Because my scales were broken utterly and then the new/old ones rediscovered my children delighted in weighing themselves. If only that’s how I felt! Both LH and I didn’t join in their game!
R who is 9 weighs 4st9lbs and M who is 6 weighs 4st1lb. I found this an incredible visual. Without explaining to them what I was doing, I picked up each one and carried them around the room for a bit (which they enjoyed!) Oh my! When I put them down, I felt so much lighter! They were pulling me down, there’s no way I could carry them all day. But I am carrying more excess weight than R weighs every single day. Anyone who doesn’t have kids, go find yourself a small child to carry around for a bit. You’ll make their parents happy (provided you give them back afterwards, I’m not condoning kidnapping).
When it seems hard, I can remember that feeling of putting down R and the relief in my body. When I lose this weight I will have so much more energy.
I’ll be unstoppable!!
You are unstoppable already. Once you loose the weight, you’ll be doing everything at the speed of light.

I say once you believe you’re unstoppable, you are! So believe it! It’s so fun comparing kids to weight loss. As you lose weight, and hit certain milestones, you can compare it again!
