I'm back again! Why can't I stay on plan for a long period? What is up with me??? I am down to 344 from 362 when I was here last but freak that was oh forever ago!!!! Any ideas on how to stick to it?

This is probably going to sound ridiculous but just make up your mind and do it. That is what has worked for me, and I only have my personal frame of reference for advice I decided I was going to get healthy and decided that the time was NOW. Every time there is a question about "should I eat this?" I have an answer ... "nope, I made up my mind".

I think goals help too whether they be your big end goal or many smaller little goals. Fixate on something, whether it be a new BMI, or a significant number on the scale, or little rewards. Example: buy a pair of pants 1 size smaller then fit you now and work on staying on track until they fit. Wear them and rejoice... then go buy the next smaller pair (and yes, I am currently in the smaller jeans I had bought. They fit now, and now I am waiting to get into the awesome green boutique pants I bought 1 size too small. They are so cute. I can't wait!)
