    Best of luck to you!

    Try to keep a positive attitude about what you're doing. Find foods you like and activities you enjoy, and it will make it much easier to stick with. :)

    That is a fantastic attitude - stick with it!!! I have post-it's on my wall next to my desk where I sit all day with positive little tidbits

    1 - I create myself with the choices I make each day!
    2 - today is the day!!!
    3 - (and my signature line)

    they really do help keep me grounded as to why I am doing this - it is not for anyone else in my life, but myself!!!. IT IS MY TIME!!!

    WE can all do this TOGETHER!!! - All the best!!! :happy:

    I can't look to the future or I get overwhelmed and fall back into old habits. I adopted the same philosophy I used when I quit smoking over a decade ago . . . one day at a time.

    I found the following quote in Bob Greene's book (he is Oprah's trainer) . . . I CREATE MYSELF WITH THE CHOICES I MAKE EACH DAY.

    I have this posted on my closet door in my bedroom, so it is the first thing I see every morning. I also have it on my fridge and my monitor at work. It reminds me to ONLY focus on today . . . every morning when I see my sign I make the promise to myself that I will remain dedicated today . . . and today only. Even I can avoid temptation for only one day! I tell myself that I might eat a cupcake tomorrow, but I will remain dedicated today . . . then I repeat it every morning but only really focus on that day.

    I can't look toward my goal . . . and Im over 60% of the way there with only about 30 pounds left to go . . . but looking that far forward, knowing I still have months of hard work and dedication to go just overwhelms me too much.

    Thu 12/30/10 02:19 PMreminding myself that 1/3 of the nation has fatty liver disease and even more have diabetes. My mom is one of them. The end result of the two combined is liver cancer..the liver poisons the system with high levels of ammonia. The medication to keep this in check usually keeps the person homebound because of the laxitive effect. When the ammonia is to high the person is confused and in some cases may slip into a coma...overeating is not worth it...refined sugar is not worth..sitting on your bum doing nothing is not worth..This keeps me motivated. Fatty liver disease can be reversed if caught early and can be diagnosed with a simple blood screen.

    I think this is very good. I am easily overwhelmed as well. I appreciate you posting this because I can truly relate. Thank you!
