Discouragement

"If you've invested enough effort and energy to get discouraged, you're well on your way to success. Discouragement is a certain weigh station on the road to any worthwhile achievement.
If you know and care enough to be discouraged, you've made considerable progress. Learn what the discouragement has to teach you and then continue moving forward. It may seem as though you'll never make it, but in reality you're already there. Discouragement tempers and hardens you; it does not stop you.
Reflect on your discouragement and you'll discover that it is a result of your commitment. You've already invested your time, your effort, your life. Soon, you'll reap the full reward of that investment. Let discouragement spur you on.
Motivation is born of desire. The stronger the desire for something, the stronger the motivation.
Endeaver to keep the promises we make to ourselves... We deserve to be treated with the same love and respect that we would give to others....."

    I agree, but it is soo hard to keep the weight off. I have lost over 9 lbs. in the last 2-3 months and its hard trying to keep it off. I try to eat the right foods, but it may be something else going on. I really don't know. I still exercise everday and I alternate exercises so I won't get bored. I'm just tired of being overweight. I don't look bad, but I could do better. :smile:
