    And, the aliens will definitely rather feed on us if we have a little bigger:laugh: rather than choose the skinny folks. Too much trouble to chase them down for basically a snack.

    I don't necessarily want to lose weight, just get super lean and toned. And my reason is to feel good :)

    Good for you for wanting to be healthy!

    BUT I went through 3 pregnancies while on high blood pressure medication. Sometimes you don't have a choice.

    I was soooo tired of feeling tired all the time! It's a HORRIBLE feeling to have to tell your 2 young kids that "mommy can't, because she's too tired". It was breaking my heart. Plus - my daughter (3.5 when I started, 4 now) is starting to REALLY NOTICE everything I do - I want to see a better example for her and my son. I want to teach them about healthy food choices, and being active.

    (I never tell them I'm doing this to lose weight - I don't want them to think that a number on a scale is important - I tell them I'm doing it to be healthier).

    Well...I could write a book regarding this question but some of the reasons are I wanted the outside to match the inside, I was in my twenties with knee pain and back pain, I wanted to be able to prove to myself that I could do it.

    Because one day when the villains will attack the earth, I need to be fit. I need to have good cardio to run and jump, I need to be strong to fight and somewhat thinner so I will feel utterly awesome in my action hero outfit.
    Belive it or not, this is what goes through my head on the treadmill, listening to rock and roll.

    Okay! This made me laugh!!!! I will try to think of this on my next run! I wonder how fast I could go if I thought a heard of slobbering zombies were chasing me!!! LOL!!!

    Thanks for the giggle!

    Zombies chasing you? There's an app for that. It maps out zombies in your town and the closer/farther you run from them, the louder/quieter they sound.

    To go Skydiving; Rocky Mountain Climbing and stay 2.7 Seconds on a bull named Fu Manchu...to live like I was dying.

    I see what you did there. :wink: They're still good reasons!
