motivation, where are you?

so quietly, i am trying to lose weight on my own. i have done good so far, actually over 10lbs and counting! but i made noodles. mongolian style last night. motivation out the window with a simple bite of yummy noodles with a sweet sauce. i did throw a ton of veggies in, but still, something about stirfry noodles just does me in everytime. maybe it's bc when i usually eat noodles like that, it's at Huhot and that place is like a feeding trough where you feel like you have to consume plate after plate in order to get your money's worth. so lesson learned.. no more noodles for awhile bc i apparently turn into a monster who can't get enough noodles. besides the noodle fiasco, why is it that motivation goes away.. it's frustrating, when you start something, in the beginning you want it so bad, you do everything right, but then time goes on and that feeling fades. idk if it's motivation, or endurance. but, i still am on a quest! i just need to keep trying on old pairs of pants and remembering how good it feels to be able to get into them when a month ago i couldn't zip them. one saying that really stuck with me is "you got yourself this fat, you have to be the one to fix it" haha! i think i can, i think i can, i think i can..
