You have to keep in mind why you are doing this, that hasn't changed. Nobody has moved your goalposts, the journey hasn't changed you've just come to a bump in the road! It's now for you to decide whether you put up camp now, take the slower road and go around OR get your pick axe out and clim over the bloody bump!
It will not defeat you unless you let it!
I was always failing at diets, motivation that was all gung ho in the begining failed by the 3rd week or 1st stone.
But I was always happy so it never bothered me!
Then something happened that made me realise I was a big fat ugly blob, I'm not going to be that anymore!
I'm not frightened to be thin anymore and this time I will make it.
It's not easy, you learn (like the marines!) to overcome, adapt and conquer!
I lost 3 st then got stuck but I didn't give in 2 weeks ago I joined WW to rekick start the loss! I have my 2nd weigh in tomorrow I'm hoping for another good week.
The thought that keeps me going is this isn't just for me it's for the boys I look after! Their father is ill and if anything happens to him theyve got no-one! I've had them since they were 12 weeks old, They're not going to be left alone!
So as I said never forget WHY you started, was it a function? Was it to get healthier, fitter. When you're dying on the xtrainer keep in mind it IS worth it every step is a step in the right direction, to a healthier, slimmer, fitter YOU!
Good luck
