It really does suck to be fat! However, while I am, I might as well get some pleasure out of it by pointing out things that will motivate me to change.

If you'd like to motivate yourself and others, fill in the blank.

I can't wait until the day when...

Here is mine.

I can't wait until the day when...
my stomach doesn't fold into a hotdog bun vertically and horizontally.

    Good one. I am at about .5miles now. I don't see the 5k/3miles in sight but aspire to get there.

    Oh boy! That's ambitious! I haven't even considered that.

    I can't wait until my "fat" isn't the first thing I see in the mirror.

    Lol. This is funny! I am certainly not cute in heals, especially after about 10 minutes of standing. I wear them occasionally for church and have to take them off during standing portions of service. Oh...and the dreaded walk to the car afterwards!

    Me too...I actually graduated to leggings then my regular clothes and just put my feet in the water. Funny but also sad. Just realized I have been lying when I say I don't like the beach. This certainly motivates me to put my self-consciousness aside and also work on my body. Who knew I'd have an aha moment? Thanks!

    my body weight/strength ratio is reversed (I'm really strong, but not very strong in comparison to my body weight).

    I can't wait until I can run a 5k in under 30 minutes! (right now I can run for maybe 4 minutes without stopping). It's a lofty goal, but I WILL get there one step at a time. :)

    I have been working so hard toward this day, myself! I'm using a pull-up assist machine, and have been slowing lowering the amount of "help" I get. But when I try an unassisted one... NOTHING. I mean... nothing at all happens. Ha. Oh well. My arms are looking great from all the trying, and that's what I choose to notice!

    I can't wait until the day when I want my boyfriend to look at me again, instead of getting self-conscious of my weight when he looks at me and wishing he'd look away.

    Hopefully you will be pulling up your trousers because you have lost so much weight they are just falling off you. :D
