I think my pics say it all, really. I was fat and needed to get into shape.
I was 236 pounds, almost 40% bodyfat and had a 118cm waist - what more incentive did I need?
Why I Love It:
The highs I get from it - plus no matter how crappy I feel, no matter how bad a day I've had, the iron is still always there and it never judges.
How I Stay Motivated:
I like the results, I like what I see in the mirror, and I like feeling strong.
BB Accomplishments:
Latest deadlift of 186 pounds is damned motivating, plus I'm now starting to get my abs through - and I've NEVER seen those before.

This is me after I'd already lost about 2 and a half stone (roughly 40 pounds or so).
And yes, my hair naturally is that colour. :D
Can't be arsed to retake it. :D
I'm really liking my back, definitely becoming an asset at any rate. I hold all my excess weight round my butt and upper legs, but it'll go. Hasn't really got a choice LOL.
It's scary to think that...by the time June hits, my body might actually resemble how I f ...
Short-term goal is basically to keep this up, keep lifting weight and working out, and stay focused on my long-term goal.
Goal (Long):
Also, I've entered a strength contest on extremebodybuilding.net that begins 1st October and runs till April next year, based on bench, squat and deadlift.
I want to start powerlifting, so I'll be starting a 5x5 programme to give me a helping hand with that.
I've given myself till mid-2010 to squat 350 pounds (so, it's two and a half years to squat two and a half times my current bodyweight - near enough. :)
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 5 lb
Bodyfat Goal:

Ran up and down some Scores (a set of steps in my town - one of which is 132ft elevation in 129 steps and I didn't stop while running up the damn thing, piccy below), went for a run down by the beach and did another day of the "one hundred push-ups"...
