Look we all have to find what works for us individually. God didn't create any of us exactly the same. I know only for me what worked before really never stuck because my motives were very bad.....i also know my personality, i'm crazy......it's like when i tell myself i CAN'T have something....my rebellious fiesty me says "OH YEA>>>>>WATCH ME" lol thus my past ways never working....
Now....this morning I REALLY challenged myself.....
last week i walked for only about 15 minutes in the morning....didn't even break a sweat but just wanted to kinda condition my head to do SOMETHING activity wise each day.....
NOW today....i took this whole 200lb angie and (BTW my back yard is my old high school I graduated from MANY moons ago) and a beautiful brand new track that is so awesome, easy on the legs, marked every few hundred feet and has 5 lanes....it's truly awesome
SO this morning I decided to feel like I was in high school again (OH I HATED gym in high school...how humiliating) and I went four times around the track (it's 1/2 mile one lap) jogged 1 full lap and a 1/2....brisk walked the rest ended my last 400 feet running....
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT???????? 200 LB MAMMA RUNNING....LOLOLOLOL
If you want some tough love, how about looking up some statistics for weight loss and maintenance?
Those are some tough odds to beat - do you really think you can do it?
Well, do ya?
(Hint: to make this technique more effective, do not, I repeat, do not visit the 3FC maintainers forum... 'cause that will give you tons of totally unproductive hope and good vibes )
I have been at 3FC for almost a year now. I have seen so many people come here, full of hope and determination, who abruptly quit. This is a very, very difficult thing to do and incredibly hard to do long-term. If you are like most of those newcomers, you will post here for about a month or so, then quit and never return.
So, how 'bout it? Are you going to be like Faerie, posting about your tremendous accomplishments at this time next year, or will you be more like those whose names I don't even remember?
It most assuredly can be done. As Heffalump says, our maintainers' forum is full of people who are proving that to us every day. But - do you have it in you to become and then stay a maintainer, or will you join the faceless millions who keep saying "I need to do something about my weight" without actually doing it?
There are 84,820 members here at 3FC. The maintainers board has how many, maybe 30 people who post there regularly? So what does that say about your chances of making it there?
I have only been here a about a month and have already seen quite a few come and go! Are you one of them?? Do you have what it takes to stick around, because obviously too many have the when the going gets tough, the tough go to the cookie jar mentality. How bout it? Do you think you can hang with the "big dogs"???
Are you going to be one of the people who stays around till next new year's eve and feels good about having made life changes BEFORE the new year? Or are you going to give up this Friday?
Are you going to look into 2009 when it comes around and regret the life you've lived? Most people do - it takes A LOT OF WORK to stick to healthy choices.
Truly...someone Tell Me I Will Not lose weight And I Will Fail........don't Laugh
