Default New motivation :)

Today I found out I got the job I wanted in Portland, OR, and now I'm EXTRA motivated to lose weight because I want to be able to make friends more easily when I get there. I was planning to move there anyway, but I don't know if I would have chickened out in the end. Now I know I'm going!

Oh wow, congrats!!!! You're so brave, I'd be a terrified little girl about packing up and starting over in a new city all alone.... You can do it!

Sweet! If that's not an awesome motivation for everything (not just weight loss) I don't know what is. Your hard work has paid off!

What kind of job is it?
