Because learning French didn't make girls like me.
True story.
That is funny. But I am sorry that it is a true story. Someone with your sense of humor should not have any troubles with that issue!0 -

Sorry didn't mean to offend anyone with that comment. I didn't mean it in a self-starving way. I just meant it as in, it doesn't matter what other people do around me, I can choose to eat healthily and do exercise if I choose. And I guess that kind of makes me feel better about myself, knowing that I'm controlling myself to make the right "conscious" food choices. Other people can tell me what to do and when to do it but they can't tell me what healthy choices I want to make.0 -

Few specific reasons I want to lose weight:
- To be able to to go a theme park and not even have one concern about if I will fit on a ride
- To be able to shop at a normal store (and not in the 'plus' section!) -- never been able to do this my adult life
- To be able to go to a thrift shop and find clothes i actually like--or a resale shop
- To not have my knees/feet hurt so much
- To be able to wear a ring without my fingers looking so fat
- To be able to wear a dress feeling good about myself
- To have insurance tell me i could do a breast reduction surgery
- To be able to dance and not worry what is bouncing that shouldn't be
- To be able to do some type of sports
- Just to be seen as 'normal'
- To feel good about myself
- And later down the road, hopefully find a guy who would love me no matter what shape is was in!0 -
To get my confidence back and I want to feel sexy!!

1) because I fell like people stare at me because of my size - I want to catch people looking at me and think they must think I'm hot instead of they must be thinking look at that big fat girl
2). I want to stand I front of my full length mirror and not, breathe in, turn away or cry.
3) I want to enjoy shopping again0
