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

Yesterday while watching a food commercial with my best friend, she was saying how much she wanted to try it. I then grabbed my roll on my stomach and said "THIS is why I DON'T want to try it!"

lol

lol

not only a reason not to eat certain foods but a visual to go with it!
thanks for the good post and the giggle.

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

Simply because in eating all those foods, I lost myself. I didn't look like me or feel like me. Why love something (food) that doesn't love you back?

1. Corey my 12 yr old son.
2. Janey my 10 yr old daughter who loves bread, pancakes, biscuts, etc, (by the way, since I don't buy them anymore, she doesn't seem to care) she has banana and yogurts for breakfast now.
3. my self, I am totally and utterly disgusted with how big I let myself get. If I really were a pig wow I'd be a prize pig for sure.
4. This summer I went to six flags with family, I barely fit in the seat.
5. I would like to not shop in the plus size section.
6. I don't want to feel embarrassed when my husband meets up with old friends.
7.I never want to hear anyone ask me if I've always been "heavy set"
8. I just want the energy to live life again.

Oh I also wanted to add... I want to be able to snowboard in the winter with my fiance. He is really big on that... and I am so out of shape that I would never be able to handle it! Plus I wanna buy cute snowboarding gear :P

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

Well this is a fabulously motivating thread!!!!

I am telling myself these days that I'm taking back control of my life. (among many of the same things everyone else has said.)

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

Im carbosensitive and carbo intollerant. Eating small amounts leads to bloating stomoch cramps and chronic fat gain.

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

1. I have quit at every single diet or exercise program that I have ever attempted and just this one time I WILL NOT QUIT. THIS IS NOT A PHASE that I am going through, this is my new healthy skinny life.

2. I am tired of being the fat girl in my group of girl friends.

3. I am tired of being the fat girl in the room.

4. I am tired of looking at my fat round face in pictures.

5. I am tired of hiding from cameras because I don't want my fatness captured and saved.

6. The cookie that I so desperately want is not worth the 8 weeks that I have devoted.

7. I just want to feel beautiful.

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

I tell myself that I've eaten those foods my whole life, it's ok to not eat them now.
I remind myself of all the complements I've received since losing the weight.
I look at a picture of myself taken last February and say yuck!!!

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

I'd like to have a jaw line. That'd be nice.

My major one though is that... awhile back I was walking around in a dress, and for the first time ever, my thighs rubbed together PAINFULLY. The result was horrible friction blisters, and having to wear band-aids on my inner thigh and walk with my legs spread. It was painful and humiliating. Decided then & there that I wasn't gonna let that ever happen again.

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

Would like to play with my kids for more then five minutes with out complaining everyone needs a nap because I just can't keep up.

Don't want to hear "So thats what happens to women when they have kids"

Dont want to skim through old pictures and say" wasn't i Beautiful"

Dont want to wear sleeves in the sumer because of fear of exposing the arms

Dont want to hear "wow how you've been? I bearly recognize d you?"

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

I feel terribly fatigued and unsatisfied when I eat carbs...one moment of pleasure on the tongue is just not worth it.

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

I'm so sick of being just 16 years old and hating everything about myself...I know that there must be things that are attractive about me, but no-one other than my friends have ever said it. And they don't mean it.
I don't want to feel bad about eating - I felt like everyone was staring at me and going "oh, there goes the fat kid, lumbering off with her giant amounts of food".
I don't want to spend hours finding clothes that might actually fit me, and look nice - I want to pick a dress, and go "I like that, I'll have it", without ending up crying in front of my mirror.
I don't want my friends to go "you don't need to lose weight, you're fine the way you are". No, I'm not. Stop saying that.
I don't want to practically die after 3 flights of stairs at college. Sure, my friends laugh and joke, but I actually struggle. It's pathetic.
I don't want my siblings to be "the one with the fat sister".
I don't want to feel excluded, and like everyone is laughing at me.
I want to wear a bikini and feel proud, confident and sexy.
I don't want to laugh and go "yeah, but I'm fat, so I figure the car is gonna take more damage than me!" I'm tired of making fat jokes to cover my insecurities, and I'm tired of my friends doing it too, even though they don't mean to hurt me.
I don't want to hide every time a camera comes out.
I don't want to control every move, and spend hours working on outfits that will cover the flab.
I just can't bear to be the fat kid anymore. I want to be happy, confident, sexy. I want my first date, my first boyfriend, my first kiss. Not watching everyone else have it, but missing out.
But it's going to get better now. I know it.

Wow, that's a lot of reasons to stay on this wonderful program!

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

I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.
I don't want to hate what I see in the mirror.
Worse, I don't like what I see in other people's eyes when they look at me ... if they bother to look at me at all.
I have always loved to dance and now I'm too fat to do that easily without discomfort. I want to dance again and feel the joy that it gave me, not pain.

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

That one bite will just make me miserable and angry at myself after!!

I want to go clothes shopping in normal shops and not just places which sell extra large sizing

I want to be able to run or walk fast without breathing heavily
