I'm a foodie, so I don't do cheat days. Rather eat 85% fish and veg and 15% junk food to keep sane. But then again I don't have abs like you haha2

the reality is it is weird to see your old self again. AS i shed the pounds.. I can see the me i thought was lost. it is like visiting your younger self. IT is weird and somewhat sad ..sobering as you think.."why did i treat the gift of my body that way?"1

Hopefully a baby! My pcp wants me to lose weight before i get pregnant and DH and i want to start our family as soon as possible so i want to be as healthy as possible both before, during and after a pregnancy1

My confidence/self esteem back, that's a big one for me. Better health. Looking good in cuter clothes. Wear dresses without feeling like i'm wearing a tent.. More energy and stamina. Less pain in my feet, legs and back. To not have people looking at me, whispering and laughing (it's happened), and no more pity or disgusted/disapproving looks when out in public. To not have to avoid mirrors.. To be ok with random photos taken by others...not at my special angle... lol *sigh* I want to be me again.1

Some confidence. Summer is hell for me as I cover up as much as possible. Even when I was a smaller size I never wore shorts or skirts so it would be nice to be able to for the first time.
It would also be great if I could get back into exercise as I just mooch around at home most the time.0 -
Losing weight will hopefully lower my cholesterol and reduce my pain level. I have degenerative disc disease and chronic pain in my neck/back. Losing weight will put less stress on my already stressed body.0
