what motivate you?..

[metalslugx]

hi all, what are the things that can really motivate you to loss some weight?

cause it happens whenever i go to the fitting room to try out some clothes. i look at my self and "oh my..it's time"

[blueberrylady]

I am motivated by the way I feel. When I'm eating carbs, I have no energy and ache all over but when I'm on plan I feel like I can conquer the world! I hate feeling like I'm stuffed into my clothes and cringing every time I walk past a mirror. I know that eating the wrong things will only make me feel like a failure and that makes my days not worth living. But I'm free of that now and have no intention of ever going back to carbage land!

My daughter motivates and my pregnant wife motovate me. I don't want to have my kids grow up without their dad.

A few things- most easily summed up in pictures.

Same mom. Same kid.

[misplaced southerner]

my list is endless....here are a few things.
...my kids. they deserve a mom they can be 100% proud of
...my hubby. he does too!
...the energy i have now as opposed to almost 80 pounds ago
...FEAR. fear of being THAT person again
...FUN! life is a lot more fun when you are fit and healthy
...clothes. let's not kid ourselves. shopping is a lot more fun.
...FRIENDS! and all the things i feel like doing with them now!
(and that is just a few right off the top of my head)

i see that most of you are motivated by your family and kids.that's good. anyway brook you're so hot after you loss weight. way to go!!!now you're a hot mommy!!

i second that....brook people just arent made any more attractive than you are. phew.....and i love that dog you have, 160 pounds LOL. my wife is afraid of dogs.....but if i had my way we'd get a newfoundland!!

what motivates me.....along with family, friends and children and all those things that others have said:

being able to do 100 pushups, in one set!! and i am gonna get there i just need a little time

[Fayeza]

What motivates me? mmmm.. so many things..But the main reason is
my autistic daughter! When I start losing weight, I feel happy. when I feel happy, I take better care of her. When I take better care of her, she feels it and becomes happier too! I am doing this for my daughter this time..I want to stay healthy for her.

[metalslugx]

hmm yep. that's very important. when we feel happier we do things in better care.
