Motivation Decreasing

I have been on this journey for almost a year and a half. I have been having some major motivation issues lately. Even though I'm finally in a "single-digit-size-8" (haven't been this size since before 4th grade), i find my motivation isn't what it used to be. I do have a healthy BMI now, but I want to continue to lose weight. I used to eat healthy all the time and exercised everyday, because I wanted to. Now i just "don't want to" do it....and I know that's not a good reason at all. Maybe I'm just tired of trying so hard, and not seeing the results I want. My family and friends aren't really supporting me anymore (i am 5'8 and 155lbs, so i have quite a bit to lose!). they constantly tell me I'm "skinny" and that they don't want me to lose anymore cause I'll "disappear," but I just feel like it's mockery because I'm still at a higher weight than I'd like to be. I know i shouldn't take it that way, but I feel like its mockery or them just trying to make me feel better about myself because I've put so much into this. Can anyone help me regain some motivation? Does anyone have tips? (feel free to add me) Thanks for any reply~ :flowerforyou:
