BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Inspiration Weight Loss Inspiration

I wanted to share a little piece of inspiration that came to me today. I am a plus size woman and I am trying to lose weight to get down to a normal size. My favorite show is The Biggest Loser these days; it is so cool to watch weight loss success at work. But I can't imagine I'll get to the size that the winners do. They come out looking like super human triathletes. I just want to be normal.

Well today I found my normal inspiration. I watched the Now video of Shellay (she got kicked off last week i think) on the NBC website. Oh my!!!!! She looks great. Not skinny bones triathlete. She is sexy normal woman! yay

My inspiration was last season's winner - Ali. She looks like a triathelete now -- but firming up is my goal so that's ok.

I like the Biggest Loser show as well even though I don't get TV a lot.
It's very inspirational to watch people go through such transformation... it just goes to show that it's possible.

Thanks for joining us JoanofArt! Are you an artist

And thanks for posting that link! I know the show has provided inspiration for thousands!

I got inspired by an article about dark chocolate. Now I eat 1 oz. a day and brought up my protein grams to between 70 and 100 while staying under 1200 calories while including two dairy servings. I dropped 7 pounds really fast.

Mostly I enjoy looking at other people's art but i do paint a little myself, just for a creative outlet.

And just now I got inspired to paint some dark chocolate.
