edited January 23 in Motivation and Support
Hi all, I have been feeling really down and need some motivation and I was wondering if anybody would share there success pictures (from start to about 5 months in as that's the time frame I need to lose weight).

I am getting married in November but I just have no energy, motivation and I am very sleepy to diet etc (I work two jobs7 days a week).

Motivational pictures please :)

Welcome!

    There is a tab devoted to success stories. Try clicking on some of the threads in that section...

    lol... I'll stop now

    ETA:
    Just remember that you have to be your own motivation. How I achieved success may not be how you will. Each person has to adjust their plan to fit how they are wired. Find out what brings you joy, and pursue that course. You'll come out happier and closer to your goal that way. :)

    Hate to tell you but the previous pics are of actual people who worked very hard to look like that. And the two lovely ladies who posted have worked amazingly hard to look like they do. I've learnt from them. You could as well if you wanted.

    This time 1000

    When you are dont feel motivated, remind yourself what it is you WANT. and if that doesn't change your motivation, then you really dont WANT it. It really is THAT simple....because you with do or not want whatever it is you have set as your goals.

    See my profile pic before and after. That's roughly starting in June 2012 through November 2012.
    Also can be seen at www.destinationfit4life.com.
    If you need any help or motivation you can join a challenge/accountability group I have on facebook, just let me know if you have any interest.
  • I didn't mean they are not real people.

    Wow I thought I would have actually got a bit of support from everyone right now but obvious not, it's funny people have obvious nearly given up and yet I get critised instead of actually having support.
