Day 1 - My Motivation

Options
So, obviously I need to lose weight. Otherwise, I wouldn't be on MFP.

I wanted to start Day 1 w/ posting my motivation...a new tattoo!

I've been waiting to get another tattoo for a while, and I've also been waiting to lose weight for a while...

So, I thought what better way to motivate myself!

Once I reach my goal, it's time to get "tatted up".

What's your motivation?

    That's a great motivator Ashley! I have personally let myself slip in to worse shape with each passing year for about 5 years now. I had a traumatic knee injury(ACL tear) that kept me from being active and participating in the activities I love. Due to the cost of healthcare I was unable to have the surgery I needed : ( Now I have a job that provides me with affordable healthcare and I was able to have my surgery a little over 3 months ago!!! I was recently cleared to start jogging/light running and other agility exercises. I am motivated to not only lose weight I've gained over the years but become the best/healthiest/happiest person I can be! My goal is to be cleared for full activity by this spring so I can go snowboarding!
