in Motivation and Support
It can be anything! Person, car, exercise equipment, a song, ect.

Mine right now and DO NOT laugh, ha ha is Zach Bogosian (NHL defenseman) and Alex Morgan (US Women's Soccer)
I know, I know it's probably not a good motivation and may be even creepy! BUT it keep me motivated!

So, let's hear it!

    Bigger people that I know personally, they keep me motivated because I know I never want to look or live like that.

    There is a sentance that I can't get to leave my mind. Someone asked me if a 200 pound person can run.
    So when I jog, I am "the 207 pound person running" a little self conscious but somewhat proud that I can.
    I hope to get out of the 200's soon so that sentance will melt away

    My mother.
    It's strange because all she does is try to get me to stop losing weight (she's very large and obviously uncomfortable in her own skin)

    So every time she tells me I look fine, I want to hit the gym harder, because I am NOT fine. I am NOT at a healthy BMI, and I am NOT at my goal weight.

    "Good enough" is a statement for the laziest of men (or women, in my mother's case).

    I don't think it's strange? My best friend keeps me motivated. Her and I have both battled with our weight for a long time. In highschool, thru pregnancy and afterward. She's lost almost 60 pounds and is 5 pounds away from her goal weight. She looks awesome!! It's hard to be comfortable with being over weight when someone you spend so much time with looks so great. :smile:

    When I started I was motivated by girl in my class who judged me because of my weight......it was about my ego at first but now I love to exercise and the pleasure I get from exercise motivated me!

    pooping well :) I feel so much better when I do... and that is a result of eating more fruit and veg and drinking loads of water :)
