Great Motivation to Reach Goal by Christmas!
It is almost eerie how, almost immediately after I wrote that I could potentially reach goal weight by Christmas, I received an extra shot of motivation to do just that! I got an email from one of my brothers, offering to pay my way back to my hometown to see him, my mom, and my other brothers this Christmas.
We all scattered after we left high school and haven’t all lived in even the same country for years! I am so excited. I just saw my mother a few months ago, and she didn’t say anything, but I could tell she is concerned about how much weight I have gained. I’d love to show up at Christmas all thin and healthy and fit, and surprise her! I haven’t seen my brothers in years. Growing up, I was fat, and my weight has yo-yo’d radically as an adult. I’d really like to be a strong, fit, healthy new me when I see them instead of feeling embarrassed and wondering how ashamed they are of their fat sister.
I have a lot of work to do before then! I have to lose 40 pounds and tone up and chisel out the body I know is under all this fat :) I really, really want to step off that plane feeling confident and beautiful. This time, I swear I won’t let myself down.

LOL - love your blog comment! Sure, come right over and take a kickboxing class with me.
YAY! That sounds like a great motivation. YOU CAN DO IT! Plenty of time.
What’s your plan? Whatever it is, I wish you the best. Reach your goals girl!:)
You can do this
How awesome to have that added boost to your motivation and how sweet for your brother to pay your way. I know how much that can help out especially around the holidays. Or it gives you extra money to buy some cute outfits before you go home. You’ve got this…keep up the hard work!
aw, it sounds like you have a great family. Good luck reaching your goal!
Thanks! I have already been thinking about buying some new clothes before I go…at my goal size, of course!
Just by doing this you’re ALREADY strong and beautiful…now you’re just remodeling a very strong foundation!
