How do people get into the right frame of mind and find motivation. I am so lacking and really should be over flowing with motivation as I'm getting married in June!!!!!! Help please.

    Congratulations on getting married. :flowerforyou:

    There isn´t any mysterious way to get motivated. It´s about being fed up and wanting things to change. Take progress pic. for examble, take one step at the time. If you can´t make yourself go to a gym, do something at home or go for a walk. I have walked every day for a while before I signed up for a gym. And now I love going and can´t wait for the next day. But you have to have a plan! A program of a sort. And some way to measure your progress, not just the scale. Plan your day. Get friends that holds you accountable. I have great friends here and I sure hope they would kick my butt if I gave up...:wink:

    Good luck on your journey, I´m sure you will do well. :smile:

    I was on this site as a lurker, occasional logger for more than a year before I really started using it. In that time I lost 60+ pounds because I wanted it.

    That's the biggest thing, you have to want this more than any other thing for yourself.

    Once you want this then go look at the success stories, look at the transformations, read the forums, get friends, and let all that remind you that you want it. Those things will only help you keep your motivation, they wont make you motivated.
