    My opinion - and I fully understand if other members will shoot me down - to lose weight because of someone else, for Dad's wedding etc. - is that reason enough? Do it for yourself, make a long term plan and commit yourself for your own, healthier future. Don't worry about others - they love you the way you are, because they love your inner self, your personality.

    Hey, i understand what you are saying, however having a date to loose weight means i have a goal to work towards wich will somewhat make it easier as i have that target and an end goal. I am doing it for myself because i want to look and feel good. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Sorry of having to tell you:
    But the only person being able to motivate you over a longer period of time is:
    you guessed it already ...
    YOU

    Anyway: A motivation is only needed at the very beginning. After that it's discipline, not giving up on drawbacks, once more: discipline ... and the will to succeed:

    Three sentences that brought me through 115 lbs:
    YOU have to really want it
    You have to REALLY want it
    You have to really WANT it
