    < ~~~ ♥My Inspiration♥ ~ one of my bff's, (like) a younger sister at her first competition ~ she took 5th place, but I think she deserved 1st, in my honest opinion. She inspired me to get into this working out, eating better lifestyle change. Had it not been for going to her show, I would not be here on MFP today, nor would I be doing my 1st show in November. So many thanks to Melissa (Miss Peabody) for rocking it out and making me want to see how far I could push myself, too.

    i dont know,:indifferent: i had motivation,
    :frown: i had a bridesmaid dress that i worked really hard to look good in. it worked.
    the wedding is over and the dress isn't my motivation anymore.::frown:

    <~~~~~~ One of my inspirations, my 14 year old son. I want to live a long happy life with him. He has inspired me so much that I became a runner. He loves running so much. His first year in high school he is on the cross country team and he is there #1 runner and the team is all grades up to seniors. He is 6'3” already so his long legs give him an advantage.

    <--- My inspirations. Sir Ranulph Fiennes and Ryan Giggs.

    At 60 years of age and only 4 months after a heart bypass operation. Ranulph Fiennes ran 7 marathons in 7 days in 7 different countries. At 65 years of age he climbed Mount Everest.

    Ryan Giggs is just 3 months younger than me. He is in his 21st year as a professional football player and there is still no sign of him slowing down.

    I want to be even half as fit as either of them.

    Well, YOU are a major inspiration to me. Along with Lori, and a bunch of my MFP friends. When I'm feeling down I come here and just reading about all the exercise that my friends are doing inspires me to get out there and get my walk in, even when I'd rather not. I feel mentally like I'm becoming an athlete, even though my body doesn't really look the part ... yet!! I'm also continuously inspired by my sister, my husband, my niece in Fla., my friend Cheryl, and my friends at church that know I'm trying to get healthy. My WW friends kind of inspire me, but nothing like my friends here at MFP. I'm so very thankful for this site and the encouragement I receive (and hopefully give) here. :heart:

    <---- My favorite photo.... I was small enough for my ex to carry me around on his shoulders. Would love to be that size again. He's also the one that told me I can't fail if I don't give up (my profile quote).

    My hubs...(it's a horrible pic!) He's the one that kicks me in the a$s when I need it and encourages me to never give up.

    <---- my inspiration. i adore Christian Kane and i waited in the sleet last December in Raleigh to get a chance to meet him and get a pic with him. -- side note, was one of the most awesome weekends ever -- and i have let almost no one see the pic b/c i actually SAW for the first time in a long time, how out of control i had become. So i have the pic and i WAITED for it... and i don't share it. i want to hit goal and get another one that i would be willing to put up on a friggin BILLBOARD. so that's my inspiration.

    husband . . . He's encouraged me to become a person that I can be proud of. When things get tough, he always knows what to say to get our *kitten* into gear and accomplish any feat. He is also the only person who can handle my type of crazy =)
