Hi, and
You might want to try treating yourself like you're on a team - team weight loss. No, seriously! Pencil in the workouts, make them "practices" that you can't possibly miss. Since you are used to training in an atmosphere like that, it might be useful to you.
When I first started exercising, I made up calendar charts to track my workouts...different symbols for different types of goals. I'd put a heart sticker on a day if I did my cardio, a hand print if I did my UB lifting, a star for LB lifting, etc. I had goals for how many stickers of each type I wanted by the end of the month. It really did help me to motivate, and I gave myself small, non-food related rewards at the end of the month if I met my goals.
you've made a great start...now keep moving forward and posting here. Can't wait to hear more from you soon!
