Hi girls!!
Right.... the rules:
1 No big goals.
2 No failing.
3 No guilt trips.
Our goals need to be realistic. It freaks me out to think I need to lose 10 stone. That's 140 pounds - it's a WHOLE PERSON!!!!
Therefore I propose that we make ourselves realistic goals. Ignore the final hurdle; the first hurdle is my first half a stone.
7 lbs.
No failing: if you put on any weight, then IT IS ALRIGHT. It will come off again.
We will try our best to keep our weight going down, but if it has a blip, then it has a blip - no big deal, ok?
I am sick and tired of putting myself on and feeling guilt tripped by people because I put a pound or two on this week.
NEWSBREAK: it doesn't matter in the big picture!
Focus on the positives.
We will encourage each other as we muddle along together, agreed?
Here is our inspiration to keep going:
Only One Pound
Hello! Do you know me? If you don't, you should. I'm a pound of fat. And I am the happiest pound of fat that you would ever want to meet.
Want to know why? It's because no one ever wants to lose me; I'm ONLY ONE POUND, just a pound!
Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds, or fifteen pounds, but never only one.
So I just stick around and happily keep you fat. Then I add to myself, ever so slyly, so that you never seem to notice it. That is until I've grown to ten, twenty, thirty or even more pounds in weight.
Yes, it's fun being ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT, left to do as I please.
So, when you weigh in, keep right on saying, "Oh, I only lost one pound." (As if that were such a terrible thing) For you see, if you do this, you'll encourage others to keep me around because they'll think I'm not worth losing.
And, I love being around you - your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips and every part of you.
Happy Days!!! After all, I'm ONLY ONE POUND OF FAT!!!
