It is time. I have known that this day would come for a very long time, but I knew I would have to find inner drive to take this next step again, or else I would fail. I am still not 100% sure that I have found it, but it is time people it is time. "Time for what?" I hear you think. Weight-watchers people, Weight-watchers(next week).
I am at my heaviest point right now, more than I ever weight. I haven't stepped on a scale for a while now but I know it is bad, unhealthy bad. I have taken maybe 3 photo's of myself the past year, knowing I would look horribly if I would, triple chin and all( and I know how to look slimmer taking photo's and still!!).
This is my 3rd time going to the weight-watchers and both times I lost near the 25 kilo's, but I gained it all and lots more back. So this time I am also taking out the root of my problem. Monday I will see my NEI-therapist again and we will tackle once and for all the emotional reasons why I am always covering up my emotions with food. I am 100% sure if I do both I will succeed and not only that, I will stay slim this time around. I already know that without the NEI it will be the same old same old and I will be blogging about going to weight-watchers again in 2 years from now.
The other thing I want to look into through NEI is that my kids have taking over some of my things with food. One of them is that food needs to be yummy and yummy is not called a vegetable. Pizza, pancakes and fries are the YEAH's here in our house but the rest is called BLEH! So not only do I need to do this for myself but also for my children so that they can grow up with no food issues.
So from next week on I will keep you up to date on how my scale is going down each week.
Tomorrow I have a last minute newborn shoot, and it is a girl, yeah! So far only had boys since the first newborn shoot of Caitlin. Can't wait to try out some of my new pink hats :)
And I leave you with another sneak peek, this time of 8 month old Gene. More HERE.

Good luck to you Corinne ! I know you will succeed. xoxo

I wish you luck Corrine and thought I'd share something that has changed my attitudes towards food & diet and revolutionized how I cook for my family. It's the Eat Clean Diet by Toscha Reno. Here's a link for ya! No more calorie counting, point counting, etc... No more highs and lows...just constant, even energy. Ya'll like pizza and such?, great!... learn how to make it healthier!

Je had het er zaterdag al over ... je weet dat je het kan!!! Dat heb je immers al eerder bewezen.
Super dat je ook verder gaat zoeken dan alleen het eten.
Heel heel veel succes!!!

Je hebt helemaal gelijk, op een gegeven moment is de tijd gekomen, en die tijd bepaal je zelf! Je bent al zo goed bezig alles op orde te brengen en naar jouw gevoel te leven, dan gaat je dit ook lukken!
Ik wens je heel veel sterkte en blijf je volgen!
Alvast een prettig weekend! - Irma

Ja, je bent nu zoooooo goed bezig dat ik hier ook niet van sta te kijken! Goed hoor, dat je het "dubbel aanpakt". Lijkt me inderdaad de goede weg. Ik zal je toe juichen op je blog bij elke kilo die er af gaat (en bij elk vezeltje meer zelfvertrouwen wat dat oplevert....!!!) Heb een goed weekend Corinne!!!

Sterkte in de strijd

Good on you Corinne!!!! I'll probably do my second round of WW in a few months, when I'm set up in my new appartement, with a proper kitchen.
This time we're going to stay at our goal weight when we're finished, aren't we?!?
I hope you'll drop some hints of your progress here on the blog, maybe it'll keep me (and others) inspired... :)
Good luck to you!
