    1. I like to eat.
    2. I love feeling confident about my body (and skills) in the bedroom with my boo.
    3. I like to eat.
    4. I like the attention that I get from guys (They can't have me...but it's entertaining to see their efforts...lol)
    5. I really like to eat
    6. It helps with any feelings of anxious or anxiety that I'm feeling

    Because I love seeing head's turn and girls smiling while I'm running shirtless
    Because my ex is a total b!tch and I want to really make sure she knows what she's missing
    Because I hate failing at anything and with strength and stamina comes success
    Because sex gets better with every extra pound you can lift and every other muscle that shows
    but it's for my health and so I feel good because ^these^ reasons make me shallow :cry:

    Pretty much these! But I don't run without a shirt cuz I am a trail running chick and don't want attention! So let's say its awesome when on of my family/friends/coworkers tell me I look awesome!

    Oh and one more... When ppl ask how many miles I ran, I love saying things like "18 miles Saturday but only 3 on Sunday"". They pause before saying "holy crap". It's sorta awesome knowing you can do stuff others won't even try!

    To look good, feel good, stress relief, be stronger, be healthier, do things at 45 that I couldn't do (or at least wasn't doing) at 35, challenge myself, challenge and inspire others, and eat all the foods and fuel this machine. :drinker:

    I like feeling sexy. I like making heads turn. I like being able to have the "cheat" foods occasionally. It makes me feel as though I've accomplished something. And when I'm really working, I can turn off my brain for a while and not concern myself with anything other than the joy of working out.

    I have discovered forms of exercise that appeal to the same neurological sensory issues that cause me to stim, so it becomes a natural progression of basic movement done out of desire for sensory input.

    What do you need clarification on?
