Slackin :(

So guys and gals, I have let myself down a little. I have fallen into my old ways and given myself every excuse not to eat right and exercise. I have officially dropped 35 pounds and I am at 240!! No celebrating yet....that is only because the work I did do has caused my stomach to shrink therefore I don't eat as much. I have let the stress that I am dealing with cause me to lose focus. I have made bad food choices and decided that sleep is more important that getting my butt up and running. Well......NO MORE!!!! I AM going to lose 100 pounds by March 2014!! I only have 65 more pounds to go, thats a little over 8 pounds a month. I have already been doing that. Here's the deal...I need new motivation, obviously. What are some ideas you guys have??? I am open to suggestions. Whatever they may be. Be tough on me guys!! And........GO!!!

    Join a gym with a tough trainer. That is what I have done now. Maybe with the surgery, gym a trainer and most of all praying I can get through this also. We have the same goal which is a Life change and God has to be at the forefront.

      You are absolutely right, God has to be the forefront!! I know without him none of this is possible. I actually am thinking about joining a gym. Im adjusting my budget right now to accomplish that. Keep up the good work Edwina, I have complete faith in you and the work God is doing in your life! Love you!

    One of my favorite quotes I've seen is "When you think about quitting, think about why you started." I'm kind of in the same boat you are. In my head I haven't been slacking, but I haven't lost over 10 pounds in the past 2 months. I can't get past it. I've been hitting the gym, doing good with my diet, but I don't see results with that good behavior. Whats keeping me going is the reason I started, I cannot let my health go downhill again. Because of that, I have to keep going, just a little harder than before, being stricter on my diet, and more time exercising (ok a lot more!). So my advice is to think about why you started in the first place, and keep going! Your doing great!

    Laura, you honey are amazing!! I am so incredibly proud of you and the things you have accomplished! I know that each and everyone of us has it in us to keep pushing. I also know that each one of us will stumble and fall, and its what we choose to do with that stumbling block that truly shows our strength. You talk about how I have motivated you, the truth is you help keep me going. I don't want to let you down so I keep pushing myself. I have a new idea to spice things up a bit. How about we (and anyone else who wants to join us) get together once a month and do our own 5k. At a track or a park or where ever. Let me know what you think. You are amazingly beautiful and you got this honey!! Thanx for picking me up when Im down!
