      Always being fattest person at every family function.
      Always getting out of breath walking up the stairs.
      Not leaving the house because I have nothing to wear.

        Family history of heart disease, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I won't be one of them!

        Finally fitting into those brand new size 34 jeans that have been sitting in my dresser for years (even though they are probably out of fashion now)

        Airline seats...don't think I need to say anymore

        Not being ashamed to take off my tshirt when going swimming with friends

        10 year high school reunion coming up in 2 years. I don't wanna be the fat funny friend of the past

          I want people to see me with my beautiful baby boy (9 months) and think "OMG, how did she fit a baby in there?" rather than "Well, that explains it."

          I want to be a yummy mummy.

          I want my other half to see ME again, not just the fat woman who had his baby, and to LIKE what he sees.

          I want to go down south to my old home and see my friends surprise at how good I look!

          I'm plain vain!

          I'm sick of wearing smock tops and tunics.

            I want my dad and my brother to stop making fun of me or telling me what I should be doing.
            I want my Gran to shut up about how she kept thin by eating "just a slice of toast" instead of cereal+milk/eggs+bacon/etc. for breakfast for 20 some years.
            I want my boyfriend to stop having to feel helpless because I always say I am fat and hideous.

                I have a few excuses... but my current favorite is:

                "I want to wear clothes because I like them... not just because they'll fit."
                "Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it is yours."
                --Ayn Rand, "Atlas Shrugged"

                First mini goal... lose 20 pounds... and go brunette! Made the change from blonde to brown - 4/19/09!

                    My excuse is: I don't want to look like my mother (may she rest in peace); she was morbidly obese and completely sedentary ... she pretty much checked out of reality by the time she was 40 ... I don't want that to be MY story!

                            Yes, I have to say that this thread is really inspiring!

                            I want to feel happier and more alive. I don't want to feel blue.
                            I want to have my weight loss behind me.
                            I want the time I spend worrying about my weight to be focused on more productive things.
                            I want those in my life who know I want to lose weight to witness me do it. I want to be known for being a girl who stands behind the choices she makes? I do with all my other choices. why is this one different?
                            I have tons of goal clothes. I want to fit in them.
                            I want to look great for my Jamaican vacation in 2 months.
                            I want to feel more comfy in the bedroom.
                            I want my outside to match my inside.
                            When the weight loss is done...it's done and I can start a healthier life.
                            I want to be the hot 23 year old that I should be!

                              I felt like I put on a fat suit and the zipper vanished!

                              I've gone to a buffet and a birthday part with pizza and cake. I did not have the overwhelming urge to cheat like I normally would. I had my very small salad and water each time.

                                I am tired of feeling chunky, and I am desperate to continue my path in my 40's on a healthy note, and not let it get out of hand in the future! So I can run faster! So, I can look good as a hairdresser and not frumpy. Lots of reason.......... Look sexy for my hubby, the list goes on.
