Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
So good to see everyone doing so so well!!! Good going! As for me, well... I lost 16.5kg's, then went away on holiday and went off the program (sigh) and from then really battled to get back on, I maintained very well though, for about 2-3 months, and then I started getting more and more relaxed and eventually picked up 5kgs. I really don't want to undo all my hard work. Every Monday I try to get back on, but I fail, my heart is just not in it. I then realised that i've neglected to come to the forum during this time, so decided that I'm coming back, back to the forum and back on the program!! Stake in the ground today, I have to lose the rest of my weight before the silly season start. Today is going ok-ish so far, but I am battling, I think I must read through my program again, and I am going to start reading your diaries from top to bottom, because there is no better motivation than that!

Re: Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
well done Lizelle, the forum is so inspiring. Don't give up, you only have 12.2 to lose - imagine how good you will feel at Christmas in your new clothes, looking a million dollars. ZQ

Re: Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
Hi Liz,
I believe many on here can have their own words providing a "lift" when times get tough, hence, I recommend them re-reading their own diaries - as well as the diaries of others who inspire them). So, try here :- http://newyouforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12285 That post of yours was such a good idea - have a reread now, feel the emotions that lead you to start that thread, and look at all the great replies from several others. This time around, I would suggest you start a Diary, so that you (and everyone else) know where to "find you" If you like, we can make this thread (link below) into your Diary http://newyouforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12147 If you'd like that, I'll move this into New Diaries, and rename the thread to be "Liz20's Diary". What do you think? Lemme know hey? Or, just start a new thread in New Diaries and we'll go from there - your call. Koh

Re: Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
Hi Liz and welcome back. I have been back on the program for 2 weeks now and on the long weekend somehow ? i fell off the wagon too and undid all the good work i had in the previous 2 weeks. Back to square one.
All is not lost tho, as Justin Beiber sings "Never Say Never" and i am like you keen to lose 12kg, we can do this together Liz. Pandora |

Re: Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
Thank you everyone!! I am so so glad I came back!!
Koh - thanks so much for that! You really made me remember how empowered I felt when I started! I really want to start a diary, but I access the forum from my phone (cause it's blocked at work ) so it's a bit difficult to post and I'm scared i'm going to neglect it... But let me give it a go, even if I only update every now and then. Thanks again for the words of encouragement! You are such an awesome bunch of Cohenites!! Stay strong! |

Re: Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
Welcome back Liz, you have certainly made the right decision in coming back and I for one know how gutsy you have to be to do that.
There are so many people who have come back at the moment, me for one, Maggie Lyn, Wendy, Carrie ? now you, it's almost like a whole group of us who are preparing for summer. We can all do this and we have memories of what went wrong last time which we won't allow to happen again. Right. Do well, we are all here for each other. |

Re: Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
I'm here for a proper round two also!
Got at least 14kg to lose, then will do refeed again, and maintenance properly (I am a silly billy). If all goes smoothly I will be in maintenance in time for my birthday at the end of October, but I am just taking it one day at a time - day 15 for me today. |

Good idea, one day at a time. October is not far away so don't put any pressure on yourself. Don't look to far ahead.

Re: Fell off the bus so badly, but I'm back
Lol I wish. I am on day 15 (well day 16 now), and I still have at least 14kg to lose. I didn't record my starting weight this time around - but I have a fair idea of how bad it got.
