OK - time to fess up...
I've been using all my old excuses and am sick of whinging about the sore neck - poor me, poor me, poor me!
I can't lose these last few kgs for one reason only - I'm making bad choices. Since Xmas I've been up two down two, just erring ever so carefully on the up though of course - story of my life.
So I've signed up for another round of 12WBT! I'm excited and shit scared at the same time. I went 12 weeks without a coke (love of my life) the first time I did the program. I'm hoping to find that level of dedication again so that I can get to my goal and then play the up two/down two game from a better starting point!
Don't stress - I won't be boring you with all the gory details and taking gym selfies but I'll check in at Week 4, 8 and 12 and report my progress. Be it good bad or just down right ugly.
The first time I did the program I had a team of helpers backing me - keeping me honest and listening to all my adventures. It was easy to follow as I was so desperate not to let them down. I shared the good the bad and the ugly and everything in between and the weeks just flew! And look what I turned into...
The second time I did the program I followed the food only as I couldn't move - literally. But it still worked and I still lost weight. I got oh so close to that elusive goal in my head and then launched into Xmas mode, holiday mode, Dunsborough mode, Easter mode, study mode, exam mode, winter mode etc etc. So it's time to bite the bullet and get back on the horse. I will have to get through another exam during this 12 weeks which will probably be my biggest test!
Through doing the 12WBT with my old pal Houghy last year I've been so lucky to 'meet' some of her online friends from her Mothers Groups. All of us started having weight loss or fitness goals but the group has become sooooo much more than that. It's amazing how close you can become from afar with the power of technology these days and I consider these girls amongst my closest friends now. When something exciting happens I can't wait to share it with them all. And of course when something bad happens we are all there for each other too. This sums up the girls perfectly:
In fact things were getting so heated in the friendship department that we decided to make it official - we have our own lotto club. When we win we are off to Vegas! We have envisaged the Today Tonight interview, sipping champas in the back of the limo as we discuss how we all 'met'. These girls are incredible and when we have that big win I won't even know where to start with who to hug first! We have our own wrist bands ready too!
So I'm all set really - just putting it out there for some local support! If you see me at IGA please feel free to check over my trolley contents and discard any Tim Tams or Coke. And if you see me exercising...well...try your best to block the vision out. It won't be pretty.
Now to empty the cupboards and drink as much coke as possible before kick off on Monday 12th! Wish me luck...
Ha ha ha GOLD!!!!!! You can do it Molly you know you can.
