    Well, today is a bad day! I just don't have any motivation, it's just dissappeared completlely :confused:

    I know what I need to do but just can't do it! I am still in my jamas, have done none of my weekend jobs - and have done nothing but eat and sleep for the last 24 hours :o

    How does everybody keep themselves going? I feel a complete failure :mad:

    Thanks Sarah, I don't know what's the matter with me. I feel really low, I could just cry! Made myself get off the sofa and into the shower as I'm going to my Mum's but had a horrible moment with the mirror! I can't believe how fat I have got :o I've always considered myself to be Ok, just a few pounds to lose but that's not the case anymore. I am actually FAT :mad:

    I need to find some focus from somewhre - and PDQ :confused:

    Grrr:mad: I know that feeling:mad: I always think I only need to lose a few pounds until I accidentally catch sight of my reflection and I always think, "surely that's not me":mad: And it's not something you can immediately fix:mad:

    I am feeling very fat at the moment, today is the first day of my low carb diet, I actually lost 2lbs on the detox (would have been 6-7 if I had done it properly, so have 5lbs to go to half a stone, which is one of my 100 things to do, if I am sensible:rolleyes: that could be 2 weeks, then I am getting a pair of jeans as a reward to myself.

    I think the only way I can manage is to set myself small targets with a reward for each one, maybe you could think about doing something like that? Thinking about it as one whole target (mine is about 40lbs) is just too much for me. :o

    Ditto Shoegal and Sarah, I too am officially fat. I caught sight of my reflection and I just look like a fat geek with glassses.

    sigh.

    I am sort of ready for **** tomorrow.

    ((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Feeling exactly the same over here, Buffy:rolleyes: Am having fish and vegetables and fruit tea in a minute. Cannot waste the rest of my 30s feeling like this:mad: I know how to lose weight and I have seen a pair of jeans I like, just need to put the plan into practice, just feels like have been doing this forever:rolleyes:
