    I find that success is not really about motivation because that comes and goes. It has to do with a decision about changing behaviors and ways of thinking. So, for example, I got rid of gadgets taking up space in my kitchen and added some new ones. The crock pot stays out on the counter. We have a nutribullet, a food scale, . . . .
    Also, in the beginning, I tossed out some food. I only buy food that suits my goals.
    You can do this weight loss thing. :) Think of the journey as one week at a time. Somedays, focus on one day at a time.

    Thank you Ellie! I have a lot to motivate me to lose but I never seem to do any of it. I think it overwhelms because I have tried so many times and I love to be active but you can only do so much when the scale doesn't move down only up.
