    I'm tired of the way I look and not having the energy for morning walks and bycicle riding that I had 10 years ago. I'm just disgusted with how I let myself go. I quit smoking for my health 10 years ago and gained 65 pounds. It's time to get serious about losing it now.

    I was tired of feeling bad about myself. I was tired of trying on clothes that fit 6 months ago and now I can't even get into them. I was tired of feeling lazy and sluggish. I was tired of not being able to find clothes in my size. And of course pictures. It was a lot of different things for me.

    I was just being supportive of my SO and thought she'd feel better if I "suffered" along with her so I got the app she was using -- then I was surprised how easy it was (esp. for a larger than avg. guy) to lose weight and liked the result -- she kind of gave up (not much to lose anyways) and I've just kept on going
