I'm feeling very unmotivated today. I am very tired of couting calories. What do you do when you just lose the motivation. I love working out. That is never a problem, but this counting thing has my brain fried! I'm constantly thinking about food, what I can eat, what I can't, and what I want to eat regardless of weather I should or not.
Last night we grilled burgers. I chose to have my burger on a portabello mushroom rather than a bun, and I skipped the chese and chips. It was delicious so it wasn't a hard choice for me, but when everyone else had an ice cream, I had one too.
It feels like it's a constant battle to make the right choice. I thought it might be easier by now, but it seems like it's gotten harder.
Sorry for the whine, but I'm just feeling very frustrated this morning. I know it will pass. Thanks for listening ladies. :)

making the right choices is not always easy,
not in the way we eat or in the way we live,
but it is right and it is good

I get to that spot fairly regularly. I know what you mean.

Something that has been helping me lately is thinking, "This food (or this exercise or whatever) is going to either get me closer to my goal or farther away. What choice am I going to make?" Reviewing my goals frequently keeps me motivated usually.

Hope that helps.

So, this is blasphemy, I know. But, have you tried stopping the counting? Keep on eating the right foods, but stop the counting. This works for some people -- but not everybody.

We have a tendency to get obsessive and that is so dang tiring.
