I'm presently in what I call 'the upswing' which is when I'm working out not yet a lot, but at least 1-2x/week... I'm still not eating the very best, but I find that it's working for me. I can't live when I deny myself everything I want and enjoy. I like food and I like cooking. So what I do is I search out healthy versions/substitutions of recipes I use, and more importantly ones I can live with!<br /><br />I've also found that investing in a personal trainer has helped immensely. I can't seem to keep the commitment I make to myself, but I feel stink if I let him down and cancel my sessions. He keeps me motivated and honest. <br />I'm firming up and slowly the kilos are coming off. <br /><br />He recommended an awesome website (which has also been super helpful) www.myfitnesspal.com <br /><br />Good luck. xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572382432633064458.post-47259984910456196772010-11-27T02:34:06.783-08:002010-11-27T02:34:06.783-08:00I struggle with my weight too.

But I always do feel better after I exercise and eat a healthy meal. I try and remember that. I wish you luck and hope you start feeling better, mentally and physicallyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03431751293876429570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572382432633064458.post-52489226274159325912010-11-24T09:29:27.010-08:002010-11-24T09:29:27.010-08:00You can do this!

I joined weight watchers a few months ago, lost 12kg and for the first time in my life hit my healthy weight range (last week) but I still have a few more kgs til I'll be 100% happy I think. I've tried so many times to lose weight on a bunch of different diets but I think what changed this time is I honestly just did it for me, not for anyone else. <br /><br />I told myself I loved the treadmill for weeks and weeks and weeks until now I actually do genuinely like it, it's me time and I don't have to interact with anybody else (doesn't happen often). The feeling I get afterwards is so worth it and when people start to notice it just gives you more motivation, although hiking up hills from the beach to the car without getting short of breath is honestly motivation enough. I also do a few different classes (with a friend, I'm way too chicken to go alone) we do dance energy and boxfit, I know the benefits for my body are so much more then just how I look, I can open jar lids now that I'm not so dang weak hahaha... oh there's so much more I could say, I have tonnes of healthy recipes that are super yummy and am here to encourage you any time xxchrissybizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11603312473677850502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572382432633064458.post-25881547789451846822010-11-22T22:03:39.522-08:002010-11-22T22:03:39.522-08:00Tillie I am in the exact same position I went to t...Tillie I am in the exact same position I went to the gym and ate right for three months and I didnt lose any weight and now I have given up. I know I will talk myself around again but its just so frustrating. Am always here to talk if you need it. I feel trapped in a vicious cycle sometimes but hopefully we can both break it soon.thegirlhassparkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06691711551857815741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572382432633064458.post-66341423178745717512010-11-22T19:13:14.600-08:002010-11-22T19:13:14.600-08:00No advice, but here if you need to talk.

Hang in there, don't be afraid to ask for help and when you're gonna reach for that choccie bar ask yourself if you really need it... is it going to make you feel better after? :)<br /><br />Life's too short to feel insecure about our bodies and treat them badly.

You are an inspiration. I had my own mome...Tillie,<br /><br />You are an inspiration. I had my own moment such as this. I don't look in the mirror and find myself hideous, but I certainly don't see what other people seem to see - and I'm a huge nerd, so I always worry I'm not engaging, witty or even cool enough.. or thin enough. I hate that I say this-- err, type-- because I know that "it's what's on the inside that counts", but I always feel a twinge around my other friends.<br /><br />It's for that reason that I put a lot of effort into my makeup and ensembles; it gives me a little bit of confidence, even if it is somewhat manufactured. Perfume, a cute outfit and a little bit of makeup allow me to carry my head higher, even make me feel a little full of myself at times (usually when I have a soundtrack). <br /><br />The other day, my family and I were playing WII and I weighted myself. Instantly, it flashed red "overweight", and my mii character got fatter and fatter on the screen. I smiled and feigned amusement, but it killed me. <br /><br />Gosh, it sounds terrible to say that, but it's the truth. I, too, feel like I've hit rock bottom. I suppose the good thing is that there's no where else to go but up?<br /><br />I apologize for the novel I've turned into a comment. I just can really really REALLY relate to every single thing you said in this post. Everything.<br /><br />I love you, missy. You are a doll, you are wonderful, and you are gorgeous, inside and out.<br /><br />Love Always,<br />Amber.Amber Schmidthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16745947398842286537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572382432633064458.post-47018739779340562652010-11-22T18:10:40.202-08:002010-11-22T18:10:40.202-08:00Eat breakfast everyday!

Its so simple to make, good source of protein and tastes amazing. You can add so many different types of veggies to it or just eat it plain!<br />Try and stay away from refined sugars.<br /><br />If you want something to help turn you off bad food, try reading "The China Study". After you find out what all of the bad stuff can do to you, hopefully you will be more inclined to stay away from it! <br /><br />I wish you well, you will do great :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14959510838909280534noreply@blogger.com
