Here are the reasons I want to lose weight:

1. To be healthy
2. to be a good example for my daughter
3. to be in a better shape to do more active outing with my family
4. To look better
5. to not be uncomfortable in my clothes
6. so my wedding ring fits again
7. to sleep/breathe better
8. to not rock the boat when getting in it.

I am hoping to be able to look at this list before blowing my calories with mindless evening eating. Feel free to list yours too. I would love to see what others are working towards.

    1. To become a better rock climber and biker. Just generally the idea of being able to do cool things that are difficult with my body is appealing.
    2. To get off the last little dose of blood pressure medication I am on
    3. To just be done with the part of my life where I struggle with this
    4. To have a healthy and less anxious relationship with food. Really want to be able to enjoy the ebb and flow of eating healthfully and occasional reasonable indulgence (reasonable meaning controlled to the extent that I don’t eat til I feel sick).
    5. I am curious though a little scared to see if and how people will treat me differently when I am down a bit more, particularly men.
    6. Of course just to see what I look like at a certain weight and to have fun getting a bit creative with my clothes and look (which I should probably just do anyway). Want to try a new haircut that I probably would have shied away from at a higher weight - shorter and edgier.

    15. To fit in the outgrown clothes in my closet
