commitment


I have been a Scholar for almost a month and I am having difficulty coming up with a “life or death” type motivation to lose weight. My first motivation has been so that my clothes fit. Now that they are starting to, I am concerned that I need a new motivation to keep going. I had been about 40 pounds lighter about 7 years ago and no longer have those clothes, so there’s a downside to losing more weight–the expense of buying a new wardrobe! In my tutoring session, it was suggested that I create the feeling that “if I don’t lose the weight, I will lose a leg” . There is nothing that I can think of realistically in my life that would create that emotion. What do you suggest?
