    Discipline not motivation is what works after 7 years for me.

    Welcome to MFP! Charting every bite and drink, keeping accountable to myself and my MFP friends, sharing my diary, exercising more, finding foods and flavors that satisfy, weighing myself daily, and much more!

    Thanks! Those are all great points!! I found that weighing myself daily also helped me because it’s interesting to see how our weight fluctuates throughout our weight loss journey and causes me to work harder the next day if I lose focus on my goal!

    Feeling comfortable in my clothing! Focusing on nutrition rather than #s. And having other people hold me accountable!

    What keeps me motivated? Well I'm just fascinated with how muscles work and I want be a bit bigger like The Rock or Terry Crews (but not overly huge like them but enough for my height). I guess you can say they are my inspiration

    For me, how I physically feel and weighing myself daily keeps me motivated. I can see and feel the results of eating well and taking care of my body. And also, being able to wear clothes I couldn’t before has been nice! Haha.
