Yes you guessed it... Christmas Day. Its scary how quickly this year has gone.
At the beginning of this year my goal was to lose 30 kilos this year (whilst I do have more than that to lose.) I thought 30 kilos in 52 weeks, that will be easy. Well I can honestly say that it hasn't been easy and I've only lost half my goal weight so far. Half is better than none but I am disappointed with my overall results...
I'd love to be under 90 kilos for Christmas but I'm finding things a real struggle at the moment. I've been home for just under 1 week so far and really struggling to get back into my routine. I keep eating crap and I haven't done any planned exercise since I've been home. Now I don't want to put too much pressure on myself but if I'm to get close to my Christmas goal then I have to pull my finger out and start tracking and exercising again.
Tomorrow is a new day and as I type this I am planning on going back to the gym.. I have also planned my meals out for the day. This is a good start....
Below is a recent picture of me taken in Thailand in front of James Bond Island...
I'm not happy with how I look, especially with the spare tyre around the middle...
I am also not happy with how I feel about myself. I realise that I am the only one who can change my habits and my feels towards myself and I am working on them. Just need to vent some of my frustrations at the moment.
During the past few days all I have been doing is stuffing my face with junk food/crap and not worrying about it, but its not making me feel horrible and unhappy with myself. Today was a better food day but still not a great one. The good thing is that we don't have a lot of crap in the house and I've been taking to Brad about not buying any more crap. We both really need to lose weight.
So I am going to use this photo to motivate me as I never want to look like this again. Next time I go overseas I will be a lot thinner and happier with myself...

So hard to get back on track, but just try a day at a time. Oncce the first day is done, it's helps!
Even though you haven't reached the goal you set, you are still heading in the right direction.
Hey Carlton
You must've had a great holiday! Good on you - you deserved it! So glad to see you back again, though I can imagine it being tricky to get back into the swing of things. Especially after such an awesome time :). Welcome home!
I think you look lovely mate! Good on you for having such a FANTASTIC loss so far this year! Don't put yourself down, you are doing bloody great.
