So aside from just wanting to be healthy and look my best again I've decided my motivation to get in great shape (we're talking, really lean and pack on some ripped muscle,s shape) is so I can be Gannicus from Spartacus: God's of the Arena for Halloween. Probably not this Halloween though. Doubt I can lean up that much in 3+ months... Any other completely ridiculous motivations out there?

    To be skinnier than my mom. :D

    Which seems sad, but it's actually funny because I'm getting more fit as she's starting to get some pudge. [:

    That's actually one of my minor motivations as well, lol. Not THIS Halloween for sure but maybe 2012! Or maybe King Leonidas from 300 :)

    I have a couple actually. I want to weigh less than my boyfriend... but now he is starting to lose weight to...

    Also, my mom goes to the gym and all that but she's not as strict. We kinda have our own version of the biggest loser going on.

    That is mine too.. I thought I was 15 pounds from weighing the same as her, but when we were taking this weekend she told me she gained 10 pounds on her recent vacation.. Which means I'm only 5 pounds from weighing the same as her..

    Oh there will be pictures for sure. After all the work I'll have to put in, I'll probably end up a little cocky for a few weeks until my wife knocks me down a few pegs. Hah.

    I would love to look sexy in a halloween costume for sure! Not silly at all.

    I would also like to be able to wear a thong bikini someday!

    We do this acrobatic pyramid thing in my family and I'm always the bottom.....I'd like to move up to the middle.....maybe even top some day but even if I'm the "lightest" or "thinnest" I'll be the most muscular for sure, so I'm bottom bound for life probably!

    oh please don't laugh.....

    I want to be thin enough to have my seamstress friend make me an authentic looking 1950's style dress....complete with pill box hat, white silk gloves, mary jane pumps, pearls.....so I can go out in public...and LIKE the stares I get...like...so it will be GOOD attention instead of bad attention...

    think Stepford....

    Thinking about it, if it takes me until next Halloween to get that lean I'll have plenty of time to buff up for Leonidas too. Which I wouldn't at all mind. Leonidas>Every other manly man ever.

    My DH started a new job and had to move ahead of us. When we finally get moved (which, in this economy, could easily take 6 months) I want his co-workers to wonder why on earth he would leave his hot wife behind! SO silly!

    Lol! At least we're honest! Great motivator. My husband's ex wife is skinny and though I don't want to be skinny or resemble her, I don't want to be his fat wife :ohwell:
