I was feeling a bit down on myself because I keep jumping around by 3 lbs... I lose, then gain, lose, etc. But it is always the same 3 lbs. So I've been looking for motivation beyond "just move" - what do you find most inspiring and where do you find motivation? Thanks for the help!

    I go online clothes shopping, because 9 times out of 10, I end up getting more distracted by how the clothes look on the model than the actual clothes, and I find myself thinking "I wish my clothes fit so nicely on me.." and then I get inspired to go jogging or hit the gym. It's like drinking a cup of coffee, I just feel energized to move.

    I also look at myself in the mirror to remind myself how far I've come, and if I can make it this far, I can sure as hell keep going until I reach my goal.
