February Review & Mission March Is On!
At the end of January I set some goals for February and shared them on the blog. Now that it is the end of February I have to report that the month did not go as planned for me.
The month started off challenging, but thankfully I am feeling in a good place now both physically and emotionally.
The first 2 weeks, were basically wiped out with the flu in our house. Because of this I made the decision to not follow total food replacement at this time. Then in the 3rd week of February the kids were off school. We also had a birthday to celebrate so I felt it was best to restart after this time.
Due to the events of February, I have been following our New You Switch Plan this month, and maintained my weight, which to be honest with I am happy with but also I am a bit frustrated, as I really wish I was another stone down! But I have to accept that I did not achieve my goal and put my focus on doing my best in March.
My kids and I are well and healthy, and I am very grateful for that. We had the most amazing time for my daughters birthday, and now is the right time to refocus and get back on track.
I feel such a surge of motivation to get back to New You Total and make a big shift in my weight between now and Easter. In January 2020 I sat a goal to lose 3 stone before Easter in 2020.
I am currently 1 stone down, and there are 6 weeks to Easter. In the past I have succeeded at losing 2 stone in 7 weeks. I know it is possible to get very close to 3 stone off, so I want to give it my best shot.
I have read in our support group that a few others have had a challenging February. It is important to remember that success doesn’t always happen in a straight line, but we have to keep striving to get back on track and head in the direction of our dreams!
I hope you will be join me on a big MISSION MARCH, to make the most of every day and achieve as much as possible this March.
My Progress on my February Goals;

On 27th December 2019, I decided I would blog every single day until 31st December 2020. In February I themed by blogs with the February love theme. I will be continuing my daily blogging in March, as well as being a lot more active in our secret slimmers community.
I hope you will come and join us.
