    because I'm fat, and at risk of diabetes.

    Specifically for my wedding but also for my honeymoon

    Congratulations! This was one of my big reasons for getting started. I can tell you that after losing 30lbs I was able to dance all day and not hurt by the end of the day. And yes, the sex has gotten better, too.

    To feel more confident and to rock my wedding dress in june!

    Congratulations to you, too!


    In addition to getting in better shape and looking sexy in my wedding dress I want to be a healthy mom when we decide to start a family. I have PCOS and Hypothyroid and the weight loss will make the process of getting pregnant and having a healthy pregnancy easier. I also graduated nursing school in August and I want to be a good roll model for my patients.

    Great reasons from everyone else, too.

    My goal is less about weight loss and more about strength building. I'm changing careers from being a desk jockey to being a healthcare provider. I need to have better strength and endurance to deal with patients.

    One of my reasons is for my health. It's easier to get a handle on it now than wait when I'm older. I am considered obese for my body frame and height.
    Vanity also plays an impactful role in my lifestyle change. I want to look better in my clothes and such.
    I also want to get physically fit so I can look good (and feel good) in the skin I'm in. But, I want to be healthy on the inside as well.
    Great question! I've wondered this too. :)

    My goal is to just loose my mommy pooch (never really lost 2 pregnancies of baby weight). All I want is to lose 20 pounds and fit into ALL my clothes. Hubby got me a fitbit (well its a Garmin vivosmart actually) for Christmas and I love it.

    Several reasons I need to lose weight. First is for my health, so that I can get off medications that sometimes I think cause more problems than they fix. I have last year finally relieved myself of a bad relationship and now I am intent on improving myself. I would be a lot more confident getting back into the social scene if I was happier about the way I look.
