I made a list of some of the personal reasons that I want to lose weight on a bright pink sheet of paper and stuck it right on my refrigerator door. Next to that I put up an older photo of myself when I was thin and looking good. I figure if that doesn't make me think twice before I open the refrigerator door, nothing will.

That is a very good idea. I am constantly thinking about the reasons why I want to lose weight. The picture and the notes on your refrigerator door are a great idea.

Hmmm for me it was photos I was tagged in on Facebook. I was mortified that (a.) that's not what I thought I looked like (and b.) that people I hadn't seen in years could see how much I'd let myself go

Don't think I'll be putting that photo on the fridge anytime soon :/

Actually, that's an even better idea. I know that when I see some photos of myself that I literally cringe. It might be more motivational to put the fat photos on the refrigerator rather than the skinny ones.

Very good idea Hope it helps ... x

A list of the reasons you want to lose weight is a great idea. I need to make one myself

I've done that but I haven't put in on the refrigerator. I should. Maybe I will put up a thin photo and a fat photo side by side on the door so I'll see it all through the day. I have plenty of magnets on the fridge door to hold them up.
