Why do you want to lose weight??

O ... and to fit into my favorite pair of jeans ... which I grew out of from the freshman 15.

1. To feel better - more energy/confidence
2. To not be embarrassed in a bikini this summer....for once :blushing:
3. To avoid diabetes/high blood pressure (my Mom is dealing with it...already)
4. To be able to finish a marathon...or half marathon

Hi, everyone. I'm brand spankin' new here, but I figured this would be a good topic to start off with!

1. Diabetes runs in my family. I would like to escape it.
2. At 22, I'm sick of waking up in the morning and feeling like I'm 62.
3. I want to be able to have a family, and my doctor flat out told me that if I did not start living a healthier lifestyle, it wouldn't happen.
4. I realized that I can't love someone else until I love myself. I know I'm a good person, but I'm not happy in my current situation.

I'm already 4 lbs into this long, long journey. But I'm glad there are others here who understand!

For my health
To be a curvy beautiful woman-that's in shape
To get in great condition to have children in a year or two

I have many reasons but here are a few:

Like many of you I would like to avoid family health issues - my mom is turning 60 and has never been in shape and she's paying for it now. I want to be healthy and happy at 60...and 26.

I would like to get in better shape before kids - something to work my way back to after babies. And let's be honest, I'd love to feel "hot" before I start making babies.

I want my exterior to match the me I see inside when I think of who I am and what I look like. Where did that girl go? She's making a comeback!

I am tired of dressing like an old woman and I want to live longer!
