What motivates you and do you reward yourself...
Different things motivate me at different times….
I purchased Bob Harper’s “Are You Ready!” book and I find myself going back to that every now and then. It’s basic info easy to read and to the point.
Quotes motivate me, I like to collect them and refer back to them often.
Positive people and surrounding my self with them motivates me.

Learn and readjust
I check in and read daily what everyone is saying about their weight loss fitness journey. I’ve come to the conclusion There Is No Right Answer. Some people count points, some count calories, some count some calories and not others, some eat high carb diets some high protein diets. What I’ve concluded is that diets are kind of like religion and politics what work for you may not work...
