    A doctor once called me pathetic.

    Another told me I wouldn't feel so bad if I stopped eating chips (I don't like chips. I actually had a serious infection.)

    A third treated me like a piece of rotting meat, like I was too disgusting to touch.

    I'm gonna drop 100 pounds and have a ceremony where I get closure by symbolically telling them all where to go and what to do when they get there. And I'm gonna eat chips while I do it.

    Anger and pain and a dream of sweet, sweet revenge are motivating me.

    Let me know when you do because I'm going to be here with my bag of chips, adding a few colorful expletives to the mix!

    My 19 year old daughter is my motivation. She is also obese, and I need to be a role model for her.

    I started losing weight because I have pcos, osteoarthritis in my knees and my body/skin has reduced feeling (am finally only a month away from finding out wtf it is!!!). In the 5.5 months I've been losing weight I've discovered that I have osteoarthritis in my left lumbar spine, gout and borderline high cholesterol. My body really hates me and I'm trying to not end up bedridden because I can't move from all sorts of pain and health issues.
