Lack of motivation

My goal after losing the first 15 pounds was to lose another 10 or so pounds by the end of the year. Lately I haven't felt that motivated to lose any weight; maybe it's because I don't see my trainer as much or that I'm swamped with work, school and extracurricular activities. Or this could be it:

Even though I lost the fifteen pounds, my boyfriend doesn't love me more. I thought by losing the weight he'd love me more and feel more attracted to me (that's what got me to exercise). I thought he'd want me more, but he doesn't. I feel rejected by all of this, no one wants me. I may have lost the weight, but I haven't gained an ounce of confidence.

Week - I've lost count

I've reached my goal of losing the fifteen pounds. *does dance* However, I'm not done with this weight loss "program". This is a lifestyle change, not something that I would stop once I lost fifteen pounds. Why? Because I don't want to gain it all back; I felt so disgusting in my own skin and I was starting to get stretch marks everywhere. Plus I want to actually have a beach body this year, I'm twenty-one and I have never worn a bikini confidently. I also like the feeling that my clothes are a lot looser!

I'm going to be honest;
  • I don't eat as healthy as I did when I first started. If I want a burger with bacon, I'm going to have it.
  • I don't go to the gym as much as I did when I first started, which causes me to feel tired and moody all the time.
