I saw this picture on the web last night and at first i though wow!!! what a great success story…

Talk about motivation…there is no way I want to be moving in the opposite direction. For some reason this picture saddens me if I had a body like that one there is NO way I would let myself go to become like the second pic…or would I?

This is my quandary. Will I ever be OK with myself and my body or will true contentment prove illusive even once I have reached my goal! Will I have the motivation to, not only, loose the weight but to keep it off! The work doesn’t stop once you reach your goal and sometimes I wonder if I will have the stick-ability to keep it off.

It has happened before….please just shoot me before it happens AGAIN!
