Compliments are great aren't they? Sometimes I think they are the best motivation Right after my son was born I lost 30 lbs right away, and coming back and having everyone compliment me, felt awesome (unfortunately i gained every dang pound back! ) but now working hard on getting rid of it My motivation is seeing my hubby's eyebrow raise when I check out all the new clothes that I can fit into now that I never dreamed of wearing before. It's nice being that cute girl on his arm when we go out!!!
