    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.

    -because i want an adult body

    -because I'm tired of shopping at specialty stores (Lane Bryant...)

    -because I want to wear short pants and shirts with no sleeves

    -because I received a photo of myself as part of a bridal party for christmas and my arms are HUGE!

    -because i want to start dating

    -because I'm tired of volunteering myself to take the picture

    -because i'm tired of squirreling away in the back when asked to be apart of a group photo

    - because I'm tired of buying jeans with spandex sewn throughout the fabric

    -because hoodies in July are not cool

    -because I want to look forward to spring and summer and not fall and winter

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

    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.

    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!!

    Love your responses guys!

    My reasons are because #1 - I owe it to my children to teach them how to live and be healthy. I never want either of them to have the chance of being overweight if I can give them the right tools to begin with! #2 - for myself. I want to feel sexy, beautiful and attractive again. I don't feel that way being overweight!

    I'm getting healthy because....

    I'm sick of dying every time I go up a set of stairs at university...
    And I would like to not die because I couldn't outrun a zombie when the zombie apocalypse happens.

    I want to be a good role model for my little sister.
    I want my body to be healthy enough to conceive again and bring up a healthy baby.
    I don't want my crazy mood swings anymore.
    I want to be able to look in the mirror and think I'm okay looking.
    I don't want to feel freezing cold 24/7 anymore.

    I could honestly come up with a million reasons lol.

    I'm getting healthy because....I'm ready for the life change. I really want to have children and I had a miscarriage in June of last year, mr Dr. was honest with me and told me that my fertility problems are probably caused by my being so overweight. She told me that every 20 lbs that I drop, it'll help me work towards my goal and I'll have a much better chance to get pregnant. On that note, after I have kids, I want to make sure I'm around for as long as possible. Same thing with the hubby, I want us to be together for as long as possible. I couldn't even imagine what I would do if I didn't have him.
