    I know what you mean. I can't wait for the six pack to come back.

    Love it!

    I have to see my fiance's ex wife regularly and I love looking great when I meet her to exchange the kids. (especially since I know she's "anti exercise". :)

    How far I came. I look at my before pictures and I am still kind of shocked that I am so much smaller.

    I would have to say other people's positive remarks, motivating comments, etc. I would definitely stray off course with diet if that weren't there!

    Sometimes its hard to stay motivated, but I've noticed if I overdose on caffeine and pre-workout drink I get so amped up I kind of HAVE to workout.

    It helps. Also, I look at a picture of what I used to look like compared to what I WANT to be.

    I don't have any pictures from when I was much heavier. I did find this old video though and I was horrified.

    What keeps me motivated on the bad days is all the work that I have already done It is not going to be for nothing! I am not going to let a bad day derail me.

    I try to stay positive when it comes to this. Doesn't always work but it is something I do have control of in my life.

    Yeah, I'm more critical than other people because I see myself in the mirror everyday.

    When I have bad days I try to stay motivate by thinking of where I want to get to and where I was before... plus when I don't feel like working out I put on my bikini and look at myself in the mirror knowing that I will be wearing it in front a people that I know in 3 months... That kinda kick me into high gear.

    Knowing my 20 year high school reunion is next summer... and that I want to look better and be healthier than back then!

    also

    Knowing that I will be on a cruise in December of next year... and that I want to look sexy as hell while I am on that cruise.
