I'm getting healthy because...

My body deserves it.




Share your positive reasons! :flowerforyou:

amuhlou

My husband and I promised 'in sickness and in health' .... and we want to give each other as much of the latter as possible

runnercheryl

I want a family in future, and I owe it to my future children. My health doesn't just impact me.

Masterchef2000

Because I'm sick of being fat. ;-)

redcut

for me I have never been heavy until a couple of years ago so I want to get back to the way I was and be around for my daughter I want to enjoy life

greeneyes191

Because I want to be an active retiree and keep riding ----my motorcycle not a motorized chair!!

MaryPhillips90

I want to feel sexy again.

PatasDeGallina

So I can have another baby and then live forever.

Muahahahahahaha.

LeslieMDoyle

so I can look better, feel better, sleep better, and impress my doctor!

Jellyphant

I want to look and feel beautiful.

where to start?

First thing that comes to mind (maybe because I'm at work?) is that I have a duty to tell my patients to lose weight, watch their diet, etc, but at this weight I feel like a hypocrite. Never seemed to bother me as much when I was an RN, but something about being the provider/prescriber/diagnoser makes me feel so much more accountable.

Plus I'm tired of being frustrated when I shop for cute clothes.

Pinoy_Pal

...I want to go all night in the bedroom :devil: oh, and for all that good healthy living stuff!

fbmandy55

So I can wear the cute clothes that I see in stores and love...but haven't normally been able to wear. To feel confident when I go out in public and not ashamed of my appearance. Getting it done!

Bikini_Bound150

Because I'm SICK of being fat!!!! :mad:

And also because I want a baby

poshcouture

I want to love the person in the mirror - naked/clothed. I'd like to walk into a "skinny girl's" store and not get the "what the hell is she doing in here" looks. And I'm tired of hearing that I "have a pretty face."

bcattoes

... being unhealthy sucks! Being fat sucks! Being reliant on daily meds sucks! Feeling like some fat person instead of me sucks!

Sweet_Potato

I was healthy to begin with, but there's always room for improvement.

natvanessa

Quit smoking and revved up to get myself healthy and fit!

Nikkei24

I deserve to be able to fully enjoy life. My Fiance deserves a wife who is around for as long as possible. My future children deserve the best chance at life and a mommy who is a good example. My nieces and newphew deserve a good ro-model. I want to motivate the other people in m,y life that they too can change and they too can live a healthy life.

jen88ve

I want to be able to manage my illness without taking 10 pills a day!

You can do it and you will be happy and do all of those things... or not do (the ones you dont want)

Soupskin

Live as long as possible for my wife and kids. Teach my kids healthy eating habits and exercising as well.

My selfish reason: To have as many motorcycling years as possible.

SofaKingRad

-I'm tired of looking and feeling like poo.
-So I can keep up with my kids.

lolitamylove

Because I want to be the best I can possibly be; I'm technically "healthy" but I'm not at the best shape that I can be... I owe it to myself to be that!!

spectralmoon

Because I'm tired of looking like someone gave me an air enema! :laugh:

coconutbuNZ

It makes me feel better physically and emotionally and when I look in the mirror, I feel pleased with what I have achieved
