I want to be fit and healthy. In better shape than I have ever been. I don't want to develop diabetes (which is genetic in my family) or have anymore issues with my liver, or any other organ for that matter. A part of me just wants to wear the cuter smaller clothes etc. To feel sexy naked etc.0

I want to play outside with my youngest and not get winded right away.0

My boyfriend and I are going on our first cruise the end of next month. I want to look good in a bikini. I want him to be smug and happy that I'm all his. I want other girls to be jealous. I'm losing weight to have better self-esteem and to be happy when I see myself naked.0

My health, to be a good rolemodel for my 3 year old daughter, and of course vanity reasons.

Well today is my first day of a new chapter! I brought my flight ticket to move to the Gold COast from New Zealand in July, signed up at my local gym and signed up to this - everything is looking up. I currently am weighing in at 127.5kg my aim is to lose 15kgs in three months - before i fly (5kgs a month). This way i wont be squashed into a seat to much on the plane - or will have to ask for an extra belt (shame). Then I will set my next target. I look forward to support and guidance by everyone that has already started thier journey.0

Wow, me too ! I'm not married, but I can't imagine having kids at the weight I was before
(& I'd still like to lose a little more).
Also, I just want to be able to not have to shop at Torrid/the plus-sized sections of my favorite stores.
I get so mad when I find something cute not in my size.0 -
Skinny clothes!!! :bigsmile:0

To be able to play with my grand children pain free, walk up and down stairs, and to live a long healthy life.0

I'm afraid of gaining weight, so I'm gonna lose it. I'm currently trying to lose 15 lbs and more.
Gaining weight has a lot of health risks, and I want to be healthy for the future.
my motivation is also to look good in a bikini ;D0 -
There is a plan to go to the caribbean in september/october, and for the first time in years I wanna be able to wear a decent bathing suit.
Also to buy small sizes, I wanna reach size 4!. I hate shopping cause sizes are always made for smaller bodies, and I used to hate looking at the mirror while trying stuff in the dressing room. Looking at all those skinny girls at the shopping malls made me feel jealous. I now wanna be one of them0 -
My motivation is being able to wear the clothing that I like, but that don't flatter me right now...like shorts. I also want to get in great shape because I'm not a mother yet, but we're planning to start trying in the fall. I want to be able to have a healthy pregnancy and bounce back after the baby.0

To be healthy again. To be able to wear whatever I want and not have to shop in the plus size section. To be able to be active without losing my breath or being in pain. I want to enjoy life again.0

I've never been a skinny person even once in my life, I'd love to see myself at average weight. Even though I hate the saying, you only live once, and I don't want to go through my entire life without knowing how looking good feels.0
