Motivation?

  • So here I am... Back for the 4th try since I joined in 2012. I lost 40 pounds and then gained 30 back. Went on vacation with my family this weekend and while out to eat in a very busy restaurant we were seated in a dreaded booth. I could barely squeeze myself in! Soooooo embarrassing! My motivation to lose weight is the fact that I want to be able to go out and not have to worry about things like whether or not I'm going to be able to fit in a booth! What motivates you?!
  • Being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes did it for me
  • I don't want to be immobile or have a wall cut out of my house to get me out. I'm not being funny. I seriously read articles and saw documentaries about that kind of stuff. I have nightmares about becoming that big, because I can see myself eating myself to that size.

    That would definitely (I would hope) scare me into action too!

    I watch those too and it's definitely scary! I already find myself missing out on so much because of my weight!
