I finally got pissed off at myself enough

This is it.  These last 20lbs are history.  I'm below my pre-pg weight thanks to WW but I've fallen off the wagon BIG time.  I realized, that in my case (and I know everyone is different so save your flames.) I am my own worst enemy.  There is no reason for me to be this self conscious and miserable about how I look.  No health problems.  No reason other than pure laziness.  I'm set to kick my own ass and finally be happy with how I look.

    Yes

    I feel the same way. I am also my own worst enemy. I'm trying to change that so my kids don't pick up on it.I have like 40lbs to lose now since I gained 10lbs.

    I'm so there with you!  I was looking at photos of myself from when DH and I started dating and I was so skinny!  I started crying when I thought about how much I've let myself go.  Sat was the first day of my new lifestyle in which I work out and don't eat crap!  Here's to continued determination to both of us!

    Last week I had the same realization.  It's not the end of the world, and in general I'm happy with how easily the first 28 lbs came off, but I'm getting really tired of these last 9.  I lost the first 28 in 2 weeks, then nothing since.  I've been working out recently, but I know myself & my love for carbs is the culprit.  I think I'm finally ready to kick my bad eating habits- hopefully!

    Good luck!

    its so empowering to feel sexy and KNOW you look good.  you will feel great once you hit your goal.  i know when i hit my goal (right before BFP last year) i felt like a zillion bucks because a) i felt great about myself and b) i set a goal, worked towards it, and achieved it!

    I can't wait to feel like this!  DH is so supportive and tries so hard to make me feel good about myself but until I feel good about me, I can't take his compliments to heart.  Its on!  :)

    That's great that you are back on the wagon.  Sometimes it feels like you have to hit rock bottom before you get serious. 

    In the last 6 mths I've lost 15 lbs on WW.  I'm like, that's it!?!?  I've lost 30 in 6 months before.  I'm just not motivated and I cheat way too much.

    Good for you.

    I decided the same thing when I had to buy new pants for school. I signed up to work with a trainer and I am really really going to try to not let myself eat so poorly!
