For many years I have always struggled with my weight as I have the tendency to loose motivation very quickly. This has resulted in constant fluctuations of my weight and i have never fully reached my goal. I have tried many diets and for a short term quick- fix you see a quick weight loss, however evidently this is not sustainable in the long term. Currently i have lost 14 pounds due to a healthy eating programme focusing on 'feeling fuller for longer' consisting of unrefined carbohydrates, lean meats, and plentiful fruit and vegetables while tracking using MyFitnesspal. Also i have taken up running and go 5 days a week early in the morning. However, over the past couple of days i haven't been feeling as motivated as i have been and i'm worried that i will ruin all my hard work. I was wondering if anyone has any tips on how they keep motivated? Thanks!

Well done losing 14 pounds...try joining a fitness class or zumba..or even a fitness dvd..keep your self busy...give yourself a goal target...a new outfit...or pamper day...
I have set up a scrap book with photos from about 4 years ago when I was 11st (I'm now 13st 7lbs). I still have a lot of the clothes and I took some photos of just how far they are from fitting me now. It's a little harder to eat a chocolate bar when seeing right in front on me what I have done to myself over the last 4 years by doing just that. I used to have these photos on my kitchen cupboards. I also think setting yourself mini targets and non food rewards can be a good motivator too.
