What is YOUR motivation to lose weight?

Options
I got married almost 4 years ago (almost wrote hours! LOL!) and I want to lose a good chunk of weight before I have kids. I'm looking at at least 70+lbs to lose. I also want to get remarried to my husband and wear the dress of my dreams - rather than having to settle on the plus size one.

What's your motivation?

Anyone please feel free to add me as a friend!

    Going to the beach this June. :D Last year I was completely oblivious on how much weight I was putting on, and now I think I can get rid of at least 10lbs by my beach trip. :) Add me if you'd like.

    I can totally relate, my goal weight is somewhere between 80-90 lbs. but to even take off 50 would be fabulous, I wouldn't complain, lol! Next year my husband & I will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary and I would love nothing more than to renew our wedding vows on a trip that we have planned down south, to be on the beach in a beauitful white flowing beach dress (not plus size) and our 2 girls standing beside me, that's my inspiration :blushing:

    My motivation is having a healthy body so that I will not suffer from all the ailments associated with being overweight.

    1. To feel and look good in my attire again for me and my family :):smile:

    2. To prove to myself that I can accomplish anything with God’s help, when I put my heart into it regardless of what some mean people have to say about it. :wink:

    I'm not an unhealthy weight so it's purely cosmetic haha. Cute clothes and looking good naked.

    Combination of health, babies, not wanting to be single (which I want to come before the babies, and is bigger than just a weight issue, I know), and not a small amount of vanity/jealousy. Having skinny, fashionable friends was a part of the equation, too.
