Re: Need some inspiration....HELP

for me- the summer is my motivation

I have a pair of white jeans- size 4- that I am trying on tomorrow

I couldn't get into them last year

and they were big on me the summer before my wedding

to me it's clothes- not the number on the scale

I know exactly how you feel. I lost about 30 pounds on WW 2 years ago. I was so gung ho the first time through. Then when I got to goal, all of a sudden I lost all motivation. The weight started creeping back on. I haven't gained it all back but enough that it made me go back to ww.
It took me a long time to get back on track. I've been going since February and kept losing and gaining the same few pounds for awhile. I think the first time through, I was just so motivated because I felt great and the weight was coming off fast. Now I realize, if I want to maintain my weight, I have to change my eating habits forever. It's hard but worth it.
What did it for me was switching to core. It's just a healthier way of eating and it's easier than counting points. The best advice I can give you is just to keep at it. Go to meetings, try to stick to a plan and just remember every good choice will help you get back on track. Good luck.
