In A Slump

[KMO22 1]

I really really wanted to get to my goal of losing 100 in a year.. My anniversary date is April 25th... so 15 days.. I have lost 85. These last 15-20lbs are killing me. I went a period right after Christmas where I stopped working out as hard..it was really affecting my marriage and time with the family, I really became OBSESSED with working out. I have gainned about 5lbs and I just cannot get motivated to hit it again. Just need to get that drive back.. Any pointers or advice??

Sounds like you know what you have to do. You are a sucess!!

So grit your teeth and tie up those shoes and get to work. You CAN do this!!! Just keep telling yourself "failure is not an option" if you are stumbling on certain foods...get them out of the house. Don't self-sabatage yourself this close to your goal!!

I know you can do this!!! Let us know who you are doing.

If you find your drive can you send mine home while you are there, i think they must be hanging out together. Mines been missing for a few months now. I am not giving up hope because it usually returns eventually. As long as i can maintain my weight while waiting i am happy. Having said that, i have put on a little bit over Easter.

We will achieve our goals.

Wow! I hear you girl!! I've lost 85 and my bandiversary is June 27th. I have lost only 5 lbs in the last 6 or 7 weeks. I, like you, want to hit 100 by my one year mark! I am now doing 1 hour of cardio every day, but the scale is not cooperating! I think the last 20 will be the hardest to get off NO MATTER what we do! Good luck! Keep fighting!!

Stop being so hard on yourself.

You have lost 85lbs in a year. That is HUGE. Appreciate what you have done and realise that if you don't get to 100 in a year it doesn't matter. It's not a race, there is no cut off date. If it takes 13 months or 14 months then so be it.
