What are some ways you keep yourself motivated while you´re trying to become healthier/lose weight?

It´s been hard for me, lately. It´s the end of the fall semester, I´m already incredibly run down and stressed out and my uncle killed himself a couple of days ago, so I´ve just been really unmotivated to even just breath.

But, anyway!

On a normal basis, I find that it helps me to stay motivated if I stand in front of the mirror for a bit and pick at myself. I know, some people will tell me that I have BDD or something, but it´s not like I´m looking in the mirror and thinking "holy s**t I´m a beached whale!" it just helps me pin-point the things I still need to work on and the things I don´t like so I can better pick out the exercises I want to do for that day.

As for dieting, I guess there´s no better advice I can give anyone but to just stick with it! Once you start eating healthier foods, that´s what you´ll begin to crave. It really does just get easier with time. :]

So, tell me, WN... what helps to motivated you?
Do you view yourself as healthy, underweight, or overweight?
Do you have a routine set down?
What are some physical activities that you enjoy?

Hi! I want to lose some pounds too. When I try to eat healthy & then I start to give up/ think it's not worth it, I eat junk food like there's no tomorrow: however much I want, you know before I start eating less again.
To me one of the best motivations is to start seeing results, but it takes discipline which is hard! Well, best wishes for you!
