Do people here have specific reasons they want to lose weight?

Mine are because I have hypertension. I don’t want to have a heart attack and die. What are your reasons?

    I'm in maintenance now but it was basically because my doctor at the time said he wanted to see me at 160 (I was 225 then) and I had nothing better going on in my life :)

    I hit 160 and just kept going (with some bumps in the road).

    Tuesday gets a bad rap - have you considered maybe starting a hip hop podcast or maybe a cooking class on Tuesdays?

    If I were to start a cooking class, it would be the shortest course in scholastic history.

    I'll be honest and say that my reason was purely for vanity and in part because my dream is to be a MILF

    How's it feel to have a dream come true?

    Hip hop podcast it is - can I prepose a round table discussion with myself - @FeastRepeat and @MelG7777 - I mean you’d just be getting started so we have to remain realistic about guest expectations Amirite

    I don't know my reason.

    All I know is that after I stopped drinking pop, began drinking more water, and eating healthier and exercising, I've felt better. I want to keep feeling better.

    Weight loss...I've wanted to lose weight my whole time, but never for me. Always for other people. To change how people saw me and treated me. That's not a good reason.

    But now, I'm thinking, even if it's for a bad reason, better to lose weight and be healthier than to continue to live my unhealthy lifestyle.

    In my opinion this is the best reason. Do it because it feels good
