So I've been here for a week now and I have been really motivated. I am however worried that I will lose motivation once progress starts to slow down. How did you keep yourself motivated? Keep up the good work!!! Stay committed!!!

    Honestly, I look at the message boards a lot. It helps me to motivate when I am anything but. Also, I try to schedule my workouts so I don't skip them. If they are on my calendar, I will do it! Good luck!

    Thats one of the major advantages of this site. You are able to see your progress daily. And you have a whole community of people around you that is doing the same thing and is here to encourage you!!
  • Yeah being able to come to this site is sweet. Back when I lost 225lbs this site was not around.
    Get people on your side who believe in your goals.
    I know you said your aiming at that wedding dress. Find some clothes that are that same size and hang them up in your room - that's your goal size. For me I had a picture of a body type that I wanted to be - and that's what I did - no matter what others will say keep pushing yourself to your goal. You can do it:happy:
  • Thanks for the advice this site is really helpful. I don't have many friends on the site but I'm sure I'll accumulate some the longer I'm here to share the journey with.
