2 things that motivate you are:

1. vanity--i want to look more like i used to, plus i want my friends who knew me then (a mere 5 yrs ago) to not be able to think--wow she's gotten so fat since kids. and my 20th h.s. reunion is this october.
2. being able to buy clothes w/o all this effort to find the right "fit"

Great thread!!! Tks for starting it!

1. Sports. I play a lot of sports. And I want to hit be faster, stronger, more powerful, more controlled, more flexible, and perform better.

2. MFP ticker !!! I love the tickers on here. And seeing my own, is so motivating. I updated it and instead of having a long term goal of 134. I now have a short term goal of 165. Once I reach the lower part of my ticker, will move it to 160, 155, 150......................134. One small goal at a time. Affected by book I'm reading called One Small Step Can Change Your Life.

Good luck all. Stay motivated!! :happy: :happy:

1. Looking hot for next christmas candlelight service at church. Yes, a man is involved here.

2. My size 10 wardrobe packed away -- such nice clothes--including a black leather mini-skirt!


I have other motivations, but those are the top 2.

My niece, she's 3. I want to go to her high school graduation and sit in the front row. My mom came to my graduation but wasn't able to walk to the front to actually see me. I am going to be at my niece's probably standing on a chair.
Being alive 100% not living life from the side lines because I am too fat or embarrassed to participate.
