Does Robbie Williams motivate you?

Hello,

today I spent six hours and four minutes trying to get tickets to see Robbie Williams reunited with Take That in Cardiff; fortunately, I can now announce that I was successful and I am the proud owner of four tickets for the 15th June 2011!

Now, you might be wondering what the hell this has to do with my sleeve... well the 15th June is around two weeks before my first year anniversary - I was sleeved in the 3rd - and so while I was sat here waiting and waiting, trying and trying to get tickets it dawned on me that I might be goal, or near goal for the concert!!

How cool would that be... to be a healthy bmi, to wear what I want to and to see my pop hero!!!

I suppose my ultimate motivation will now be this concert and to get to goal for it and get those skinny jeans...

So ladies and gents... if Robbie Williams isn't your motivation... who or what is?????? :rolleyes:

Size 6 pants ... I have 1 pair of slacks and 1 dress that size - others are Smalls and 8s. My motivation is to get size 6 80% of the time. LOL!

Hiya Coops, phew sooooooo pleased that you managed to get tickets to see our boy & his mates!!!! What a nightmare, was thinking about you this am and keeping fingers crossed. I'll warm them up for you on the 7th LOL!!!

As I'm due for my op Dec 7th, I'll be 6 months out in June. Although I won't be at target, I will be using the " Power of the Williams " to help and inspire me !!!!

Last year when I went to see TT in Manchester, I felt a bit uncomfortable " letting myself go " NO CHANCE of that next year, I'll be as near to the front as I can get, within grabbing distance LOL !!!!!

We may have to contact himself when we both reach target to thank him in person for his help !!!!

Well we can dream anyway, can't we LOL

Best wishes Angela x

Hey Ange... yea I defo think we meed to meet up to thank him personally!!

Just imagine at the concert we will both be getting jiggy with it...

I am going to do a mood board type thing to take to the gym with me, in it will be my ticket along with a picture to help with 'the power of the Willimas' lol, and all the things that I want to do and things I want to wear when I am at target.

So, I will put a pair of size 10 (UK) Bench jeans, a bikini, a squash racket and so on! Fingers crossed that by then it will become reality! xx

I think its a great idea for an incentive!! Go for it!

My incentive is a shopping trip (back in the UK) once I settle at a weight.... be that at target or lower.... I've already hit one of my incentives - which was to get into some leather bike trousers..... which I got off Ebay on the promise they were a size 16... infact I'm able to wear a size 12 now on my bottom half so the measurements must be way off a size 16!!
