    Initially I just wanted to look letter- but now it's so much more than that. I want to be fit, healthy, and most of all, strong! I never wanted to be the girl who could lift heavy things before but now I'm starting to, I'm really getting into it!

    @khaoulakash I think everyone feels like that sometimes, I know I definitely do! Just focus on how far you've come and how great it is you're taking the first step- that's often the most difficult part, mentally, so you're already doing so well!

    I want to be healthy for myself and my son. My parents were elderly and overweight/obese when I was in grade school and it affected their health where they couldn't go on field trips with me. I became embarrassed of my parents because of that and I don't want my son to feel the same about me. I want to be able to keep up with him as he becomes more active. I am young and I feel so old, I want to look great and feel great during the best years of my life. I want to wear clothes that express my personality not just because it's the one thing that fit.

    @myrianne93 that's a great reason! You'll both benefit and he'll have an amazing role model, too!

    I need to lose for my health and my energy level. I always feel so much better without the extra weight!

    @snowboardermom Great motivation! It's amazing what carrying extra weight can do to wreck your energy levels! :(

    Fit in my clothes again (of course) but to become stronger, faster, more flexible as well as setting a good example for my kids.
