    Wanting it for ME. I am not debilitated. Nobody is force-feeding me. I am in control. I'm the one responsible for getting off my butt and onto the pavement (or floor if I'm doing Jillian Michaels).

    Knowing that YOU are the one you have to answer to is a great motivator (or de-motivator when contemplating eating half a can of frosting...)

    I always tell myself that I have come to far to turn back now.

    The excitement I get when I'm done a bit, even if it doesn't come every day.
    And my husband who gives me those 'you should be making a better choice' look.

    And summer, BIG TIME.

    I hate giving up, I hate failure. So once I really decided to do this quitting isn't an option.

    Getting to different "mini" milestones helps also. I'm anxious to get to 50 pounds lost (41 so far). But realizing I have lost the equivalent of my 6 year old helped a lot.
