    That's a lot of people. Why do you want to lose weight? Is it for health mainly? How do you imagine your life will be like when you reach goal?

    Protip: Spend more time naked. You'll stick to your diet more if you know you'll have to be naked later. Also you'll begin to notice changes quicker. That's whats really taken my weight loss motivation to full steam ahead. Roomates to really care for it, but they don't know me, the don't know my life.

    Its been tough for me. We moved out of our home town 2 yrs ago where I went out a lot more and socialized more. Now i'm more home bound and I gained 20 pounds. lost my grandmother also 2 yrs ago lost 10 pounds from that then gained it right back. I've told myself to only focus on 5 pounds to lose at a time so I don't overwhelm myself. ONE DAY AT A TIME :-)
