    I was dieting after #1 from Feb and now I'm pregnant again. I'm still 25 pounds up and I don't want to gain more weight that isn't necessary. I should only gain 11-20, not the 40 I gained last time. Also, I'd like to avoid gestational diabetes if possible.

    New clothes! All my size 10 & 12 pants are huge, but I'm 13 lbs from my goal, so I can smell victory! Waiting to get there before I buy new stuff!

    my husband is divorcing me...fell in love with his high school sweetheart all over again. Although they can't be together due to his Army assignment (he is on the west coast and she is on the east coast) I just want to make him regret the chioce he made. I hope the next relationship is with someone that knows a womans worth.

    OMG! That is sad, hope your OK!

    I have currently (a few months back) come out of a long term relationship and like everyone around me has said "Not only prove to "THE EX" but also to yourself that your worth so much more, so do not settle for anything less" You go girl! Good luck! :)

    My friends on here motivate me and this is going to sound so bad but the fact I can see the bottom of my rib cage is motivating me as I always thought I was made out of jelly. Oh and the fact it proves that I don't have big bones.

    Myself. Specifically, having achieved multiple weight & fitness goals I never dreamed were possible last May. Now that I've put a big dent in my excess weight, it gives me the confidence & motivation to keep working at it whether the scale cooperates or not (inevitably it does, of course).

    Being able to do something I couldn't do last week helps me push harder in my workouts. Last week I only did 8 reps on bench press? Let's go for 9 or 10 this time.

    I can also relate to the person who said her husband's weight loss pushed her to catch up. My husband had been talking about having gastric surgery & I knew that was something I would never do personally, & the idea of him losing weigh & me still being obese was not pleasant, & that helped motivate me to start.

    Buy clothes in regular stores now is a huge deal to me now too & very motivating. For years the only places I could go were LB, Avenue & Catherine's. Now I can pretty much go anywhere. Hell, that alone is really enough to push me not to gain any back!
