There are 2 things that come to mind and I realize that they well sound

like cliche's. Number 1 - Just Do It. Number 2 - Fake it until you make

it. I have the hardest time in the world motivating myself to be

motivated. Does that make sense? I find that I just have to do

something no matter how small. One of the first things I did this summer

was to get rid of the sugar, cakes, brownies, cookies, mashed potatoes,

crackers, etc. That in and of itself helped me drop 4 lbs. The other

thing that tends to help is doing the protein fast thing. There are a

couple of ways to do this. One is to do only protein shakes for 1 to 3

days then start adding back edible protein. The other way to do this is

to limit your food intake to protein only for 1 to 3 days and then start

adding a little bit of veggies and fruit. My mood gets a little wierd

when I am coming off of the carbs. This is when the fake it til I make

it comes in. I keep thinking myself into a positive attitude by being

positive. It takes some work but I have to act as if.
