    well I would like some new jeans. I currently own 2 pairs. Went shopping for girls day out yesterday and all the stuff I looked at was either xs, s , m, or large. Saw some tank tops for 6 dollars very tempted to buy 2 or 3 but no xl. So why waste my money. It has been a couple of years since I have bought anything new. CLOTHES

    I always see stuff like this, I went once and found something that was so cute, I bought it in a smaller size as motivation lol.

    In all honesty, my motivation is looking back at my wedding photos. I'd never had a problem with my weight, my husband loved me for me, we got married 4th June 2011, and on that day I felt amazing, my dress was perfect and I couldn't of been happier...

    Then the wedding photos came back a few weeks later, I was disgusted by my size, I looked awful, why had I never seen it before!? I was 221lbs, a size 18 (UK) and disguising! 26th June 2011 I joined my local slimming world, I'm now 177lbs, still got a way to go, but I see that photo of me and my husband on my living room wall everyday and it's that that keeps me going!

    *edited: finally got photo to work!!*

    You and your dress are lovely! You're going to make a gorgeous bride!

    My husband was diagnosed to be diabetes about 2 months ago;at the age of 38!
    We had a 360 lifestyle change and was just told by the doctor 2 weeks ago that his sugar is back to normal!

    This is my ultimate motivation to lead a healthy lifestyle..the idea of him unwell scared the **** out of me!

    thats a dress I tried on when we first got engaged. It was a 22, and barely zipped. Now my dress is a 16!

    I think even skinny girls have that back fat in their dresses!
