First post: be kind. Overweight but fit in middle/high school, better in college, much worse after marriage/kids/life. 30s F needing to lose 30-40 pounds to get back to "normal" BMI (yep, I know, not always accurate, but a frame of reference nonetheless). I got close a couple years ago, then let up and regained it all...plus some.
I know I have to make changes for my mental and physical health and for my family, because my genetics won't be any help in the battle for a fit and able body. I've read the studies/books, tried many different plans, and I have a good grasp of the science and psychology of losing weight. However, I'm at the point where it's down to motivation, and it's MIA. I know how to eat well and exercise, I just don't want to care about it anymore. I don't see an end or a reward at the end of this that isn't "good-now you just suck a bit less."
Where do you all find motivation when you don't want to engage in the process, even though you know it's probably good for you?
