in Motivation and Support
So after losing a ton of weight to go on a nice Jamaica vacay this past March I came back and have been unmotivated and gained alot of weight back :(

Well news of a possible Jamaica vacay in 2 months again and totally REMOTIVATED me :) Funny the things that throw us back on track!

    Agreed! And also how we lose motivation so quickly, once we've achieved our Goals. I guess that's why they say set your Goals really high, but have smaller Goals along the way. Or make certain to establish new goals before or immediately after you achieve your last goal. :-) To losing more!!

    I totally understand how easy it is to lull yourself into believing that you can be more forgiving about your food once you've reached goal. It's happened to me years ago. It's as though you get instant amnesia about how you felt when you were BIG and how hard it was to get to where you are. I hate that! But I like the suggestion to make a new goal once you've reached your goal weight. Great idea!
