    Most importantly to be healthy!

    But a few others would be:

    *To not have to ever see 200+ pounds on a scale (the way I was headed I'd prolly be ther in my late 20s)

    *Show my freinds, family, etc. that is CAN be done; no matter what it can be done!

    *to feel better about my body, not having to huff and puff when i walk a simple distance. I wanna be able to comfotable jog 3 miles once im done (im well on my way:bigsmile: )

    Losing weight won't help any of this, you know. No matter how many pounds you lose, you'll never truly love yourself. kendf60 has a good goal.

    wow, way to be motivational...

    I have fallen in and out of love with myself many times and I know that reaching goals, dreams and what-not will help you. Sometimes weight-loss achieve those goals. Like a goal of mine is the hike the grand canyon again, but this time be able to do it without turning purple. I don't know how loving myself will help me do that. But I know I will love myself more when I finally do it and reach that goal in my life.

    I do agree that one needs to love themselves no matter what. But like I said, little goals do help. It is hard to love yourself until you can love yourself, if that is clear at all. It probably isn't but I don't know how to word it LOL

    You are so right! I am a witness of this. Before I would try and try losing weight, but would never get far. One day I finally figured out why; I didn't love myself, truely love myself the way I knew I could. I just chose to put myself down constantly because I was used to that. I encourage everyone to work on your self esteem/confidence in yourself. Notice how you treat yourself. Work on that first and I can guarantee that loosing weight will become the most humbling and joyous journeys you'll ever walk through. Simply because you love YOURSELF!

    I like water parks... and bikinis.

    I want to live and be active forever.

    I want to look awesome for my amazing husband.

    I want to be a ridiculously good yogi; extra weight doesn't help.

    To wear a ponytail and not wonder how fat my face looks

    to run a marathon
    to not constantly think about how I look
    to buy size medium clothes
    to feel proud of myself
    to accomplish the one think that I have not been able to do so far

    To have more HEALTHY years with my family
    To stop being reminded of my fertility struggles every time I look in the mirror
    To feel confident again
    To be a good example to my kids
    Because there is nothing more intimidating than a six foot tall chick, with a PhD, who can kick your *kitten*!
