I need some motivation to keep going!! My scale hasn’t moved in a week because I’m starting to slack on counting my calories…how do you keep your motivation up?

I’m getting married July 11, 2026. I’m 47 and going through perimenopause and I have PCOS making it harder to maintain and lose weight.

After five years, two babies and many excuses have made it back to into the gym. Hoping to keep up the momentum with dietbet.

Today is the first day in a long time that I felt motivated and actually excited to walk 10,000 steps.

- It’s Workout Wednesday!
What activity are you doing today? Make it fun and make it work for you! Go for a walk, take a yoga class, do some spring cleaning. Start small - it all adds up!
It’s been pretty hot here lately, so I’m sticking to indoor exercise. Let's get moving!

So let me share a little bit about me.
Disclaimer: I’m not trying to offend anyone. This is about me and me only.
I have not blossomed, not bloomed, but ballooned to 193 pounds. I have been living a life of stress and perimenopause for about 4 years. Between eating like crap, not sleeping and just being generally unhappy, I have absolutely let myself goooooo.
My 35 year high school reunions (I went to two schools during my childhood) are next year. I have decided THEY are the reason I need to make changes. It could be for my health, my family, my comfort, but truth be told, those reunions are my motivator.
I have joined more Dietbets in the last 10 years than I can count, I have given up hundreds of dollars, I have eaten more junk food and spent more time in recliners than any person ever should. But this time I am determined to make it stick. When I took my photos this morning I really realized how much I had let myself go.
I have started simply by cutting out the junk food and drinking probably 10 times more water than I had been (which was nearly zero ounces) each day. I’m going to make these two small changes for the first week and see where it gets me. I will add exercise and more vegetables to my diet as time progresses.
Thank you for your time and I wish luck to each and everyone of you.

I find the dietbets where people chat in the comments and in the game feed more helpful and inspirational! Let's try to get it rolling! I'm excited that I've exercised for 3 days consecutively(started Sunday)! I hadn't done that in awhile. What's something that you've switched up since starting this bet?
