    My inspiration is my sister. She is a brat and she lost 100 pounds and looks amazing. Nobody with such a poor attitude should look that good! I deserve to look that good too!

    My inspiration is myself. During workouts, if I am feeling like I can't do it, I repeat little phrases to myself.... like "you will be so healthy" "you can find cute clothes again" "you will look in the mirror and be PROUD//happy" "you can do it" "you are strong" ...LOL just silly little things. I have no one pushing me, no one making me do it, or even really making sure I do it (i do get great inspiration through the people on here though!!!) but I get up and make myself do it because I want to be a healthier, happier person.

    great thread! For me, there are a lot. Some are obvious like....

    My husband. My son. My future children. Wanting to get pregnant again, but be healthy this time.

    Then the not-so-obvious...

    My mom... but not just because I love her and she's amazing, but because she has been probably 300-400 pounds as long as I can remember. She has never, ever let her weight get in the way of any of the incredible things she has accomplished in her life, but now that she is almost 51, she is starting to see some affects on her health. I want to take care of myself NOW, so that when I am her age and beyond, I don't have to worry about it and can enjoy my late-life and grandchildren, etc.

    - I've been there before
    - My daughter
    - Friends and family state "You CAN'T do that!!!" (to that I reply...........Who the *%@# are you? You don't make the rules!!!)

    All of these are fuel to my fire.

    Seeing myself in the mirror and knowing and picturing what I really want to look like drives me to my goals.

    Visualization for me is key (Think of what you want and just take it)
    Clear concise goals
    surrounding myself like minded motivated friends and support.
