Why are you doing this and what is the biggest thing that keeps you going ? Mine is that I'm going on holiday in May and want to be in decent shape, still haven't chosen a destination so any suggestions welcome lol.

my biggest motivation is the way I feel I have 1000 more energy my outlook on life is better.
second is the way I look I don't mind being without a shirt in public
third is the attention from all the women0 -
I've had things very tough lately and high school has been very hard for me. Thankfully I am moving to university next year and I am determined to not let my weigt get in the way of my career choice, change my personality or anything to do with me in anyway. I want to present a fresh version of myself when I stat university that I am happy about.0

No matter how hard we try, it always comes back to woman doesn't it.
The 2nd one is my biggest motivation, I want to be able to feel comfortable shirtless0 -

Now that's motivation enough, that'll get you to the finish line I bet0 -
My biggest motivations are 4 and 17months. My son and daughter mean the world to me and I dont want to miss anything. I am doing this for them and to improve my health.
I am also doing this because I am self-concious about my weight and hate the way I look. I also think that people are saying look at her she is fat. And I am.
My kids keep me going and this time I am serious. I had started at the beginning of the year and lost 30+ lbs but then I had surgery and couldn't continue with the exercising that I was doing cause I couldnt put weight on my hand so I gave up. When I stepped on the scale the other day I realized this has to stop and that something has to change. So here I am.
FOR ZACHARIAH AND KHLOE!!!!!0 -
For my health. To look good and not get comments. To be able to wear nice things etc.
I'm very fortunate that in my job i get to drive some very expensive and posh cars. If i were slim and ripped driving around town in one of those badboys i'd feel a million dollars! at the moment when i drive one i just feel like the fat guy that stole a car.0 -
Mine is to become a Mum, my other half and I long for a family but after two heartbreaking miscarriages I have finally accepted that I need to do something about my weight! My BMI is 40 and I also have PCOS, every doctor I have seen says that it is not advisable to get pregnant until my BMI is considerably lower. So, here I go!! :ohwell:0

My biggest motivation is my Christian life. I want to be a better example with the body God gave me... and use this body to bring glory to Him. What keeps me going is that, as well as the results I am seeing (not just on the scale).0
