Hi everyone,
I am new here. I have been on a low calorie diet for 14 months and have lost 70 pounds so far. I still have 40 more to go and for some reason, I am having a HARD time staying motivated! I think it's because it's been a long process losing this weight, we are currently going through a very stressful time in our house (my husband lost his job and is looking for another one) and it's the holidays. Either way I haven't been doing great the past 2 weeks and actually GAINED 2 pounds back! EEEK!! I can NOT GO BACKWARDS! I was diagnosed with a medical condition due to my weight and it is 70% resolved so far and I know I need to lose that last 40 for complete resolution. I just need to be inspired again! I am starting back full throttle tomorrow, but please, please throw any inspiration my way so I can keep going!!! Thank you!!!

    You've come this far, you know you can do it!

    Do you have pictures of your starting point to compare with your today's pictures? Those can be quite inspiring.

    Agreed...You have come this far. Finish the job strong.

    Your continued weight loss might be the positivity that you need under the current circumstances.

    Keep it going!!!
