I just do not feel well and I really think that it's because I cried yesterday on my way to work about my Aunt who is in the hospital. I don't think that we will have her much longer.

I treid out different things to keep me motivated! Routine is one possibility but in the end the best methode that helped me was motivating me with presents. Everytime I loose 1 pund I make myself a present :) this really helped me!
so when I realised that I lost 20 pounds in 3 month I was very happy and I bought a beautyful and classy wrist watch from Girard Perregaux (http://www.chrono24.com/en/girardperregaux/index.htm) .
This methode motivated me a lot and I feel very satisfied with myself!
