My answer for the QotW...

 For motivation, I say 173.2 - that was my heaviest weight on a scale. I as in shock and everytime I think about skipping a workout or eating fried foods. When I feel comfortable, I think that my wedding will be July 31st and I can't move the date just because I have not reached my goal. I WILL be 127 in Mexico. I WILL have the skinny pictures on the beach and not be ashamed to show everyone.

I also tell myself everyday that if I slack off today, I am just adding that day onto the end. I have a goal and I will get there. It is a matter of how long. If I skip today, that is one day farther I am from my goal and being able to eat 2000 calories a day forever! I realize now how easy it is to maintain a 1500 calorie diet with meal planning.

I am getting married July 31, 2008 in Mexico. I need to be down 40lbs by then. I refuse to even look at dresses until I am at least 140lbs. I am 164.2 today and trying to get to 127. I hate the fact that the dresses are sized so much smaller than real sizes!

 To help me, I have set mini-goals and can lose 1-2 lbs a week and be able to meet my goal. I also have been working out 6 days a week, pilates everyday, alternate cardio/weights with Friday's off to have a beer.

I started on 1/1 and need help staying motivated.

Question for the Week - I work out 6 days a week. I take Fridays off to have a few beers. I alternate 30 - 40 mins of cardio with 30 mins of weights followed by 20 min. pilates video.  About 5 hours a week total.
