What are your signs of progress that have spurred you on? For me, today ... totally rocking a dress that used to be a bit too snug. And my sweetie's hand on my *kitten* while we're kissing goodbye (easier to reach!) ... :)

What's fueling your passion to keep this going today?

    My wedding ring doesn't fit anymore. It is sad to take it off, but it's progress I can see!

    Feeling a lot more energy.
    Waking up refreshed.
    Easier to pick up and put my son his car seat
    A belly that isn't stretched to its limits
    Scale going down!
    Feeling lighter during sex, you ladies know what I mean!

    My size 10 pants are starting to get looser. I may be in between sizes, but either way I might be a single digit size. Something that hasn't been possible for a long time!

    Being down two pants sizes and having a woman behind me at work today say "what a nice view"!

    I did get rid of a huge bag of clothes too, but with sizes too big for me! I know for sure I won't go back there!!

    I have dropped 2 pant sizes so far and didn't have to get new pants for the lower size since I refused to get rid of them.

    Great jobs guys....and ladies.

    I was forced to replace my dinosaur of a computer. Before it bit the dust, I had backed up tons of files. In reloading to my new one and sorting out and discarding some old jpg's, I stumbled across one taken of me and my Mom at a restaurant. I was ugly FAT! I printed that one out and put it on my refrigerator beside one of me this year. That motivates me. I just wish I had discovered this place sooner, as it might not have taken me nearly three years to get where I am.

    My blood pressure went from 150's/90's to around 110/70's with no medication. The rest is icing on the cake. :)

    Oh gosh...too many to name just one. But, just today, 2 men at the gym said that I was putting them to shame with my squats!
