    For my son. He is eight years old and has Down syndrome. I want to be the healthiest, most fit mom I can be so I can continue to take care of him. Before I lost weight I couldn't get in the floor and play with him. Being outside in the summer was horrible. I had asthma. My son deserves more. And I'm going to give it to him.

    To return to the size I've been my entire life-up to age 46.
    I am not comfortable in my skin at this higher weight.
    I have already gone up one size and had to buy all new pants and refuse to buy more

    I'm a kayaker, so my goal was originally to paddle fastest, longest, and to have an easier time carrying my kayak when we have to portage around dams and blockages. Now I'm running too, so I want to lose more weight to increase my speed. And, of course, to be ready for the zombie apocalypse. If you're ready for zombies, you're ready for just about anything.

    To keep setting a good example for my children -- to show them that taking care of yourself, even if you lost ground for a long time, is important. Exercise, eating healthy, and living out healthy choices are important.

    Also to avoid going back to debilitating pain. After my 2nd son I had severe sciatic nerve pain in my back and legs. I never want to go back to not being able to walk again.

    I want to cut weight to help my running. I started running a year and a half ago, and I want to accomplish time goals in my half marathons and full marathons. Last year was all about crossing the finish lines and this year I want to improve times. Cutting weight to reduce the impact on my joints and to be able to FLOAT rather than PLOD is a great motivator. :laugh:

    To get my health back, I want my A1C to be below 4 so I can come off diabetic meds.
    Promised my nephew I'd go to the beach with him this summer if I was wearing a size 6 again.
    I am just plain tired of being fat and sick.

    I want to be healthy. I want off all medications. I want to feel great, sleep well, and live a long active life. I also want to rock a bikini on my paddleboard.
