Started using myfitnesspal last year and didn't stick to it. Now I have extra pounds to lose and need motivation and someone to hold me accountable!

    Lifestyle change, proper nutrition, exercise and support and motivation from an amazing accountability group. That's the short version. Would you like more info?

    If you aren't holding yourself accountable for your own body then nobody else can. You above all people have to be your own best motivator and strictest coach. Don't put that in the hands of others. Seek help from those who can help you and advice from those who can give it to you but always look inward for motivation - external sparks of motivation are fleeting. Don't rely on them to keep you on track.
