Re: What excuse do you have......

My excuses for not cheating on this way of life are:

1. My weight was getting scary. I saw myself becoming bigger and bigger... It had to stop. If I kept eating the way I had been, I would end up like tv's Ruby at her highest weight (Although I just love her show and her attitude - an inspiration to me). So I had to stop the fat in it's tracks.

2. When my friends want to go to a dance club, I don't want to make some lame excuse! For Goodness sake, I'm 25! I should be dancing.

3. I want to be one of those people who go hiking in exciting places around the country. If I were to hike now I would die.

4. I had to buy bigger jeans! Aaaahh.

5. I don't want to waste my "youth". When I was a little girl and dreamed of how my life would be when I was grown, never did I picture this

there's so many more reasons not to have my cake and eat it to...

Re: What excuse do you have......

What a great tread.... So many excuses.

Here are mine:

I want to be able to pick up my son after school and not have his friends tease him because I'm fat.

I want to play with my son; run, walk, throw a ball and show him how much fun life is when you're active.

I want to be healthy and live to see my son's children.

I no longer want to be known just as 'pretty face.'

I want to be more social, instead of using back door entrances and exits just to avoid people. I'm called a 'loner.'

I want to wear clothing that are not plus size.

When I marry my fiancee; I want to be a healthy, active and sexy woman.

My reason for not cheating...

I want to see the beautiful woman my love tells me he sees...

I am so whipped!

Re: What excuse do you have......

My excuses would be:
I want to reverse my type II Diabetes (already halved my medication!)
I don't ever want my blood pressure to go up again
I don't ever want my cholesterol to go up again
I want to have energy to live my life everyday
I want to keep exercising... and eating junk food makes me want to sit on the couch and undo all the excuses above.

Re: What excuse do you have......

My reasons:

6. I see my father struggle to get off the couch, or tie his shoes, or anything that doesn't require sitting on his backside. I don't want to ever be like that, and I'm on the road to it.

5. I'm young, only 24. I've been fat for just about my entire life. I want 24 years of being skinny... AT LEAST!

4. I did Atkins when it first came out, and lost 100 lbs. I've gained it all back in the years since. I hate myself for this, and want to go back.

3. I see pictures from when I was skinnier, and wish I could be like that again. I was a good lookin' guy!

2. I've lost all self-confidence, and am tired of pretending that I have some.

1. I can't get her out of my head.

FatElvistoSkinnyElvis, you sound very down on yourself. Turn that into determination so that you never have to feel that way again. We can't change what is the past, but we can change the future. You are young... and I have every confidence that you can do this!
I look forward to your future posts and hearing about your great progress!!

Your low carb friend!

Re: What excuse do you have......

I want to walk into my wedding knowing that I look the way I always dreamed I would. I want to be able to pick out the dress that I WANT not have to find one that will fit me. I want to enjoy the day without worrying about the way I look. I want to not only feel amazing, but look amazing! I want to be a healthy, fit mom and not pass on my bad habits to my children.
