Where do you get your support/motivation from?
Losing weight is a struggle when you do it alone, but when you have someone in your corner pushing you forward it can keep you motivated. Thanks to MSW I have not given up! I know that I can turn to OH to help answer questions when I don't know something. I get motivated some days to exercise watching Biggest loser, and now I am even more motivated because I have a trip to Florida planned for the summer.

Some days motivation is harder to come by than others. Success is my best motivator. The better I do, the better I want to do. When I slip its because I'm working my program and not seeing results.
Second in line is fear of failure. I don't want to ever go back where I started. When I slip, visions of being shaped like winnie the pooh once again usually get me to pull myself together.

The only thing that motivates me is my tight ass jeans and my arms. I love the way my arms look and it is what makes me P90X every single day.
On days when I don't want to get up and workout I will usually look at my calendar on the wall and think about how many days I have before something and how long I have been fat, and I hate that the time is getting longer and longer of my being fat and I want to stop that.
I don't even know if that makes any dam sense. I don't know what motivates me. I just do it damit.

Cheesy answer time: My main motivation is my daughter. She is only a toddler now, but I want to be a good influence on her as far as being healthy, and I want to be able to do activities with her and keep up with her.

When I do what is needed for my continued weight loss and health I beat back the risk of diabetes and heart disease. I love to travel and plan to see the world and I won't be able to do so like I want while in a wheel chair and/or on a cane. I don't want any barriers to the way I want to live. Oh yeah, not having to shop in plus sizes anymore.
