    I like to think of it as personal pride in my appearance...lol! I feel sexier and more confident when I'm slender & I like that feeling!

    I knew you would be here

    Vanity...but if the results were just I looked awesome but felt crappy I don't believe I would stick with it.

    I admit it. I will stand up and say I am totally vain... But let me just say this; After years of treating my body like crap and not caring what I put it through, I finally started to care. I have worked so hard to be where I am today, that I am proud to be vain. Proud to care about my looks and my body. I am going to do everything in my power to make the most of the years I have left on this planet, to make up for the times I didn't care! So yes I am vain...but I am still very nice!

    This effort is mostly about looking good for me. My BMI is in the healthy range (high side, but in there), I run marathons, my BP is LOOOW--I am probably not going to get significantly healthier if I lose 20 or 25 pounds. But I don't look good now. And I really want to look GOOD, in clothes and out, with lean muscles and no jiggle. Congrats to you if you are losing weight for all the right reasons, but I just want to like pictures of myself and not be thinking "Jesus H.! Why did I think I could wear that?!"

    My youngest daughter told a boy at school that I can bench press more than his dad. :tongue:
    I watched my mom during her last year of life walk around with an oxygen tank.
    I don't want my daughters to see me struggle up one flight of stairs, be ashamed to introduce me to their friends or have to bury me.
    I want to be around to meet my grandkids, which my mom never did.
    I want awesome spring and summer clothes.
    i want to look hot at 40, 50, 60, 70, and even 80.

    Vain? Hell yeah and a lot more!!!

    I'll be honest and say that's about 90% of my motivation. I want to be hot, not just the girl with the pretty face.

    The other 10% is so that I will be healthy when I finally choose to get knocked up! I want to be able to stay active during the pregnancy and continue with healthy eating.

    It feels good to be honest =)

    LOL... I guess I'm a member of that club... I'm in Louisiana and I'm pretty darn vain too. I could say that I do this for my health but that would totally be a lie. I do this because I want to look good and feel good. I also get a weird sense of satisfaction from knowing I can discipline myself to do what I have to to achieve my goals.

    Guilty as charged, in it for the vanity! I am medically healthy, low BP, low cholesterol, no issues. The most I've ever been over weight is 30 lbs. not including pregnancy. When I am that big I feel invisible. I don't like to be invisible. My mom looked and dressed like an old lady way before her time, she's just now 65. I am not going to be that mom. I have teenagers and preschoolers so I do intend to be around for a long, long time and I am going to be healthy and fit and able to keep up with all of them all while looking fabulous! :)

    Oh I am sooooo VAIN!!! I admit it! My intention was to lose my pregnancy weight and get back to my old size...mission accomplished! Now I can't seem to get enough....so I made a new goal! Next stop...STRING BIKINI!!!! :blushing: Even as a teenager (when I was in the best shape) I was always too self conscious to wear one....well this time I'm pushing myself to look even better than I did then. Of course, there's the added benefit of feeling more energized and being healthier all around. :happy:
