    Therapy. It helped me realize food doesn't fix problems and I was able to develop appropriate life-coping skills.

    Logging onto another weight-loss site daily has kept me accountable. Logging my food most of the time has also been helpful. Accountability is key, for me.

    I have been on a commercial weight-loss plan recently and dropped a lot of weight. I don't think the plan I'm on matters as much as the 2 points above. I did everything I needed to do, mentally, to get ready to lose weight which made it a 1000x easier than prior attempts.

    1) The mirror - I LOVED the moment I could finally see an actual bum, not just a flat pancake!!
    2) Complements/being hit on - though my husband complements me often, its been since high school that someone actually hit on me.
    3) Motivating others/Others motivating me - After family members started seeing my results, 3 of my relatives (including my husband) joined the weight loss/get fit band wagon.
