On-wards being paid to lose weight

So following on from my last blog about what could possibly motivate us and keep us motivated In whatever we do but at the moment I'm tackling weight loss. I had decided that even being given £1000 a pound lost (still would be nice though :-) I would sabotage myself by putting on weight so I could make more money.  Funny that just makes me greedy in every sense. Greedy about money and greedy about food. Nice thought!
Anyway I had a conversation with my husband (conversations with him rarely go the way I intend but hey that's what keep life interesting) I said to him I think you should sponsor me  10 a kilo I lose to keep me motivated. Bare in mind my husband is a little strange about money and didn't like the idea of me saving the money I didn't spend on smoking.   Anyway I expected him to shoot me down and much to my delight his answer was I will give you 15 for every kilo you lose. Now I know there are several ways to take that as in: Gosh he must really want me to lose weight or what I chose to think he is really supporting me. 
       

So I started the Dukan Diet on Monday and yesterday finished my 5 days attack phase. Official weight in on Monday (today is Saturday) and I have lost 3 kilos 

They are the 3 kilos I put on this stop smoking quest, 3 weeks ago but it's still an AWESOME boost. 


Will do another blog re Stopctober no smoking but for now it's all about the bass or the weight loss. 
Well pleased with myself and this time gonna feed my motivation not starve it. 
So how am I gonna feed my motivation?
One - I'm gonna get paid YEAH - 
To stop me slipping my husband it coming up with potential penalties for weight gain. I really hope I never put on weight :-D 

Two  - I am holding myself accountable this time. This is the feeding of my motivation. Keep it in the forefront of my mind why I'm dong this?
 For my heath, to look better and most of all to feel better. 
One thing that really struck me this time is, I did an online calculation of how long it would take me to reach my ideal weight and it said 5 months. At first I was so disappointed and ready to give up before I started as it seemed so long away and I can literally put on 5 kilos in a weekend. Forget that so called experts say this is impossible I have done it and done it many times. So in reverse I want to lose 5 kilos in a weekend now that is impossible well it is for me and it is at my current age pretty sure I could do it when I was younger but that may well be the reason I'm where I am today. OK so I thought, those 5 months are going to pass anyway and on March 1st 2016 is gonna come no matter what.  I can choose to still be 20 kilos overweight or I can chose to be my ideal weight. It is really that simple, it is just a choice. Am I gonna be moaning come March or am I gonna be celebrating? My choice. So that's whats in my head. The time is passing anyway I can do this, I am doing this and come March I will have done this.
Over and out for now. Big Hugs.
