NEMom-I LOVE LOVE LOVE that post! It's so true and very eloquently stated!
One thing I try to do when I'm having a rough day and some motivation is to close my eyes and try to *really visualize* all of the benefits of losing weight...how i will look and feel, all the new cute clothes, the health benefits, etc. It's kind of like meditating...it calms me down and refocuses my negativity into something positive.
