Can't Seem to Get the Party Started club...need help getting motivated please!

[miriamm]

Ok. I've done this nearly every single day for the past two weeks and I'm so embarrassed but I can't seem to get started. I wake up thinking that 'today is the day' but then I give in to the temptations around me or think of a lame excuse why today is not a good day to start...Which I know anyday that you wake up and your BMI is not a healthy amount is a GREAT day to start getting you act together.

I weight 225 (!!!) pounds. It's a hideous number, I know. It just crept up on me and now I'm disgusted with myself. I deserve better. I must must lose at least 60 pounds by Dec/Jan. Can anyone help me get motivated? I am praying that tomorrow I will wake up with a great attitude and start this for real. I feel so unhealthy and don't even want to think about what I look like.

Please see my Weight Loss Diary for some amusing details about my quest for weight loss.

...HI hun....!!! ....why tomorrow?!?!....take it MEAL by MEAL...hour by hour..cup of water by cup of water...

...don't wait until tomorrow....TODAY is already tomorrow if you wait...SO DON'T!!

....I always tell myself : Take the FIRST STEP, the rest WILL FOLLOW!!!

.....I realized that a journey isn't made up of huge strides, but instead it's made of many small accumulated steps.

......Each step, each squat, each bite you leave remaining on that plate, each sip of water you take, each everything....IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO BECOMING THE PERSON YOU WANT TO BE....don't cheat yourself and underestimate the POWER of a SMALL STEP!!! YOU CAN DO IT!! ....I'm rooting you on!!!
