    ME. I'm doing this for me.

    and as a mother...that is the most selfish thing i have EVER done in my life...

    something completely and totally for ME.

    so there you go.

    I completely agree 100%, this is how I feel, too.

    Honestly? To see what I'm truly capable of. I've been living life off of natural ability (not talent - talent takes work) for years and I don't want to be at the end of the road, looking back at my steps and think "was that all you could do?"

    So I'm actively working at the gym, not looking to get ripped or to look good at the beach. I want two things - speed and power.

    The order of my list shuffles by the day, depending on what's happening, but mostly, it's to do anything I want. I'm not settling for reading about and watching on TV the things I want do and see because my body doesn't DO as well as it once did.

    So.. I'm getting in shape for The Travel Channel? lol.

    It ties into the people I want to go and do things with though, too. I don't think I'd be so motivated to go forth and conquer mountains if I didn't want to do it with my family.

    For me, and yes this is a completely vein reason, I want to look sexy. I want a body that I can be looked at naked and look hot. Yes there are other reasons like health, but my number 1 is what it is.

    I don't want to die of a heart attack at 50 or develop diabetes. My number 2 reason is wearing cute clothes.

    My 30th birthday is looming, and I can't rely on my metabolism to keep me skinny forever. I want to age insanely gracefully and kick some *kitten* in more obstacle races.

    My main reason is vanity but it all ties into having a better life...


    Looking good gives me confidence which makes me feel good which makes me smile more which makes me happier which makes me less stressed which makes me have more sex which makes me even more happier which.. well I could go on forever.

    Being fit = better life

    This is similar to how I feel... Crazy how being more fit does all that. I feel like I can accomplish more, and I have the energy to do so. I won't be stuck spinning my wheels my whole life. It's a snowball affect. Feel a little better, do a little more, which makes you feel even better, which starts to show to others, which makes them happier, which makes you happier, and then you just feel great!!

    I agree, and call it vain if you want, I want to look hot. I want to be healthy, but I want the rockin' body I had back in college and to look great naked. I will never be "skinny" as most people define it, but I want to have a tone, healthy body that I'm not afraid to show off.
