But last night I had a dream about the zombie apocalypse. Instead of being the overweight girl trying to get fit that I currently am...I was as fit as you could imagine! I'd even go as far to say that I looked pretty bad @**.

I had that toned, muscular look that you would imagine on a warrior woman. And I was kicking @** and taking names through out the entire dream.

Oddly enough, my dream motivated me a little more than most ideas I've had about myself. It showed me a girl who is fierce, who knows what she's able to do, and does what she has to. And she did it all with a rocking body.

That's been my goal, and now I'm motivated even more after finally being able to see what I want to see in the mirror. My mind finally showed me what I was wanting, not just an idea. And it's made my day completely.

Anyone else motivated by weird things??

    Haha, glad I'm not the only one. I was trying to explain it to my boyfriend and he just kind of looked at me like I was crazy. :laugh:

    I'm so with you on this. Sometimes I play a movie in my head where I am the heroine and I have to save the day, save the world! And I'm all kick a** and strong and I'm rockin' a Kate Beckinsale-esque bodysuit-and it motivates me. Keep dreaming that dream!

    My motivation: I'm determined to be able to lift my boyfriend and carry him around like it's no big deal (190lbs, bring it).

    Plus there's that recurring warrior women dream where I'm a kick-*kitten* amazon and I really like that animal print bikini and shiny armor pieces...

    See, and I thought I was the only one that dreamed of World War Z ^_^. I'm kinda into thewarrior woman thing, thought I'm not sure I could be taken seriously as an amazon at 5 foot 1 and a half inches. Still, I have this Riley from Aliens idea in my head that motivates me. 'Cause as awesome as it would be to run around in a post-apocalyptic world in tight leather or spandex, it doesn't seem that comfortable to fight or live in, you know? Give me a wife-beater, a pair of regular pants that actually HAVE pockets (I HATE buying pants from the women's section of the store) and a pair of suspenders (I never said I wasn't weird), and I'm a happy camper ^_^

    Add a leather jacket, some boots and BAM! Good call.

    What I've bolded: I'm only 5'3, but I've got three inches on my mom...which I hold against her daily. :wink:
    I say rock the short amazon warrior thing! Make the tall ones jealous! :tongue:

    I have a leather looking jacket, a bright orange cami, and some tight az jeans. This count as a az kickin' outfit? :tongue:
    I just need to work on my boots thing. All I have of those are cowgirl boots :blushing:
