    For me it's my WHY....Why do I want to be healthy? WHY do I want to be fit? WHY do I want to eat clean?

    Because, I want to live to see my kids' kids. There are many more. Focus on your WHY, and if you want it, you can have it.

    A Friend of mine put it perfectly "Look in the mirror, lift up your shirt, do you like what you see? What are you willing to do about it?

    It seems to me that you are seeking an unhealthy weight for your height.
    Your current BMI is 19.2

    Your goals will put you at 17.9-18.3 -- underweight.

    What are you seeking to accomplish?

    I agree that establishing a reason for your weight loss (and keeping it off) is very important. Another thing to do is to get rid of all unhealthy food. Donate it to a homeless shelter if you don't want to throw it away. If there are others at home that eat it, still get rid of it. They don't need to be eating it either. Only buy nutrient rich foods to snack on. My go-to snack is Akmak crackers and peanut butter. It has a balance of protien, carbs, and fat. Have one cracker (they are large) and1T of peanut butter. Also, be sure to drink plenty of water. When you feel hungry, drink water first, before you eat.
  • thank y'all for the advice!
