staying motivated

Hi Guys,

I have made a few posts on here since starting recovery this year. I discharged from IP treatment 3 weeks ago after spending a month in there and getting my BMI to just over 14. I have done really well holding my weight and am sticking to my MP, but my dietician has given me increases to get my weight moving up. I'm really scared because I feel completely normal again, and am eating very well. Has anyone else felt a reluctance and fear to keep moving forward? My life is amazing now and my head is much better- I'm not depressed, eat to my appetite so don't feel a need to gain

back to square one, and finally motivated again

about two summers ago I was so close to achieving my  personal ideal weight of 160. i managed to get down to 185 (from 270) and only had 15 pounds to go!

Then I moved to a new state for an internship and now, two years later, i don't know what happened. between culinary classes, a second internship and all of life's craziness, despite the fact that I was still pretty active with bike riding almost every day to get to school and work, i managed to put all my weight back on and I'm now sitting back at 270 pounds.

I'm disappointed that I managed to let all my hard work go to waste, but I'm looking forward to getting back to where I was.

and the bright side is that it took me 2 years to gain what I lost in 1, so it could have turned out much worse i suppose.

I've been wallowing about this for a month or so now, but I'm finally back in a mind set that I feel determined to get back to where I was, hopefully reach my goal this time, and stay there

(Something that blows my mind though, is that last time I was at 270, i was in a size 22 going on a size 24, I went down to a size 14, and now that I'm this weight again, I'm still in a size 18. weird.)

How can I keep myself motivated?

After a while I always seem to give up because I don't feel anything has changed. I want to look good for summer but I can't seem to change my attitude. Has anyone got any ideas about what I can do?

Need help getting motivated again

Hey cc!

I always enjoy reading the forums and all of your helpful advice AND now I need help.

I whole year ago I was really committed to counting calories and not going over my cc burn (1700 calories). I exercised often and felt great. However, lately I have been sabotaging my healthy eating efforts. It's almost as if my willpower has disappeared. I have been overeating, snacking at night, and indulging in treats. Or on days that I seem to eat healthy, I have been snacking out night because I see friends and family snacking. Everyday I seem to have an excess of calories and I am slowly putting on weight.Frown I want to nip this in the bud before it gets worse.

Have any of you temporarily fallen off of the wagon? How did you find the inner strength to get back on track? Any advice or tips?

weight loss motivation How To Remain Motivated For Losing WeightMost people are not able to get rid of their extra weight not because they do not know what to do for weight loss or they lack proper guidance but because they do not have enough motivation to get slim. Anyone who wishes to achieve anything cannot achieve it till the time he has the required level of motivation. Even if someone is very talented and he has the opportunity to do a task, he cannot do it if he lacks motivation. The same goes with weight loss. Here, are a few activities which can help you in staying motivated for weight loss.

When you wish to get motivated for weight loss then start thinking how you will feel in the future after losing your weight. Start imagining how people will keep on giving you compliments for your changed look after you lose you weight.

Every obese person hears some kind of comment or get humiliated by one or the other person at some point of time. Try to think about such humiliation when you feel like quitting your weight loss regimen. This will make you feel more passionate about weight loss.

There are numerous movies which show stories of real life people in order to motivate others. Watch movies like Billy Elliot, Man on Wire etc. in order to get motivated for weight loss. You can search for motivational movies online.

Leave the company of all such people who talk negative or who spread sadness. Stay with positive people who talk about solutions rather than cribbing about problems. The people you stay with have a lot of impact on your personality and thinking. If you stay with positive and highly motivated people then you are more likely to not end up as a quitter.

You should feel proud of yourself because you are taking steps for losing your weight and you are one of those people who have the power to take such steps. You are not one of those people who accept that they cannot lose their weight and they have learnt to live with their excess weight. You are different and you will complete every task you have taken up. Remember once a quitter, always a quitter. Be proud of yourself as you are doing things for making your life better.
