Letter to myself

Dear Donna,

You did it!!! You signed up for your 16th round. I have a few questions I want you to answer honestly.

So how are you feeling about rejoining 12WBT

If I'm completely honest with myself I'm totally freaking out. You would think by now I would have it all figured out but I don't I'm really scared that I'm going to fail. I seem to start of perfectly but then it goes downhill from there. Right now I'm really angry & frustrated with myself.

Why do you feel this way?

When I weighed 120kg I promised myself that I would never get back to that person. Even though I'm nowhere near to where I used to be it scares me. I am noticing my old patterns are creeping back in & I'm scared & embarrassed. I know what it felt like when I lost 50kg & I want to feel like that girl again.

What do  you feel the biggest challenges are going to be for you this round? 

The biggest challenge for me will be my mindset. I don't like myself at the moment & the negative thoughts & feelings that I about myself get me down & that's when I crave junk food. I use I'm too busy as an excuse because I know I'm not.

What will it take to overcome these challenges?

I think if I'm going to overcome this I need to be kind to myself. I'm going to to try & write 1 positive thing about myself or something I proud of daily. I need to stop hiding myself away & just get myself back out there.

What achievement (s) will make you the proudest?

To be honest & as embarrassing as it might sound, I think just getting out of bed at a reasonable time will be one of my proudest achievements at the moment. I'm going to take each day as it comes & I know if I can keep my nutrition to 99% that would make me proud.

Who will be your main supporters?

I have learnt that I don't need to do this alone. My friends who I have met through 12WBT know & understand how hard this weight loss journey is & I know I can reach out to them & not feel as embarrassed.

What words of encouragement would your friend or loved one give you right now & at the start of this journey?

Donna it is going to be okay
We are here for you
Take one step at a time
We understand.

Best wishes for this round. I know you can do this

Love Donna xx
