Keep a food/ exercise diary. Record what you are eatting well as your phsyical activity for the day. Keeping record of this will help you realize what you are doing. Reward yourself for a job well done. For example, I stick to my healthy diet during the week. Then on weekends I treat myself to my favourite foods (but staying in moderation). You can also make up a reward list for the weight you loose. For example, after loosing 5 lbs treat yourself to a manicure, after 10 lbs, a shopping spree, or whatever rewards you choose. Setting up rewards for yourself helps you stay motivated. Its also helpful to post a picture of yourself when you were smaller on the fridge, to remind you why you are working so hard towards your goals!

Good luck!
