    Mine is this lady that I see at the grocery she has gotten so big she can no longer walk and has to ride on a powered chair. I feel bad for her and do not want that to be me, which I know it will be if I do not make a change....

    As for the person who said to run from Zombies I actually had a dream the other night that I was running with a group to a safe house from zombies and when we got there it was a crawl space into an attic and I did not FIT in the hole. I woke up sweating and thinking wow if that was real I would have died. I need to lose weight.

    One thing (def. not the only thing) is to show up the kids who picked on me in High School. THey called me a bunch of names as I was trying to recover from Bulimia, so I want to see them next summer with a six pack and some killer legs so I can laugh at their faces!

    Oh and I have big girls... They need to shrink a little. Like down TO a DD

    I want to lose weight so my shorts won't ride up between my thighs. That's the weirdest motivation for me. Everything else is pretty normal.

    Oh I HATE that feeling!!

    My ex fiancé has a new girlfriend!
    :D
    She looks *oddly* like me, hmm.... Well, I guess this gave me the motivation to look better.

    Loki played by Tom Hiddleston.

    Dear God, I sound like such a creeper...Well, let me say that I find his cheekbones lovely, and I would have the same face practically in feminine form if I lost these last 50 pounds, lol.

    I know this may sound messed up, but it kept me going during my leg workout today. This was my mantra (and again, it just kinda popped in my head... oops):

    "Must look better than the bride in my bridesmaid dress"

    I'm a bridesmaid (for the first time!) in one of my best friend's wedding this October. I wanna look CUT!!


    Oooooh this is EVIL!!! I like it....mwauhahahaha!

    I'm on the "Be the Match" bone marrow donor registery. Between that and being a regular blood donor, I think of staying healthy so that I can help others be healthy. And, to be honest, occasionally it's seeing people my age and younger who are bigger and not wanting to look like that.

    I'm not sure how motivated I have been lately, but I want to weigh less than my husband. I've not weighed less than him since we met!

    Alien invasion! No seriously. I watched Independence Day and as they were running through a tunnel with fire chasing them, I realised that I wouldn't be able to run away......

    So if aliens invade I'm going to be fit enough to run away! (or fight hahaha)

    Right now I would have to say Delvet. The personal trainer on Biggest Loser. the way he motivates the people on that show just moves me. Everytime I watch him, I just start doing pushups.

    Strangest thing that's keeping me motivated... wanting a motorcycle. I went two years ago and got my M endorsement after taking a class and learning (quickly) to ride after never having set foot in the driver's seat of one. So this is for me... the motorcycle. (and of course the cute leather chaps that will accompany it!

    3. Buying cute little dresses... I have 6 already and I wanna add more to My Closet...
