The best and hardest thing for me to do when I get down is to come here and post about it.

I figured out what was wrong with me this season up until this weekend - I hadn't gotten into my closet to try on the summer stuff! That always gets me in the mood to keep up my good habits. I also spend a little money on myself - buy some "positive" stuff - healthy foods and beverages, exercise equipment, and clothes are real motivators. So are buying motivational books or videos, sometimes. Getting the foods out of the house that I don't want to pass my lips is a must. This a.m. ds wanted donuts and I just bought enough for him. During bad weather, I tend to be lax on everything, so this is the time to really pump myself up by trying on clothes and reading inspirational stuff.
Good luck, Grace. You are in great shape from the pictures you have posted & I know it is from good eating and workouts.
Grace, if I remember correctly you step on the scales every day? I'll tell ya that one of the best things I ever did for myself was to stop checking my weight daily. It's too easy to let day-to-day fluctuations get you down. And some of 'em, frankly, you don't have much control over (water retention, esp. hormonal). I was sure I would gain 10 pounds in 2 weeks since I wasn't keeping up with my weight daily, but I didn't. It has been liberating to be free from the daily accusation(!), and instead hang my hat on an average range.
