Losing and gaining... a whole lot of no motivation!

Rydersmomma19

I have made some major changes in my life since starting Myfitnesspal! I was doing so good and felt so motivated. I now have no desire to lose weight, I mean I try but I have lost so much motivation. I have moved two states away and I am only nannying to pay my bills. I live with people who do not really like to eat healthy. I have an eliptical and a total gym in the house that I live in (not to mention 16 steep stairs) and I have yet to find myself on either of the equipment. I can't afford to buy major groceries since I am a college student and a nanny, but I can afford a little bit. I am so tired of my own excuses, and my own laziness. I need some major advice, inspiration, and motivation! Help me

Any one have any good tips on how to keep motivated in losing weight and not grabbing that bag of chips?

Good exercise routines for someone who is 100 lbs overweight?

Wanna be motivational buddies?

It's really hard to stay motivated; expect this to be the hardest thing that you'll ever do and then get on with it. I know that sounds ludicrous, but it's the only thing that kept me going - knowing that it was going to be hard but if I kept on ploughing on, one step at a time, then I would eventually get where I wanted to be, and it did work! It took me years to get to this point, but now I am happy, maintaining, I eat normally and don't binge and I don't starve myself either. I am an active person. These are all things that I was desperate to be and could never imagine it happening - but they did! I now don't have to think about getting up and working out, it's just another enjoyable part of the day!

Keep at it! No one is going to do this but you! I'm a student and living off next to nothing and i know how tough it is, I don't eat all the right foods all the right times, but I do the best that I can and that's enough!
