Journey to a healthier me is full of obstacles

I've been on a weight loss journey for almost 8 months now and came a pretty long way, 240 to 192. I'm 32 pounds away from my weight loss goal of 160. It seems the closer I get the more difficult it becomes, everyone wants to give their opinions about what I should be doing instead of just supporting the decisions I am making. I'm on a 1200 calorie diet right now and I'm cutting out a majority of the carbs. If there's anyone who's on a similar journey or simply just wants some motivation and support in return, let's be support friends.

    I have further to go than you and am more at the beginning of my journey however, I am cutting out most carbs now well. I just feel better.

    Numericmama373, it's not easy but determination helps, it can be done, I changed my entire eating habits and even when I reach my goal weight it's not gonna change. You can do it! Some days I step on the scale and it reads a different number then it did the day before and I get freaked out, but I know I just gotta work harder to see that number drop.
