    I go stare at skinny people in the mall at clothes stores where I would like to be able to shop.

    Everyone in my team at work has joined MFP, so they can all see what I'm eating and they know if I'm cheating! That is a big kick up the backside!

    JennaMarie222 - totally agree, VS is very inspiring lol! Soooo envious of those ladies.

    i look at others' progress! on here and on reddit (they have a subreddit page dedicated to progress pics (www.reddit.com/r/progresspics) and it just motivates me to push harder because if they can do it, it means I can do it and the only thing stopping me is myself. :)

    I’m using a food diary for the first time ever in my life. Wow! What a motivation tool. Your Apps are amazing. Thanks MFP! I also have Lupus so carrying an extra 50lbs on my small 4’ 11” frame is brutal on my joints. My daughter Cassie still uses MFP even though she is in amazing shape just to keep things in check. We talk every am and we get each other motivated for the day. She’s my biggest cheerleader :)

    I look at my running list of people I'm helping. How can I help them if I don't help myself, first? And it's a long, intimidating list lol
