I need some inspiration. I was doing really well. I lost 53 lbs, but I can't seem to stick with it for the last five months. I've already gained back 17 lbs and I'm afraid that I won't ever reach my goal.

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)
I have lost about 40lbs and im in a really good shape

just remember the consequence of such fluctuations in weight gain and loss... ugly strech marks... stick with the loss!
