You stick with it only until something better comes along (such as doughnuts) ... How you feel determines your outcome. If you don''t ''feel like it'', you stop your efforts. ... You need to see results. When the scale doesn''t move, you lose your motivation. ... You blame everything else (people, travel, circumstances) for your struggles with staying on program. ... Whenever you face challenges in life, you give up and plan you''ll start your program again tomorrow. ~~HOWEVER: If you''re "committed" to losing weight... ... Nothing stops your efforts. You stick with your program, "no matter what." ... Emotions don''t control your actions. You stay on track even when you don''t feel like it. ... Your motivation isn''t linked to the scale. You assume that if you stay motivated and work hard, you''ll eventually see results. ... You don''t depend on other people for your success. You know it''s up to you, not them. ... A bad day or a lot of challenges don''t affect your efforts. You keep going in spite of it. ~~So which one are you???? "COMMITTED OR INTERESTED"????

My first goal is to be HEALTHY. If I am healthy, the rest of my goals will follow feel better about my self image have more energy eliminate the use of insulin (I have done it before) Buy my clothes in a smaller size what else? I think that I can think of a lot more down the line...I will add them as I think of them.

I know how to do it! I just need to do it...the help of my fellow spark members are a big part of the whole picture. In the past , I found that support was such a big part of that picture. Motivation is a very big step! And I feel this is the place to get it. Portion control Exercise drinking my water loving myself posting on the boards for support These are all of the things that I will strive to do to reach my goals
