    To stay motivated, I have a gym partner who has already lost a significant amount of weight. I look at her and think, "If she can do it than surely I can!"

    Wohoo . Just joined this challenge and I am pumped. I am having an amazing day. I did P90x Chest/Shoulders/Triceps, AbRipperX, My Challenge, and Plyometrics. I am exhausted,though I have gotten in my 12 cups of water!

    Good luck this week. We can do this.

    I did really well today until leftovers from my favorite Schezwan restaurant. I only ate a couple bites of it but I'm sure even that put me over my calories.

    Good Morning, everyone! Great challenge for today. I actually did take my before pictures in January when I first started thinking about trying to get healthier and happier for 2011. You can find it in my photos on my profile or at my blog in the About Me section at: www.fatmamatophatmama.blogspot.com .

    Have you been in a rut before and got remotivated to lose weight? WHAT DO YOU DO TO STAY MOTIVATED?

    Yes, I have been in a rut for a few months up until about two weeks ago. I don't get much support at home and it gets very frustrating at times. However, after much soul-searching, I realized that I don't need their support because I am doing this for me. (And them, but I have had to accept the fact that they just don't understand that) Around here, food has = love and I have been trying to re-teach the children and The Man that they can love me and show their love in other ways. It's been getting better.
    As for how I STAY motivated now. The amazing people I've met here have helped immensely. When you surround yourself with people who have similar goals, it makes it easier to keep from feeling all alone in what you are trying to achieve. I also try not to set too lofty of goals and just take each day and do the best I can THAT day without worrying about tomorrow.

    SoShotOut: Very well said!! Staying motivated has to come from within. Not everyone is going to motivate or support you. For one selfish reason or another, anything someone can do to sabotage your efforts they will try. You have to have a mental visual in your mind to get you through the slumps! there will be plataeu's, and you will hit obstacles, but I see it like rock climbing, when you have started climbing you just have to keep going until you reach the top!!! If you let go and fall .... you have to start that obstacle ALL over again!!

    just climb over the obstacles, run thru the red tape, and Keep one foot in front of the other, at all times!! A great friend once told me , many years ago "You can not spend your life walking backwards, you miss all the beautiful things happening in front of you"

    When you hit a slump, face forward, and dont look back, keep GOING!!!

    JeffsGirl4Life: Thanks! I was peeking at your page and you are very inspirational!

    Isn't it true, though, that people who love you the most do the most to intentionally or unintentionally sabotage your efforts to become healthier in the guise of 'making you happy'? That's ok, though. I know that I can do this and I will keep plugging along one day at a time.
