. The waistline that i've worked so hard at for two years, which is now a foot smaller than it was is being washes away by the larger monster.

I'd like to go back to being a saint during the week, and maintaining on a saturday, but some how i'm not seeing sense.

Come on guys, give me some motivation, please :os

Puts on boot kicks elttiks.  Don’t give up you’ve come so far.

Here's some motivation - Look at the picture of you with your daughters....It look like three sisters!  It is really amazing how alike you look!!

Oh and....gives another swift kickto elttiks

Oh girl I love love love my wine. And after counting calories, exercising and all sorts of things I came to the conclusion the reason I was puffy was because of my wine. So I gave it up 21 days ago and I haven't got on the scale but I can feel I am lighter and it is pms time even.

So there's some motivation........A few hours of nightly drinking or a SMOKIN BOD 24 hours a day=)

Happy New Year!

when I got off track and did things that were not so healthy for my body someone dear to me ask me why I was treating myself so badly...those words made me think and rethink...I had never been asked that question before.  As soon as I asked myself why...I changed my habits.  So, I ask you...why are you treating yourself so badly?  YOU'RE WORTH the good health that you deserve!  You have a choice and you CAN make the right choices for you.  The very best to you!

Thank you all. I'm not going to abuse my body any more. I'm going to give myself a kick up the bum, and work round this...

Thanks again, elttiks ~x~

Hey, I'm right there with ya!  DONE with the WINE and BEER!  I'm up 3 lbs in water weight right now from alcohol.  It's just that I had friends over for dinner 2 nights ago and we had a fabulous time and drank plenty of wine.  Then I had beer for the last two days, I'm also finishing all the leftover Pork Roast and Prime Rib that's in our fridge. I mean, I'm not going to throw it out!  Then I went ahead and enjoyed some ice cream and snacks.  I haven't had ice cream in months.  SO, today I'm back on track.  I'm giving you a soft little kick in the behind okay? KICK!  And now I'm taking you out for a walk.  Let's go!  Let's go.  I'm trying for a deficit of 800 today.  And most of this week which means I HAVE to get a tough workout in to have some extra cals to spare.  GOOD LUCK!  

You are going to think I am crazy- but I found that if I make sure to get lots of lean protein and cut down on simple carbs, I don't crave wine as much- I am a chef- wine with dinner is the norm. For me if I don't get enough protein during the day, my 1/2 glass at dinner can become 2-3 glasses. Also, sometimes I mix a little sparkling water with some tablewine to cut it down a little more.

Good luck.

I am also struggling with staying away from the booze! I love to have a beer (or two) or wine with dinner, and I know that it is sabotaging my weight-loss efforts! I have made a vow to only have a drink on Saturday nights (my party night!) and I'm going to hope that it makes a difference! With a beer or glass or wine being 100+ empty calories, surely we will see a difference if we cut it out of our diets!

hey there, there are 2 things that keep me off the booze and bad eating. is easy, hate and fear .... yes, it sounds silly and too simple but it works.

 Hate for the person I had become in the past, hate for the many things i never did becuz of being a fat ass who did not really care about his health, hate for the stupid consolation words "i am like this and i cant change, this is just the way i am" ... WRONG! ... u can be better, u can have goals, u can do whatever the heck u want, that is u right there, on the line, wondering why u need other people to encourage you, when u r the only one able to change what u do and the way u live.

Fear ... o what would it be of us without it, fear to die, fear to fail, fear to be unsuccessful, my personal experience tells me that dead is something inevitable, but is something that will come eventually,  i just want to make my life better and even though i will die some day as we all will, just the fact of knowing that by being healthier i can save myself some extra 10 years...... oh mama im down for it !! ....

And talkin about booze ... wine is awesome, it helps to clean ur arteries, is not bad at all, i usually drink a couple of glasses a week. If you consider urself too weak and cant control urself, u can look for advise, there is nothing wrong with that, one thing is look for help, another thing is look for a way to live ur life through somebody else .... that is just wrong. I hope this helps !! i am on the same journey, i have been up and down so many times that i cant tell nomore .... fat, slim , fat, slim again, it sucks ..... but without these journeys my life would probably be so boring ..... so keep up and dont give up, never give up or give in .... U R STRONGER !!!

 PEACE.
