Introducing my..."I KNOW I CAN!"

Happy Easter Y'all! You already know, when my blog posts begin to slack...my fight to stay in control rages ON! And rather than blog, I suffer in silence. Yes folks, I still continue to struggle with staying on track and focused on my goals. I desperately need a motivation makeover. Lately, I seem to long for that January 1st New Year's spark that ignites my enthusiasm and discipline in regards to attending meetings, tracking my points, and measuring my portions. Truth be told, I missed my weigh-in and meetings two weeks in a row:-(

Despite my waning motivation, I do know one thing, I MUST PERSEVERE! If you recall, my 20 year reunion looms around the corner, August 6th to be exact! HELP! Does anyone have a cure for my low motivation diagnosis? 

In efforts to refocus, I try to remind myself to "KEEP MY EYES ON THE PRIZE!" I also need to keep in mind that moments of low-mo (low motivation) may creep up from time to time. When the going gets tough, I need to recall how good success feels! By success, I am referring to my non-scale victories or THINGS I CAN DO, that people sometimes take for granted: like cartwheeling in freshly cut grass, keeping up with my son while playing Just Dance2, jogging/walking 6 miles, resisting popcorn and candy at the movies, etc.!

To help cure my latest case of  low-mo I created my I KNOW I CAN! HOW CUTE IS THAT?!?!



I use my I KNOW I CAN to remind myself of what I CAN DO NOW after losing 50+ lbs.
YES, I  PLAN TO SALE MY "I KNOW I CANS!"
What CAN you do?

  1. That Think I Can is really cute! In the beginning, when I first started my weight loss journey, I used to take time each morning or night to fantasize about myself being thin. I would envision myself in as much detail as possible, looking thin, picturing myself doing things I never thought I would do because of my weight. It really helped. Now, when I start to lose focus, I make myself fantasize again about being thin.
