My "WHY"

I started March 29th. I planned a birthday trip to Vegas a while back and every female I'm going with is super skinny. I just thought I don't want to be a fat *kitten* on MY birthday trip. I got on the scale and realized I was 250!!! The heaviest I've ever been. 30 lbs heavier than I was at the end of my pregnancy and that was almost 3 years ago. So I decided to really get motivated and give my all. I am currently 236.6 and still going strong. I will lose 80lbs by the end of the year!!!! #facts

Congrats on getting started! You will definitely reach your goal if you keep pushing! I started a year ago at 250+ pounds and so far dropped over 80 pounds just by staying committed, logging daily and trying to improve myself a tiny bit every day. Just take it one day at a time and remember that this journey is not a sprint, it's a marathon You got this!4

That is great!!! My why .. Is a bunch of different things that added up to me being done hating myself. I read a quote that said "One day you wake up and decide you are done destroying yourself" and boy did that resonate with me for some reason. I write it all over the place now. To ingrain it in my brain. You got this!1

Glad someone started on the same day as me, will keep me notivated lol

My why is: I decided to put me first for once. I take care of so many people on a daily basis with me being a wife, mother, and nurse. I wanted to do something for me. My husband and I are also going on our first cruise. Just us... I can't go to the Bahamas half stepping! Lol1
