in Motivation and Support
I have no motivation to eat healthy right now but I'm really trying to get back on track. I find it interesting all of the different ways people get and stay motivated, so I'm just looking for some more ideas.

Feel free to friend request me too. Need more people to help keep me on track lol.

    Mini goals. I have a ton on my profile that keeps me going. Plus a strong support system helps. I have some amazing pals here!!! One day at a time. Can't look at the bigger picture or it stresses me out!!!


    Good luck.

    Mini goals here too. When I first started my original goal weight was 150. I'm now 147. I didn't want to aim too high or feel like it would be an impossible goal to reach. I also think about how good I feel when I eat better and work out and how much confidence I've gained on my journey so far. I'm so much stronger than I was when I started. Also, I don't deprive myself of anything. If I want a cheeseburger bad enough, I make it fit into my calories by working out. I plan on eating like this for the rest of my life so it has to be a diet that I can sustain. I also have a great support system on MFP and my husband is my number one cheerleader. Always bragging about my accomplishments to everyone. Friend me if you want. I'm on every day!

    I think I stay motivated by this website and all the encouraging people. If it wasn't for the support I get here I wouldn"t have lost what i did. My sister is also a member and she is also very encouraging. I have belonged to weight watchers many times and never lost or stayed with it. Keep chugging along everyone!!!
