    Look good naked. I won't try to to hide it, it's straight-up vanity. It's why I started and it's why I continue. All other health benefits are strictly icing on the cake. :wink:

    Honestly...
    I am tired of looking at myself in the mirror and hating myself.
    I want a baby but I don't want my weight to cause problems.

    I'm 48 years old and headin' towards menapause. I would love to lose 25 lbs before I turn 49. I know it will be much, MUCH, harder to lose it after I'm 50ish.

    A mix of vanity and athleticism. I want to be very comfortable in my own skin (currently I can't sit alone in shorts without feeling shameful and gross), but I also want to run marathons, climb mountains, etc.

    To carry less weight when I run which in turn will allow me to run further, faster, and easier.

    To stop going up in pant sizes and so that I can do everything that I want to do. I live in a beautiful area (nc mountains) and would love to be able to take advantage of it and hike and whatnot without getting so sore and out of breath :)

    It's all about looks honestly. I want to fit into certain clothes and not dread going to a beach.

    1. aesthetics
    2. functionality (strength, flexibility, cardiovascular endurance)
    3. health

    these are all pretty close to being the top reason but aesthetics is definitely the one that got me off my *kitten*

    I no longer feel sexy in everyday clothes or naked....I miss waking up in the morning and feeling sexy fresh outta the shower.

    I want to look amazing for my daughters 15th birthday celebration

    It shouldn't be such a struggle or painful to tie my shoes or to find clothes to wear

    Look good naked or clothed, hike without running out of breath, and just rub it in my ex's face and be like "Told ya so" :laugh:

    I want to lose weight so if by chance I ever run into my boyfriend's ex, who is one of those girls that thinks she is the cutest thing on the planet and is actually ugly outside and in (she cheated on my boyfriend when they were together and tried to make it his fault and then has since cheated on every guy she has been with since him - we know this because she only dates his friends, she is a turbo slut) I want her to feel bad about herself when she looks at me and realize that he not only upgraded to someone who values and cherishes him, but also someone who is crazy hot. <--- That is my b*tchiest reason to lose weight. lol But not my main one.

    But I also want to be able to not have the same nightmare of wedding dress shopping as prom dress shopping was. Nothing fit and I left the store in tears every time. I'm tired going shopping and having a hard time finding cute clothes just for every day.

    Oh and to be healthy...blah blah blah.

    I'm sick of being the fat sister. Also sick of family listening to my skinny unhealthy sisters advice and doing cleanses and starving themselves, I want to give them a reason to listen to me. Also I want my ex that told me I was getting to fat to eat his words, and I want my soon to be husband to be proud (he already is but I want him to be even more).

    getting to a good pre-baby weight so i am not at an ultra high post-baby weight
    then the goal will be to get back down to pre-baby weight.
    then it will be to maintain a healthy, milf body.

    I want to show 'em skinny b*tches at work/uni I am sexy as *kitten* and not just pretty-faced.

    I want to wear that leather corset I've dreamed of for ages and not buy it plus size.

    I want to have a pinup photoshoot.

    I want to make my SO pass out from all my stamina.

    I want to make my ex drop dead when she sees me and my fine a**.

    I'm 48 too and trying to lose for the same reason. I'm already in the menopause process. I want to be healthy going into my 50's as my metabolism drops. I'm tired of being tired too. :)

    Honestly, I want to go to Toronto next year for school, and not feel as if people are looking at me and stereotyping me. In my first 'bout of college, I was one of two girls in my program. Of course, the other girl was skinny, tanned, and beautiful. I was in television-broadcast, and all the guys always put her in front of the screen and me in the background. I had the brains, I had the on air personality, but I wasn't pretty enough to be wanted on screen. I guess this put a huge damper on my self esteem, and I don't want people to look at me and use my weight as a barrier to do something.

    TV reporters/broadcaster's image reflect on the station, imho. Also public perception. I wish you success. And yes, I'm sure your weight played a larger part in your screen-time. Lose your weight and go show those producers what they were missing!! :angry: :bigsmile: I wish you lots of success in both your weight loss and your professional world. :flowerforyou:

    1. So I can walk from the Car to my Desk without getting Winded - DONE
    2. To reach healthy medical numbers - DONE
    3. To be able to be active and push myself to accomplish more - Done and In Progress
    4. To Drop Below 10% Body Fat and see my ABS for the First Time - In Progress
    5. To get STRONG

    I am sure the goal will keep changing as I go. I want to be the guy that people look at and go WOW, he's how old?

    For exercising, I like it.

    For losing weight....well, I wanna meet someone and for this chick, my stunning personality, charm, and sense of humor ain't enough. Trust me, I know the deal and THIS GAL needs to be fit in order to attract.

    So I don't grow old with all kinds of health issues like my Dad. I also have cancer on both sides of the family and the healthier you are, the better chance of not getting it. I'd like to be hot but I NEED to be healthy!

    The reason I choose to exercise/push myself every day is 110% BEING FIT/IN SHAPE/HEALTH
