Strange,
If you have trouble motivating yourself, there are a few things you can do. Here are a few suggestions:
#1 Find a friend to motivate each other. You're not going to want to let each other down, and it'll actually be fun.
#2 Try setting realistic goals. Don't say your goal is to be 175 with a 6-pack. Ok that can be your final goal, but try to keep them short term. Make goals such as "Lose 4 pounds by *date*"
#3 I see you are keeping track of what you are eating, that's good. You'll be less inclined to eat crazy that way.
#4 If you're hungry EAT! Starving yourself isn't going to do you any good. You're gonna hate feeling hungry and you're going want to endulge. However, when you are hungry eat just a little bit (an apple, handful of nuts etc.) you're going to feel a lot better.
#5 Looks like you're already doing it.... Track your progress. This I find is one of the biggest motivating factors. When you can see that you are making progress and closing in on your final goal, you're going to want it more and more.
Hope that helps.
