    The things that I hate about being overweight is my stomach becoming a muffin top due to bloating and weight gain, not having enough energy to get through the day, not doing enough cardio, burning off a little fat, and having people say that I'm getting too big to fit into my own clothes. I never want my tummy to have a muffin top again and I never want to be fat like my friends and family have over the years. :indifferent:

    Having doctors believe being fat is why I'm sick. It's going to be hilarious when I get to a "healthy" weight and become immortal. :huh:

    Seriously....is there anything thing to like? Think of all the reasons you would love to be at a normal weight then do a reverse 180. Yup, I came up with nothing either.

    Shopping for clothes
    Looking into the mirror
    Not being able to tie my shoes without breathing hard because my stomach is squishing my lungs
    Snide remarks from anyone (family, friends, etc)
    Feeling crowded sitting in booths, seats, etc.

    ~ Being judged. It's done all the time to everyone. Society is harsh. Even with good self esteem you know it's there. I am the same person regardless of my size. :flowerforyou:

    1. Not wanting to be in pics because I look like a whale
    2. I'm afraid of teaching my kids bad habits
    3. Loving vintage/retro/kitsch/other cute clothing and not being able to shop for it because nothing fits
    4. Low sex drive

    Going to change the question to a positive. The reasons why I want to lose weight are:

    To put on socks and tie my shoes without struggle.

    To roll over in bed without difficulty.

    To sit and get back up off the sofa without effort to do so.

    To not feel like I am suffocating when I lay down. I don't think I fall asleep...I think I am blocking my air with how heavy I am.

    To walk and play outside without being winded after a block.

    To get control of anxiety and depression.

    To be a role model for health for my child.

    To feel as good on the outside as I am beginning to on the inside.

    To not be at risk for heart attack and other health issues.

    To remedy the damage that being on steroids for 14 years did to me.

    To have better sex with my partner.

    To be able to wear clothing that does not come from a plus size store.

    To be able to exercise better.

    To be happier.

    Having to have my husband put my shoes and socks on for me.

    Going up stairs putting me out of breath then coming down sideways one foot at a time always being afraid I'd fall.

    Isolating myself and not leaving my house unless I absolutely had to.

    Eating so poorly for so long I became malnourished and had to be hospitalized. This one really upset me. I was there with young girls who were anorexic or bulimic and all very thin. Then there I was the elephant in the room. So shameful.

    Having no self-esteem at all.

    For me it's looking lumpy Niall my clothes. Having to try on 20 things before I find even one thing that looks ok. Being breathless when climbing stairs. Thighs rubbing together. In summer wearing shorts and having them ride up in the middle. Having to wear spanx or control top pantyhose under dresses in summer so I don't jiggle stinks too.

    I think that everyone has pretty much covered all the reasons. I can't really think of anything else to add. I'm just sick and tired of being sick and tired. I just finished school and I am taking a week off to rethink how I am going to tackle this problem yet again. Starting April 15th things are getting pushed into high gear. My 16 year old daughter and I are going Six Flags hopping this July and I want to make sure that I can ride all the rides with her. :noway:

    I don't feel comfortable in my clothes.
    I don't FIT into my clothes.
    I can't go bear legged without getting chafe marks and pains on my thighs.
    I'm not as confident as I was when I was skinnier.
    I can't get away with wearing my corsets and shorter skirts without feeling like I look like a fool.
    My jawline isn't as strong as it was when I was skinnier.
    My ARMS.
    I don't feel attractive.

    Having my additional weight sit on my belly and hips. Rings that don't fit anymore.
    Clothes increasing in size. These are a few of my fatty things!
