7/ Weigh in once a week, track that weight on a spreadsheet or something. The downward curve will be a motivator. Psychologically, redirect your thinking from "this pain sucks" to "this minor inconvenience is awesome bc it means I am achieving a goal".

8/ There is a ton written about self-motivation, visualization, etc. Can't hurt to read some of that. Keep your sacrifices small so that you can tolerate them. No one can hold onto a burning pot handle for months or years.
