    I hated feeling like I didn't fit in my skin. It's bad when you feel as if your pants are too tight but once you start feeling like your skin is getting too small..

    Fat sex sucks

    I wanted to feel pride in myself again

    I was tired of feeling sick and tired.

    To get pregnant. No other reason has ever stuck so this is good motivation for me.

    I always wanted to lose weight because I didn't like other people thinking of me as being overweight....if that makes any sence.

    Now I want to lose the weight for me to be healthier and happier so hoping I can stick with it, already fallen off the wagon this week but normally I would just give up but MFP is helping me think about it more.

    To feel confident and at home in my own body.
    To look good for my boyfriend - he deserves a nice looking girl, and I don't ever want to give him a reason to be ashamed of me.
    For the trifecta: brains, beauty and awesomeness.

    Kinda dumb to spend thousands of dollars on a new, lightweight bike if I have any pounds I can lose. Kinda like a fat formula 1 driver. Just would not make sense

    Because I want to shop at Ann Taylor instead of Lane Bryant.

    Mandi, you are awesome, you know. :love:

    I used to be a clothes horse. From the skin out, I was dressed to the nines. I admit, that it will be wonderful to be able to do that again.

    My main motivation, however, was a call from doctor's office, telling me that my A1C was in the double digits. (For those fortunate enough to be ignorant of what that means, it's bad.)

    Hearing a siren and wondering when-not if-you'll hear it coming for you is no way to live.

    I want to be healthy and live a long, quality life. I want to move around without feeling tired so quickly. I want to look good too, don't get me wrong but with the heart disease in my family, I really want to try and beat the odds. My brother worked out, quit smoking for 9 years and still had a heart attack. It was genetics and his diet. It opened my eyes to what can happen to me. It took a bit to get truly fed up but that was a nagging thing in the back of my mind throughout the months leading up to my making the decision to get this weight off once and for all. I don't smoke or drink and this weight was the next thing in the rotation of me getting healthy.

    To get pregnant after failing for 4 years. when i used to diet for my so called looks, it only lasted temporary, now I actually have a goal for something else rather than myself it has made dieting alot easier lol
    I too struggled with infertility for many years. I now have a 2 1/2 yr old daughter and 9m old son. My heart goes out to you. I know how it feels. Please add me. I have learned soooo much through the years.

    honestly, i have so many:

    miss the fact that i used to be the skinniest one of all my friends
    i'm a large size now, refuse to go into the plus sizes
    miss being thrown around more by my partner who is shorter and tinier than me
    health: i don't want cancer, diabetes, heart attacks, dementia, etc. when i am older
    not having to adjust my clothing all the time

    and more!

    You could call it straight vanity and wanting a better body, but really I want the confidence I have with a better body. I just carry myself better.

    To feel better about myself, I want to be as healthy as possible and maybe rid myself of some of my insecurities.

    I want to look good naked again. After I started college, I put on 45 pounds. I was so disgusted and disappointed in myself. I just learned how love myself again and I'm ready to take off this weight!
