Dress your salad

Instead of using salad dressing, dress your salad with freshly squeezed lemon juice. It's delicious!

Remember what you felt like before

If you find your motivation slipping, remember how you felt before you starting changing your life and compare it to how you felt when you were following a healthy lifestyle. That will help you get back on track.
