Why I Want to Get in Shape: Re-write

Here is my original "Why I want to get in shape" blurb from when I filled out my profile 9 months and 60 pounds ago. I just reread it, and realized I need to change it because some of these goals are now realities! Yeah!

I want to improve my health so I can enjoy life to the fullest. I know that my excess weight is holding me back in many areas of life, and I am tired of it. I want to have the strength and stamina to do great things again, instead of just watching from the sidelines. I can do it, too! Just watch and see.

I need our community's help with this one. Please take one or more sentances and suggest a re-write which will affirm the progress I have made, and my commitment to continue, and then add some realistic goals.

I promise to review each and every suggestion, and use them in crafting my new "Why I want to get in shape" mission statement
