If at first you don't succeed....

[Fortynfedup]

Hi all.

I joined a month ago and failed miserably.

Starting again today and weigh 13 stone 7 pounds. I'm feeling quite upbeat and positive so I'm hoping this is it.

I'm going to try not to get in my own way. I keep telling myself I can't but the truth is I have before and can do again.

I'm planning to try the bellydancing video tomorrow lol and for now I'm going out for walk with the dog.

Good luck everyone.

Don't say you failed. Tell yourself you looked at it the wrong way so now you will take another look and try a different way. Then reassess what you did last time. You 'çan' do it. You just have to find the way that clicks. And don't push too hard too soon

Your right, last time I didn't write it down. This time the good, bad and the ugly is going in my journal to keep me honest. Day 2 and so far so good. Tomorrow will be a challenge as I'm going to cousins for lunch and alcohol. I know she will encourage me to make good choices, it's just me I have to control lol. How's your weight loss going?

[kiwikyd-nz in reply to Fortynfedup]

Good work Use any support you can get. I'm a serial weigher (every morning) so my first week was a 3.5kg loss but for the past three days I have stayed at the same weight lol. I did have a couple of hot chocolate drinks from the machine at work so I figure the sugar is causing some fluid retention. Keeping off sugary drinks for a while.

Looking forward to seeing your weeks weigh in.

Stay positive and take one day at a time. I find it helps to plan my meals in advance and log everything in MFP.

Good luck on your journey! 😀

Tell us about the bellydancing... dying to hear all💗

[Fortynfedup in reply to 13Valerie]

It's on the NHS Choices website and you search for bellydancing for beginners. They have instructional videos for those who need to workout at home. My daughter tried it with me. It's so much fun but im sure I won't be able to move tomorrow as I've never used any of those muscles before lol.
