Moodflowers, when you pick up a pound of sugar etc it feels like a lot, that is what you are no longer carrying this last 2 weeks. And 10lb, imagine walking around all day carrying that much weight? You are doing really well, I am looking forward to being at that stage!

Moonflowers

Thanks Sian, when you put it like that, it IS good, isnt it?!

Check this out moonflower
There is a good idea on there to keep you motivated, get yourself 10lb of something and put it in a bag, feel how heavy that is. After next weigh in, add another lb or whatever you have lost and see how heavy it is!

Moonflowers

what a great idea!
thanks for that Sian

Loving the motivational techniques from you Sian!

I also look at my weightloss - try not to think about my ridiculous gains these last few weeks and focus on the total loss otherwise I really think I'd lose it completely and you wouldn't see me for dust! Or mounds of chocolate

Hiya hot.chick this is a GREAT board! My vices are also eating out, wine and sweeeeeeet things!! Desk drawer is full of WW bars, WW cookies, chocolate cereal bars and fruities! Not that it helped last week and Moonflowers - I don't buy them other poeple do and my will power appears to have eloped.
