Many people ask me how I stay motivated. All it takes for me is thinking back to a few years ago, remembering what it felt like to lug around an extra 120 pounds. That is a lot of motivation. I think some people are naturally more motivated than others. It does not come naturally to me. I have to make myself get off the couch and get outside. I have to get up and walk away from the dinner table to stop eating. It is a conscious decision every day to make good choices. Yes I do fail. Quite often really. I just get up after I fall down and keep going. At this point in my life I see no other choice. I have to do this for myself and for my family. As long as I take more steps forward than backwards, I will be successful.
