    My fat pics!

    Definitely!

    My dad who was able to quit smoking, lose weight, get off his blood pressure meds, and now jogs 4-6miles everyday at the age of 55. My dad is of course my hero.
    My nephews who are getting older and I need to be able to keep up. (I also worry about keeping up to keep them safe)
    My professional career. It's very hard to be able to work a medical job and be taken seriously at it when you're over 200lbs. I also see a time in the future when they'll start hiring based on something stupid like BMI.

    My kids - I want to be healthy enough to be here for them for a long time. I want to have the energy to do all the things with them that younger mothers can do. (I had my kids when I was a little older).

    Myself... I can't expect anyone but me to motivate me to be healthy!! However the support from my husband , kids and especially all of you here keeps me being motivated to keep at it!!! I don't have friends that are motivating they are quite sabotaging or just don't care enough about themselves so I have to stay away from allowing that to bug me :smile:

    My boyfriend. We've been together for over a year and I was thinner when we started dating. I had a lot of spinal problems and my main exercise was running. With all of the stress from the various operations and then school on top of it, I stopped counting my calories and I didn't want to work out if it wasn't running.

    But I really want to be beautiful for him again. In my eyes. Healthy, fit, motivated. He said I was beautiful already but it is NOT ENOUGH for me. I think he might join me on this journey and I can't wait to kick *kitten* and take names together when we move in at the end of July
