I have 30 positive thoughts that I say in my head when the road gets rough!

Here are a few and they really help me!

1) You are the only one who has control over your image

2) The next 24 hrs are in your hands, you have the power to say NO!

3) The road to weight loss is not easy, just because theres traffic on the road doesnt mean you get off, you keep going until you reach your destination.

4) The next time you have an urge for a snack, wait 10 minutes and the urge will pass!

5) Do not let the scale determine your weight loss, let the way your clothes fit and feel be the true determining factor...

I say a few in my head over and over and it helps be pull through!

You did not gain it overnight so why would you lose it overnight!

Slow and steady wins the race.....

Good Luck!

This may sound silly but when I get discouraged I go to myvirtualmodel.com and build myself as I am (well as close as it gets anyway) then put the model at different intervals until i see it at my goal weight. It kinda helps me "see" the results before I get to see the results if you know what I mean?

I eat. Just like I have for the past couple of months. I eat everything in sight, which depresses me more. Today, I'm fighting the urge for Pizza Inn. But like Darth Vader, it's calling me to the dark side.
