Day 49: Keeping a positive attitude

If you have looked at the most current weigh-in numbers, you may or may not have noticed that I have actually gained a couple of pounds. I am feeling pretty down about it right now, but I know I have to keep a positive attitude about myself or at least try to.

I am especially trying to remain optomistic because I know that I have not been doing what I should be doing and am probably lucky I have not gained more.

I am very pleased to see the progress many of you are making in your striving toward your goals.

We would all like to hear about what you are doing to be successful. If you would like to do so, feel free to comment and let us know what you are doing.

  1. Positive attitude is the key to achieve anything no matter whatever it is! And weight loss is like a roller coaster. Gonna a have gains and loses.

  2. Hi all,

    Well, I have lost 17 pounds so far, and am about 9 pounds away from my target or goal weight.

    Here is what is working for me. Two meals a day: breakfast and supper, (an apple at mid-day if my stomach tells me it is absolutely necessary). One small dessert after supper. No food after 6pm, ever. Excercise: extreme cardio workout at least 3 times a week (running or biking); and lifting weights a couple times a week, on non-cardio days. My workouts rarely last more than 45 minutes.

    I have a full-time job & 2 pt jobs, and also have a family, and am very busy. I don't have a lot of time....so this "system" seems to work for me. But everyone is different, and there are many different good weight-loss systems that would probably work if one simply committed to following them consistently.

    I really want to try to "maintain" my weight loss, and make my little "system" a life-style so that I can live a healthy life for the rest of my years. (This is the hard part for me - staying motivated w/o the contest weigh-ins!)

    Good luck everyone! You can do whatever you set your mind/heart to do!
