Motivate me!

Honestly the only person who cares should start and end with you. Learn to motivate yourself becayse you are the #1 beneficiary and you are the person who has to put in the effort, other people dont do the diet for you.

Understand what it is you are doing and why, what are the things pushing you to lose weight and what are the advantages of having lost it? Are they importnat enough for you to want to do what it takes to lose weight? You are half way, it will take you roughly 6 months to finish off or get much closer, reak it down so you take it one day/week/month at a time. be encourages by your progress thus far and just focus on keeping up your routines and the next 1lb. Everything else will look after itself. If you dont wnat to stop now, then errm dont. Good luck.

However, having people around who are working on similar goals is always extremely beneficial! Good luck!!

Best foods to eat, foods that give you good value for your calories i.e you like, are nutritious and fill you up. Dont restrict, but moderate.

Things to tell yourself is simply reminding yourself why you are doing it and that if you rinse and repeat you will get there. keep it simple.

Its a journey so dont be put off by one day.

Make a list of your achievements and progress, remind yourself of that.

Great job!

I am short and close to goal weight, so my calorie allotment is small and kind of sad So I try to eat food that has a lot of fiber and protein, so that I get to eat more volume for less calories. I also like the challenge of increasing my daily allotment through exercise. Without any activity, I get only 1250. I ideally want to eat 1400-1500, so that motivates me to MOVE more each day. Last night I was 15 calories over budget. Not a big deal at all, but I like the challenge, so it inspired me to walk for 5 minutes before I went to bed to earn back those calories.
