    To not have to worry about what chub is trying to squeeze out of my pants.

    To put on whatever clothes I feel like without having to worry about if they might fit.

    I am an open individual naturally with my personality and I would like my free spirit to reflect in my style as well; sheer tops, bohemian clothes that "fit" right and don't just look like a bought them bigger to fit but that they are bigger for the style.

    Just plainly to feel like myself inside and out.

    To feel confident and sexy and be able to wear WHATEVER I want (bikini, short shorts) and feel strong and not be out of breath all the time ;)

    So that i can to my favorite place, the beach, the pool, the lake (everywhere that you need to wear a bikini) and make everyone envious, and to make my sister realize that i am hotter and smaller. Because she always buys me stuff a size bigger than hers and she doesn't fit in her clothes. So i will show her up this summer.

    Ultimately, i want to be able to play at the beach, lake, pool and not have to hide in a chair or in the water.

    I'm raising four daughters and we are entering the teen years, adn I realize that I've not taken care of myself. I want my girls to know their mom cares about her body, inside and out. My outside is having a huge impact on my inside, and I need to get this down and I want my girls to see that I'm trying, that it is hard, but that I am suceeding. Hopefully I pull it off...

    I don't have kids but I do have high school ages students in a phys. ed. class and i want to see me being healthy and maybe apply something that i tell them/ show them to their own lives.

    Knowing that the 2012 soccer seasons is creeping upon me makes me want to get that much more in shape so that I can compete strongly against my girls and take part in all parts of the practice not just the easy drills.

    My motivation is fear.... fear I will gain all the weight back and fear I will have all the health issues my mother has.

    I have two motivations right now. I want to look good when I look in the mirror and get use out of my new somewhat expensive running shoes.

    I found when the "hey are you losing weight?"comments start ,that seems to be the motivation and finally gives you some confidence that other people notice your hard effort

    Nike ads! they are so well produced hahaha.

    Not having to search for things in "my size". i.e. walk into a shop and buy whatever clothes I want.

    Health and fitness so I can avoid getting type 2 diabetes like everyone else in my family and can be a better judo competitor if I compete.

    People tend to like you more when you are fitter and not fat. It is a just an instinctual thing and makes sense.

    Not having a ghetto booty ;)

    Health - my family has heart problem history

    My Fiancé - we've been together for 8 years already and although I know he loves me no matter what, I want to always keep him interested and proud that he's got an awesome fiancé/wife to be.

    I don't want to be skinny, I want to be strong and fit, so I lift heavy weights 3 days a week, I do cardio 3 days a week and I'm getting back into the stretching work outs too.

    I finally realized that I do want kids and I want to be healthy when I have them and also for them as they grow so that they grow up taking care of themselves the way that I did.

    I know I'm not old, but hitting 35 soon. I want to enjoy these years while I'm still young and look GOOD! I'm so much more confident when I'm looking and feeling good. When I look around, it seems like the majority of people are overweight. i dont want to be in the category anymore. A healthy weight to me mean success.

    The feeling I get from achieving something! A 10km run, a high intensity class at 6am (!!) or clocking up the kms in my half marathon training.

    My boyfriend too - and looking awesome in little clothes. They help too!!
