I need help to stay motivated! I haven't been doing this for very long but I know how I am and I start to get unmotivated after awhile and I need supporters/advice on what you all do to stay positive and motivated! Feel free to add me and make suggestions about what you do :) thanks

    Saw this passage and it helps:


    Fake it till you make it. You can't sit around and wait for the motivation. You have to make the choice to start right now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. Right now. Eat right and exercise whether you're motivated or not and the motivation will follow.

    Start small if you need to. Get in 10 minutes of exercise a day. It's a good bet that once you start you'll end up doing a little more and a little more until you're back in your routine.

    Take things day by day. Tell yourself that today you'll make good choices. You may eat an entire cake tomorrow, but today you'll make a healthy choice instead. Rinse and repeat tomorrow and the next day and the next until your brain catches up with you.
