I've lost 10 pouds so far, but have encountered motivation melt down. I'm back to old habits (chips, ice cream....) how do I get back to the mental state that I had when I started?

    Sounds corny, but you can try the script I used a couple of months ago when I was feeling that way. Standing naked in front of the mirror, I said in my sternest disappointed mother/ teacher voice:
    "ALL RIGHT YOU. YOU'RE A FAT COW, AND EATING CRAP IS WHAT GOT YOU THIS WAY. YOUR'E AN ADULT SO JUST GET OVER IT. SNAP!"

    Well your old mentality just means you know how to lose weight but not in a way you can live with. I can't live without ice cream and chips so I have them in moderation. it makes it easier knowing that if its within my calories for the day I can have some, just not the whole thing.
