Just my thoughts on this...

I've always focused on motivation, never believing in my determination. I guess I need to flip that. I need to see motivation as a timely tool, but one that won't always be available. My...chutzpah...for lack of a better term, my determination is what I should rely upon, but I don't think I every have - not fully.

Wrote a blog to try to work it out in my head. I hope you find at least one quote that works for you!

    Thank you. As you can see, it was inspired by multiple sources! It was a bit cathartic to write, but still felt awkward to put so much of myself out there, especially when the last 4 months for me have been a roller coaster ride of the same 10-15 pounds...but accountability is a big deal to me, so, c'est la vie!

    Being accountable is good. I wrote a blog when I first started this and I really need to start again, it really gives my mental determination a push
