Not only CAN you do it, but this time you WILL do it! I fought my family for a long time because I swore there was just no way that I could stick to the plan. I have one BIG HUMUNGO sweet tooth and I crave chocolate bars and ice cream like crazy. When I finally gave in and started MF, I realized that I had made an investment in myself (this coming from a woman who rarely spent money on herself - and always spends on someone else). That investment was the first thing that kept me on plan. When I lost 10 pounds in the first week, that kept me on plan for the following week. Every week after that I lost another 10 pounds and what more incentive did I need? Well this week I only lost 4 pounds, BUT I ran into some folks that didn't know about my new life style. The daughter is about 14 and she just kept looking at me real strange like (up and down and up and down). Well they walked away and then came back a little later and I asked them if they noticed anything. The mom said that the daughter asked her when they walked away if she had noticed all the weight I had lost. I almost cried because that was the first time someone outside my family said anything. It felt great and will get me through the next week.
Sorry this is so long, but what I am getting at is that you can find inspiration in the littlest things. You NEED to. When you can't you just jump on MMT and look for it here. If that doesn't work then you just PM or email me and I will give you that loving kick in the pants to get you through.
YOU WILL SUCCEED THIS TIME!!!!!
