Yes I had the same problems when I started counting calories. It's very hard of course, and if I stop keeping track there is also the danger of eating again like I always did, thus gaining back all the 20 kilos. The thinking poorly/lack of motivation part was over two weeks after starting, thankfully. Restricting your diet is no fun at all, that's why you need to know what your motivation is.
