i was a fat girl in high school. i was teased and never got the boy i wanted. i was that kid. what motivates me is the feeling of empowerment when i can look in the mirror now and say oh yeah you wish you had this now huh? lol narcissistic much? when clothes fits me loose that once was tight. when i get hit on. when i have energy that i never had before. life just looks different when you feel good and you know you look good!

so my question to you all is

what motivates you?

    I've been large most my adult life. I'm 40 now and I see so many gorgeous women my age taking care of themselves and looking better than the 20 somethings. So I decided I can be that woman too. I also want to go on Survivor. This is something I really want to do. I also want to be and feel healthier. I'm tired of hearing my footsteps when I walk across my wood floors. I want to see my man's mouth drop when he sees me in one of the pretty dresses he buys me. My face looks young and my body is a disaster. I want them to card me when I go get my AARP card in about 10 years. LOL,.,.I'm for real!

    The fact, that I could barely fit in to my last pair of jeans, and had no other pans to wear.... That did it for me. :laugh:

    pictures of myself, celebrities with awesome styles (I want to wear what Miley Cyrus wears...the rocker style), wanting to go up stairs without feeling tired, show my family that I am motivated and can do things and show them I'm not over weight (they always mention my weight when I see them), and shopping and not worrying about what it looks like on me.
