Need motivation...

I have resolved to get to my goal weight within the next 3 months or so OR DIE TRYING!!! I need a motivation to get there. Something I can treat myself to or give myself when I get there. Something BIG, but not too big...I can't afford a boob job, car or cruise vacation or anything like that right now. I need ideas. Don't say haircut, pedicure, or spa day. I really am a girly girl and can not go without regular pedicures and stuff - especially during the summer. Maybe I can throw myself a party? Or have a huge shopping day with some of you ladies? I don't know. Help me. I need to get this done and I need to want it more. Kathy

Big Beach and Pool Weekend in Charleston with me and the LCBB's and you girls. I know we were talking about something anyway, but let's make it MAGNIFICENT and it will get all of us to work hard to make goal. I actually lost weight in MB, so I have 14.5 pounds to get to my goal. I need a motivator too. Okay girls what's something great we can do in Charleston the weekend of August 18 or August 11. Kathy, there is a motorcycle bar about 15 minutes from my parents' house. It would be awesome to think of a motivator for all of us. Mary

LOL!!! Motorcycle bar?!? Are you TRYING to get me in trouble?? Ever since MB I have been staring at the men who ride past me on motorcycles. LOL! I have even talked to my hubby about getting one. Surprisingly, he didn't say no. Maybe my motivator will be to learn to ride and RENT a motorcycle for a weekend. That would be fun! Kathy

Not really trying to get you into trouble, I just want to JOIN you this time. I've decided the next time I see you guys I need a makeover. I want a HALTER top, would never buy one. Mary

The trip to Charleston sounds good to me!!! We can reach goal together and treat ourselves to another mommy weekend away!!! Or if we cant travel we can throw a big party in Greenville somewhere I think we like to party? jen

NO come to chas. If we have to we can calm down and include kids. Our house sleeps 8, has 3 couches, and room for air mattresses. We can do a slumber party

I will definitely be with y'all on the next weekend get away. Charleston or where ever. There is this really cool bar downtown Charleston it's called "Marketstreet Saloon". It's alot like Coyote Ugly. You get up on the bar and dance and you drink drink drink. Anytime I've ever been there I've always left with the same amount of money I took in with me. People buy you drinks all night long and the bar gives the women FREE drinks for getting on the bar to dance. Sad thing I won't be able to drink for another 6 months or more. I'm really gonna miss that. LOL

We are SOOO Going there!!! bar dancing would be hilarious!!! hahahahah jen

There needs to be at least one CELEBRATION planned when you reach your goal. Let's have a party! Maybe if there's no convincing Dave about the motorcycle, the two of you could rent a convertible and plan a romantic weekend getaway to mark the occasion, too. If we do head to Charleston in August, we can celebrate Mary's goal, and your goal, ... and ME getting to goal too (fingers and toes crossed!) ... hopefully by then, I'll be able to convince the last 15 pounds to GO AWAY!!! I'm hopping on the goal train with ya, Kathy ... let's GO!!! Love, Dawn

I say we do a celebration in Charleston and one in Greenville... We should ask Eddie if he wants to come bring his motorcycle and take us girls for a ride....bet he would! Seriously, I need to get on the bandwagon. Got about 30 more lbs. I want to lose before I will even consider plastics, so I've got to get serious. I have seen on other boards where someone posts what they eat every day. Maybe we could keep tabs on each other and try to encourage each other on the board? Susann
