I left the forum for a bit when my brother died a couple of months back.. gained 10 lbs instead of losing weight. (stress/depression sucks) 
But I'm ready to give it another go under a new name.
(old name was fattydoll)
How I'm staying motivated this time:
*blogging at my blogger account (I dunno why, but I'm not into using this forum as my journal)
*exercise--I only recently got back on track with this, and just about instantly my demeanor changed for the better. I plan on running a 5k with my mom at the tail end of May. Gotta get ready!!
*counting calories--I do it, coz I do it. It helps me monitor what goes in my mouth better.
*mini goals--instead of reaching big all in one fell swoop, I've decided to break my ultimate goal up into 8 mini goals. -50lb (22.5kg) in 8 months. Highly doable, I do believe.
Here are my list of mini-goals:
1. 4/13 to 5/13 -8lb to bring me back to 170
2. 5/13 to 6/13 -7lb to bring me back to 163
3. 6/13 to 7/13 -7lb to bring back to 156
4. 7/13 to 8/13 -7lb to bring me back to 149
5. 8/13 to 9/13 -6lb to bring me back to 143
6. 9/13 to 10/13 -5lb to bring me to my lowest ever of 138
7. 10/13 to 11/13 -5lb to bring me to my *new* lowest ever of 133
8. 11/13 to 12/13 -5lb to bring me to my ultimate goal weight of 128
So far, I've lost 2lbs in 1 week. I'm right on track, and do so intend to stay that way.
