Hi,
I find myself looking for inspiration all the time. I too look for it from the me of three years ago -- pre-marriage, pre-husband and pre-baby. Back then I could shop for myself, cook for only me and exercise whenever I wanted. Now I have more of a timetable. Three years ago I lost 90 lbs in 8 months. I worked so hard. And I will do it again. So I have some great pictures of me back then. I did not reach my goal before it started to creep back on, but I did look pretty good. So I keep one of those pics with me to remind me of how easy it felt then.
I also seek inspiration from lots of other sources. I love to see before and after pictures. The WW magazine stories provide a boost. I love to know that others did the same program and succeeded. It's wonderful to read about. My WW buddy here at work is very encouraging and inspirational. We pick each other up when we have slip-ups and try to keep each other OP. Also, these boards are a great help. I look at them often even if I don't post everyday.
Just keep up the good work and do whatever it takes to get inspiration. And inspire others with your stories. You never know what will help another who is having a bad day.
