I've tried to diet sooooo many times and even when I wasn't hungry, I'd still eat out of boredom or habit or whatever. You have to really want it and get your head in the game. Luckily, I'd already started my campaign when the contest came along and (being only slightly competitive) it gives me that extra edge to stay focused. But if I wasn't already there, it certainly wouldn't be enough on it's own. You'll do it when you're ready to! Hang in there. :) You know, no matter what the motivation is, it’s all in your head.

And you have gained some inspiration by seeing what others are doing, and getting ideas for what you can be doing. It may seem like you aren't achieving your goals right now, but the mere fact that you are trying and thinking and doing some things right that you didn't do before...those are all positive steps. I'd like to think this little contest has been of some help in getting you started on a healthier lifestyle...even just a little. In any case, hang in there. We believe in you. :) Ya know, girl, the fact is…you are thinking about the issues, even if things haven’t changed as much as you’d like.
