So, i'm currently trying to lose about 60+ pounds. I've been on diet/exercising before, but i always give up before i can reach my goal. So my question is: how do you guys stay motivated? and how do guys manage your self control? Let me know!

    Q: Am I there yet?
    A: No.
    Therefore, I'm still motivated.

    I don't know how to stay motivated. I just know how to log my food in the food diary and keep trying. I know that I have days when I eat too much, sometimes way too much, and I know that every time I do that I just keep trying. Today the site tells me I've lost 102 lb. I've got 10 more to go. I'm still motivated.

    Take a daily selfie to track your progress.
    Take daily cardio pic to compete with yourself.
    Surround yourself with positive reinforcement.
    Buy a pair of pants one size too small. As they fit, buy a smaller.
    Be realistic about your goals.
    Be your own hero.
    Put calendar encourage reminders in your phone.
    Post its around the house.

    All of these things help me.
