Sorry to hear you’ve been through so much. To be back here you must want it enough, and as you got to week 9, you know you can complete it. Enjoy the rest of your journey.

Sorry to hear you've had a rough time. YOU can do this tho! If I can, anyone can. Just take it steady. Good luck!

I'm in a similar position, got to week 9 last year then life and terrible weather got in my way. Started again on week 2, and I just finished W3 last week. I can't believe how hard I found Week 3!! I'm starting week 4 today, and was just looking here for some inspiration. I suppose, just remember how great yuou felt and how easy it became after week 5 and 6 - but can't expect to get right back there, not with so much extra pizza inside (in my case at least!).

Good luck!! Keep at it!!

Not what you're looking for?
