DAILY Motivation

Many years ago I started a successful weight loss journey and lost sight of it many years later. Everyday I was tempted and everyday I asked myself "How bad do you want this?" Meaning, how much did I want to see a whole new me. So in the spirit of having a daily reminder I want to post a quote or a photo that inspires me and I'd love anyone who is willing to also participate! Here is my add for today! 40atxn51ugxu.jpg

    I love this too!

    Is anyone familiar with the Geneen Roth books on weight and all the emotional issues intertwined with them? I read them many years ago and one line has stuck with me all this time:

    "Will you be the hero of your own life?"

    I might as well, because no one else is going to do it.

    I'm so excited to share our stories, quotes, photos together! This MFP really helped me this weekend and is still helping today. This has had a great positive effect on my life already! I hope we have more participants coming out of the woodwork, and I'm excited for tomorrow's photo!

    This sounds desperate, but I would love some weightloss/fitness friends to connect with and for motivation. I'm looking to lose about 50 lbs (already lost 40! :D ) Feel free to add me!

    Thanks for the encouragement! Unfortunately I've been more of a planner than a doer. :( Loved seeing your posts!

    That really strikes me. I used to eat because I was unhappy.
