No negative talking to yourself. Why couldnt it happen? Did you ever think you would be losing weight or running in the first place? Look at you now! You go, girl!

I'm staying on plan today because I've lost 8 of the 10 pounds I gained on vacation last week and I want to be back to what I was before vacation when I go to WW on Saturday.

Rockinrobin, and so many of you are a great inspiration, you really have got it together. Thanks for posting as much as you do.

I am so proud of you! I've often told myself "Girlfriend, if you can quit smoking, you can do anything!" Sunshine, if you can go 10 days, you can go forever! Keep going.

Im staying on track as Im going to New York in 6 weeks and want to be alittle thinner. Right now Im scared I will be too fat for the plan seat

And in May Im going to my old friends who lives quite far away, 30th birthday and I want to be a couple of sizes smaller and much healthier as I get to meet my beautiful nephew (well not really but she has no brothers or sisters and has very sweetly asked me to be aunty which I love!!!) So I want to be thinner and healthy to play with him.

Default The ONE reason I'm staying on plan today is:

My kids have been my biggest cheerleaders by far. They are so excited and happy for me. My middle one, who's 17 hugged me a while back and said to me "Ma, you're so small" She's continued to see that sporadically to me and I told her, that I LOVE when she says that. Now she hugs me every day and tells me that every day - without fail. When they get home from school they want a low down on how I did for the day. Food wise, exercise wise. They look forward to my Monday weigh-in day just as much as I do and never fail to ask me "So ma, how much did you lose this week?" And then they go onto tell me how amazing I am. They are super excited every time I make a new clothing purchase and demand a fashion show so that they can ooh and ahh at me. Not a day goes by where they don't tell me how beautiful I am. Not a day goes by where they don't compliment me on how I look and how proud they are of me. Not a day goes by where I don't wonder how could I have cheated them of having a fit and trim, happy and healthy and active mother.

So yes, this weightloss is for me, first and foremost, but running neck and neck this weightloss is most definitely for my 3 cheerleaders. My 3 gifts from G-d. The 3 most important people in the world to me. And I will stay on plan today for them. And everyday hereafter as well.

Hi Robin,

It is awesome that your girls are so encouraging...that is great motivation. My youngest daughter, she's 7, keeps telling me that she doesnt want me to get skinny because she loves my soft hugs!

My One reason for today: Because I dont really 'feel' like dieting today. Today is one of those learning days.....lifestyle vs diet.

The one reason I'm staying on plan today is because I'm hooked! It's become something I'm actually INTERESTED in. I want to see how far I can go with this (I don't mean how thin I can get -- I mean how strong and healthy I can be). Is it possible for me to run a marathon one day? I don't know -- but I'm staying on plan because I want to find out!

The one reason I'm staying on plan today is because I'm not a quitter. I have succeeded in almost every other area of my life. Why can't I win at this?
