    I don't have anybody to have kids with yet, but that's my ultimate motivation for losing weight and getting in shape.

    I have at least a year before TTC (finishing school first), and I would like to reach a healthy BMI before TTC, which means I have approximately 60 pounds to lose in the next year. I have already lost 20 pounds, but that 20 pounds took 7 months. So, now hopefully with the help of tracking my food and exercise on mfp, the weight will come off a little faster.

    My mother always used the English saying "You need to get thin to get fat" meaning to get pregnant. This covers both attractiveness and the ability to conceive.
