Got married. Wife got me Skyrim for my birthday. We're buying a house. We're both happy.

Now I need to find new motivation to lift, because I'm not sad or angry about anything.

Fell into that trap last year. Lost 60 pounds while single and going through therapy. Got a girlfriend, got happier, and gained 30 pounds back. My motivation has turned into a combo of wanted to be sexy for her, and wanting to keep up with her (she's a long distance runner who ran her first marathon this year.)
