How Do I Regain My Motivation To Lose Weight After Taking A Break Off Of A Diet?

8

A year ago, I started a diet consisting of protein, fruits, and veggies, and exercise. During this diet I lost a total of 25 pounds and started feeling great about myself. The reason that I went on the diet in the first place was because of rejection from a boy that I had a crush because of my weight. After that day I promised myself that I would take better care of myself and prove him wrong. After losing the weight I took a break and gained back a few pounds. I also met the love of my life who supports me and loves the way I look no matter what. This is all great, but it gives me no motivation to start my diet again because I have no one to prove wrong. Can anyone tell me what are some new ways to get motivated and start losing weight again?

For most of my life, I have been blessed with a fast metabolism. When I hit 28, it seems like my metabolism just died and I gained a lot of weight (I have no medical problems). I am on a healthy portion-controlled diet, I exercise and I have been doing OK. I lost three pants sizes. Today I got a passport photo taken and nearly lost it. I looked extremely overweight in the photo and feel so discouraged. I just want to give up. It seems like my best effort is for nothing. I work so hard and the results seem so slow and dismal. Is losing weight like this for everyone?
