    My female inspiration deleted me, so I won't give her name :sad:

    "Classalete" for the male. Why because he is so friggin' nice and always giving info to me such as, I went too high on the carbs and I DID because I ate as many as he did! Shame on me!

    Disclaimer: I love all the HOTT boyz on my friends, don't take this personal!
  • Even though they aren't on my friends list I will say :::drum roll::::
    Acg67 for male. Because he is always backing everything he tells you with some sort of scientific study. Helps us noobs learn :flowerforyou:
    Sunshine_88 for female. Because she is always encouraging women to not be scared of weights. I just saw her progress thread and it was a lot of motivation for me to get off my elliptical :flowerforyou:

    my runners up! >>Other male favorites (in no particular order) Acg67 (as listed above) fpacudan (nice thread on car discrimination going now) and Sidesteel <<ALL know what they are doing and talking about! There's more but it's tough to choose one and the one I voted for put me in check today so why I voted for him! I've seen that sunshine chick... she's not my MFP, but I did admire her body.

    Female: sunshine_88 and Male: Ninerbuff
  • I havent met any male friends on MFP but for me my most inspirational people are beeny83 and missmolly80. I have never met them personally but they are best friends and are constantly motivating each other. They are inspirational to me because they are similar builds as myself and also their weights are similar. They have made me see that it IS possible to get to my goal weight and I have seen their struggles and triumphs. They are also mothers who seem to have busy schedules like myself and they continue to work hard and achieve their goals!

    Find the fire within yourself -- nothing inspires more than one's own goals. :drinker:

    Edit: I do cherish my friends here for their examples, wit and support. My core inspiration, though, is my family and the man I can become.

    SO many friends have helped me and inspired me at different times...

    in no particular order

    bbygrl5 - one bad *kitten* girl who works as hard as anyone
    kristarablue - she has had so much success, intense workouts that amaze me and is always there for my crazy self
    miasunshine - amazes me with her workout and dedication to everything
    500lbs2marathon - how could you argue with his success and drive and dedication
    CoryIda- With her big win on biggest loser today, she was one of my first friends
    DarkAngel - she got my *kitten* to the gym more times then I could admit
    Two who are gone or changed... Irunforfun and XoxKatiexox both helped me learn to actually go out and run
    BigPell8- is a bad man.. I tried to keep up with him, but he has pulled way a head
    scsedey143 - my walking partner, she is as hard core as they come!
    Julicat- she is always putting up great losses...

    So many more... but that is a good start!

    always the thread to make people feel crappy.

    my friends are on my list for a reason - each one has a different inspiration-type thing for me.

    can't at all be thought of as a thread to make some feel very good for being an inspiration? I mean, it is in chit-chat section...

    I have a lot of friends on here that inspire me, but if I have to pick just one, it's my wife. Seeing her progress and seeing her deal with all the stress from her job everyday and watching her continue to make good food and exercises choices is inspiring to me. I know this is the easy answer for a guy who's wife is also on MFP, but it's true too, My wife and my ultimate goal weight.

    Fit4life.

    She drinks so much wine, and does 2-3hr gym sessions. She also flew to earth on a spaceship that crashed into the Tanners garage.


    They should make a tv series about her life.

    I have to say all my MFP peeps are inspiration. If they aren't encouraging me spiritually, they are living life abundantly. If they're not amazing me, they are helping me to see life in different ways. Each one of my MFP peeps inspires me to be the best me I can be. They give me value and help me find strength I didn't know I had. Each is an individual gift I have been honored to receive and partake in their individual journey. I could not be a more blessed to be an MFP peep and am so unbelievably thankful to have them in my life. Each one has a characteristic or an attribute that causes me to strive to be better. The unadulterated honesty of their journey reminds me to be honest with myself and not only talk the talk but walk the walk. I desire to be the inspiration I find each and everyone of them. Thank you my MFP peeps. I wouldn't be the new me and have gone this far in my journey without you. individually and as a whole. You are part of the makeup of who I've become. Every person we learn from and grow from forms a new part of who we are. I am proud to be call an MFP peep. :flowerforyou:

    aw, you made me cry. I didn't tell you so you would say me. I told you to lift your spirits. But, I have to say, its an honor for you to say that about me. I puffy heart you!

    I did not mean to make anyone feel crappy. I could have said celebrities or something of the sort, but that is not as realistic

    I would have said you regardless! My dream is to compete and I look up to you :] You do such a great job and are so honest! :D

    I have too many to name names. Some of them inspire me because they have lost a lot of weight. Some of them because they manage to find time to improve their lives in spite of obstacles they face. Some of them because they always maintain a positive attitude, and some because they are just incredibly supportive of others. To single out 2 of them would be a disservice to the others. I can't and won't do it.

    Suffice to say that my friends on here are my friends because they all inspire me in one way or another. They are all worthy of kudos.
