Lose the weight because you want to be the best you possible. Lose the weight because you want the best chance of a disease free life, because you want the highest quality of life. Because you never want to fear going on an amusement park ride, because you don't want to be limited. Because there is no reason to settle for a second best life, not when there's first best right within your grasp. Lose the weight because you CAN, you've got the ability. Lose the weight because you CARE what you put into your body, that it matters how you treat yourself and you deserve the best out of life. Lose the weight because you respect yourself and to overfeed yourself is a form of abuse and you wouldn't abuse a friend, a stranger, a dog. Lose the weight so you'll never have to wonder, "what if". Lose the weight so you can have the highest level of self confidence, self worth, self respect.
Lose the weight because it's an absolute blast going shopping and having an enormous wardrobe of FABULOUS clothing!!!
The list is really endless. The list of the benefits of being overweight - not too long now, is it??? I always feared giving up the high calorie/high quantity food would be a hardship, turns out that was FALSE. The hardship, the burden was EATING that way and remaining fat. Turns out adhering to a healthy lifestyle is a blessing and a joy of unbelievable proportions.
