Rosemary Conley Online

I have been a member of THIS site, on and off since 2006 - it's fab (and no I'm not being paid for saying this)! I haven't lost weight all the time, not because of this site, but because I'm undisciplined! I am beginning to think that losing weight is 1% about the diet itself and food and 99% mental attitude.

In the past when I have got my head in order (like after having my sons) I've lost 3 stone (approx 20kg, 42lb) - I would love to lose 3 stone again (4 would be better, but 3 would be within my ideal weight range). 

Rosemary hasn't long started posting motivational minute videos about various things and today's was all about day one. I'm not going to go into what was said EXCEPT this:

"Even if your weight loss campaign hasn't reached its conclusion in the past - treat those times as experience."

I think that's right because I live in dread of starting a weight loss regime and then failing - I think psychologically that's why I'm not doing well! BUT if I treat all those past times of not concluding the plan, then I have to treat those times as experience and learn from them!

I do find that it's worse when I psycho-analyze my life - down the minutest detail. So I have to stop analyzing and start losing!

Have a good day readers
