Do you think that feeling proud now will stall your efforts?

Think your right, If I pat myself on the back and say well done now, whos to say I will get going again after stopping to say well done ?

I am glad you posted about this. What you shared is exactly what I suggest. Do something-ANYTHING, that you had not previously done as far as exercise. If you gave it ten mins-give it five more.

If you had too many carbs-step it back a bit. I say shake up your schedule. I REALLY believe our bodes can basically go into SHOCK and just sort of sit there dazed! LOL!

Congrats on your Un-stuck!!

Peace,

My weight had sort of stabalised this week - yesterday I went on a mini hill walk and the scales finally moved this morning!!! Down 2 lbs...

What activity do you do to break a plateau?

Topic: Fitness Trainer on Monday
I've made an appointment with a fitness Trainer for Monday - that's less than 48 hours till i commit to working these buns....

I am scared to - I HATE sweating...  I HATE being out of breath....  I HATE my heart racing....

But if id exercise I will get fit... if i get fit I will do none of these things when I am out in public, just walking about the street or walking up flights of stairs to get to my friends flats...  Therefore I'll be more inclinded to do these things and therefore get a LIFE!

Also the whole point of this is to extend my natural life (hopefully)...  Exercise is key to a healthy heart....

Any way in short I am scared, but I am going to do it any way....  That philosopy has got me to quit smoking, get WLS and laser eye surgery - life is looking rosier already... :D

Isn't she though - I have just been on her youtube site to watch a blog...  I can't believe I am looking at a lady who used to weigh more than I do now...  And lost the equivalent to my friend craig in weight... 

Same with you Kate - it blows my mind - AND I am really excited that, that could be me some day....

Topic: RE: Lap Band/Pregnancy Analogy - Just for Fun
No Problem.

I recon that I have given my self a hard time in the past - but that sort of thing just led to more fatness.  Guilt about food and failure go hand in hand... 

So no more giving my self a hard time.  Use the band as a tool - and apply what I learned about conquering cravings when I quit smoking...

At the end of the day if you don't LOVE you then you can't take good care of you...

Glad you liked the analogy :D xxx
