    Name: Melissa

    Now my motivation is my mom and friends who seem to depend on me to keep pushing. When I feel like giving up and yes after so much I sometimes still feel like giving up, I am reminded I have a lot of people who are rooting me on and a lot of people who are also waiting on me to give up and go back to fat so they can say "I knew it wouldn't last." I have actually been told I won't be able to keep it off by people who have never been for anything I've done. I just look at those people and use them to keep me motivated to prove them wrong.

    People can be such jerks. They're probably just jealous you're actually acheiving something you always wanted too. KIP, you're doing amazing!
