What are you losing weight for?

Most importantly- my health. I am 26 and on 2 bp meds.
My self image- I want to look at pictures of myself and smile not want to vomit.
My wedding- feel comfortable enough in my own skin to feel beautiful and not self conscious when I am walking down the aisle.
My children..... when I have them, lol.

For myself, so I can feel better. My husband finally got on board after a stern talking to from his doctor, so it is much easier to deal with the changing of my eating habits.

For my 18-month-old, so when he wants to go outside and play, I actually have the energy to do it.

So I can look good in clothes. I refuse to buy bigger jeans anymore.

For my patients and fellow nurses, so I'm not so grumpy with them. When I was thinner, I was happier. Having the extra weight has affected my attitude. Now that I know what the root of the problem was, I can do something to fix it.

this dress

OOH! Love it!

To prove everyone else wrong. To look better than the ppl who always talked **** bout me. Look @ them *****es now. To boost my self esteem. To finally be happy.

To Become the best version of me that I can be.

I mostly want to feel healthy again. I lost weight before and gained it all back.

I also want to like myself again. I moved to the USA from Canada and I have no friends here, just my husband, so I am pretty lonely. Sometimes I feel really down from loneliness, and then I start to pick on myself and I want to stop doing that.

We are having a wedding reception in Canada in June for my family and friends who couldn't make it to the States for our wedding and I have a gorgeous dress that I bought when I was at least 30 lbs lighter that I need to fit into!
