    1. I'm tired of finishing a marathon or half-marathon and being too big for the largest women's "finisher" shirts
    2. I hate how people are surprised how fit I am (fit test, races, warrior dash) because I don't "look" it
    3. A friend pointed this out to me the other day, and I insisted it wasn't true... but upon further thought I think she's right: I like the big 'n' tall guys... and they always seem to end up with thin women so there's a little part of me that hopes losing the size will help me attract the kind of mate I want.

    1. So that my children will grow up in a healthy, fit home, and become healthy, fit adults.

    2. Because I'm starting to see all the morbidly obese family members deal with major health issues, and that terrifies me. I don't want to be in their shoes.

    3. And because I want to be as beautiful on the outside as I feel and my husband deserves.

    and a bonus 4. Because I want to be able to ride a rollercoaster again!

    1. To show my ex's that they're missing out!

    2. To beat the genetics my parents say can't be done.

    3. To finally feel pretty.

    I love this response, I think the first one should be just to be healthier overall, but don't hold it against me for voicing my opinion. Don't ever let anyone tell you it cannot be done. This is an awesome attitude to have towards this.

    By the way, I am not trying to lose weight anymore because I just lost about 37 pounds and I am trying to actually gain some lean muscle.

    1. Feel confident and happy about my body.

    2. So I can live to be 90+ like my grandparents.

    3. Be known as someone who's fit and healthy - I don't just want to lose weight, I want to be in shape.
