Hi there, I think you have done really awesome.. I think motivation is kind of a personal thing. What motivates me, may not motivate another..ONE hat has helped me to no end is this site and reading peoples comments, replys and blogs. I try to learn something from each one. I have even learned much from others admitted failures., I have learned through the members not to beat myself up so much. That a new spurt of motivation comes with new determination and resolve for success. I learned we are in a battle and that we may lose a round or two but that complete victory is attainable. We just need to stay in the fight. Part of the fight i believe is to stay in touch with this site as part of your excercise program. It's a mind, soul and spirit excercise that helps strengthen your motivation. Okay now, Put up you dukes and battle. Blessings

Try eating a few almonds.They are crunchy and filling.This may help with you wanting something crunchy.Good look.

Plan, plan, plan! I find that is so important to my success. I find myself in trouble when I wait too long to eat. I either eat too fast or am tempted to put food in my mouth that is not going to give me the protein that I need. This is especially true when you have little ones around. It can get very distracting. As Dolly stated.....use this site as a resource it has been very helpful to me!
