    Put on a bikini. That's my motivation. Because if I get my act in gear and follow healthy eating and exercising patterns, I will look slammin' by the time it's warm enough to use it! ;)
  • hello, Alison. I know what you mean. good luck with your goals.

    Alison, so glad you joined. I never thought this would work. I was almost the same weight n height when I started. I lost 60 lbs since last February. I feel so great now! I can wear anything, including a bikini, and I feel completly happy with my body for the first time ever! The biggest thing is to just record... Even if you are eating junk even if your over, so you get i'n the habit and you know how good or bad your being before you calculate. Good luck it's worth the work trust me!
  • I am also new on here and am hoping to find support and motivation. I keep "before" pictures of me posted at strategic places around the house. I also have a specific outfit that I am striving to fit into again so it is hanging on my closet door where I can see it every time I get dressed. Good luck :) Feel free to friend me and hopefully we can motivate each other.
