in Success Stories
...if Ive had a few bad days of eating I have a look through the success stories on the forums and I start to get all motivated again by looking how far some people have come on their journeys and hopefully I can do the same and 1 day I'll be able to write my own success story,
so all I want to say is..THANKS GUYS! :)

    I TOTALLY agree!! But the bonus is when someone gives simple advice and you look at their ticker and it says they ALREADY lost 100 pounds!!

    I try and focus on how I feel when I fall off the wagon. It honestly never makes me feel good for too long. Then I read the book that I have instilled as my lifestyle instead of my diet. The Good Mood Diet and she says that we all will fall into the lure of indulgence sometime the key is to "Forgive yourself for the splurge and get back to eating what you know makes you feel better". The guilt of eating that one piece of cake will make you finish the whole cake. So "Let it GO!". That has been my focus as I too fell off my path to health for 3 months this summer. Good Luck and STAY STRONG! Your doing GREAT!

    I feel the same way. I have lost my motivation recently and then I saw a horrible picture of myself that a friend took and I just couldnt believe that was me! I must make a change and I will be looking at success stories on a daily basis!
