Well, I've lost 90 lbs total. I've worked really hard at it. So I got to my goal weight and I had no additional goals. So I've gained 10 lbs back and I still have no motivation. So I guess I need someone to help me find some motivation. I stick to it for a few days and then give up. I still work out. Mostly I eat right. So where do I go from here???

    Jump back on it - easier to lose 10 than 90. Think of all that hard work. Life is gonna be about Calories in - Calories out - FOREVER! Did we really think that would change? Congrats on your GREAT weight loss - now move it!

    You're kidding - right?
    Do you see what's in your profile picture?
    I sure do.
    Looks to me like you have at least a few reasons to live a healthy live. A few reasons to set a good example. A few reasons to eat healthy good for you foods...
    Looks like you need to just talk a look around sweetie!

    turn the TV on and watch biggest loser. That's always motivating to see other people accomplish and to know you don't want to go back to the heavier person you once were.

    First of all CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:drinker:

    And I agree with the last comment, 10 is easy...dont let this slip now! Maybe you need to let your mind accept you are a healthy new you and all that means, life is waiting!!! I f I could suggest, take up some new hobby you have always wanted to try...it will be a good distraction and probably introduce some new friends who see you as you are now...and do not try to support old habits...worth a shot! GOOD LUCK!:flowerforyou:

    One more thing, I sneaked a peek at your profile and see you do not have any reasons listed for losing weight although your gorgeous kids are your inspiration. Maybe a brainstorm about what you need (as us moms tend to think of everyone EXCEPT us :noway: )

    I would love to see what is important to YOU! Taking care of you FIRST will guarantee you will have enough left over to love the others in your life to pieces. :flowerforyou:

    I was just going to say that! =)
