Anyway after that I told him when I get to 140 I am going to do that to you so you better bulk up to make it easier (muscles that is).
Since then I can't get the picture of me being able to actually be held up by my hubby out of my mind and I think its gonna be a great motivator. I know some people like to picture themselves skinnier or whatever, and I am very motivated by my health being the main concern (that is why I started). But to me most of the time I fell pretty sexy at the size I am (in the right clothes) I am fortunate to be tall and big boned so most people don't realize how much I truly weigh.
So this picture in my mind is my new motivator for a while, what do you visualize? This just came to me in a rush as being the picture to hold onto mentally when frustrated, truly truly something motivating, not strived for, has anyone else found this? Lets hear it!  |
Good for you. I can relate. When I started I was 204 lbs and my hubby was 120 lbs. Yes, you heard me. 120 lbs!!! Now, I'm 121 and he's 125 lbs. Just wait until you have a smaller waist than him. That's great too. I remember how great that was. Or even better when you try on his size clothes and they are baggy on you.
Nice. You'll get there. Just keep it up and don't stop.
