Hi prettymamma!
I think many of us have been in the can't-get-motivated rut you are in right now. What has worked for others to get out of it may or many not work for you, but I will tell you what's been working lately for me, nonetheless.
I love journaling so I thought that getting on the blogging bandwagon (what took me so long I'll never know) with my sister. We started on July 25th of this year and since I started posting there daily for all to see, it really keeps me accountable, and I have not gone off my diet plan once because of it. It is very motivating for me.
Another motivator is joining a challenge on this board. You become friends with others who have similar goals and you help one another through the tough times and encourage one another through the rough times.
Do you have a friend or relative that needs to lose weight, too, that might be willing to exercise and/or diet with you? That really helps, too.
And just checking in here daily can help wonders! Everyone here is so supportive and friendly. They will cheer you on all the way to your goal.
Best wishes to you and congrats on your upcoming wedding and move. I know it seems scary, but it is also an exciting time for you, too. Try your best to only look at the bright side of it. Remember...what thoughts you constantly put in your mind, whether good or bad, is what your will truely believe about yourself. So make them positive, even if right now you don't believe them. Say them so often to yourself, that one day it will happen, and you'll have the life and body that you've always dreamed of.
