You still need motivation to eat healthily, sometimes knowing that it's healthy is not enough. If you're not motivated to change your lifestyle it wont work. That was my point. The word motivation in itself is not evil. You need to be motivated (or else how did we get to be in the state of needing to lose weight to begin with?) to want to change. Sometimes we have an off day and don't feel motivated to carry out those life changes that the day before felt wonderful.S Blumberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08790980118656268192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-13801495041662405132009-05-12T06:07:00.000+03:002009-05-12T06:07:00.000+03:00Shani, Motivation is feeling better and losing wei...Shani, Motivation is feeling better and losing weight and enjoying the food. Life changes must be liveable to be successful. That's how it's working for me. I really love cooked vegetables, and I can eat unlimited amounts according to Start Fresh, and I've lost weight.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-2603944172172774382009-05-12T03:45:00.000+03:002009-05-12T03:45:00.000+03:00I think it's true that the key is motivation, howe...I think it's true that the key is motivation, however, not motivation towards a specific number or event. Motivation is sometimes required minute by minute to stay on a eating/exercise plan (not necessarily "diet"). If you're not motivated to be healthy then you might eat the doughnut or skip exercising because you lack the motivation at that moment. So yes, I do think motivation is the key to success.S Blumberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08790980118656268192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-72021175993948611462009-05-11T20:28:00.000+03:002009-05-11T20:28:00.000+03:00Maybe I'm just too much a people person.

One is new.<br />Almost, or maybe, everyone has been to other diet groups and find me different. I look at the person not the number, and I want them to do what's good for their bodies, not focus on the scale. I may be the only once who has never been to any group. I don't like people trying to control myself. I'm innately anti-establishment.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-20140292567330632612009-05-11T20:08:00.000+03:002009-05-11T20:08:00.000+03:00It could be they ask the question in order to spot...It could be they ask the question in order to spot possible anerexia.....or someone with unrealistic or unhealthy goals....rickismomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07817042750959998664noreply@blogger.com
