I want to stay on plan today because I hate seeing photos of myself as an "extremely obese" person. I don't want to go back there.

Because I am absolutely entranced by the graph my daily weigh-ins are making. It goes down steeply one week, barely at all the next, steeply the next, barely at all the next, and so on. It's amazing. If I weren't charting this, I'd be freaking out every two weeks, wondering what I was doing wrong, when in actuality it's simply my body's own rhythm!

I feel like a real scientician!

Oh I need this thread, I skipped a couple days and I was not feeling like staying on plan yesterday.

So - My reason today is to find a pair of jeans out of the "too small" pile to wear by Valentine's Day! I have all sizes - 20W down to 16 Misses. I'm wearing my 22W and want to ditch them soon!

Lightbulb The one reason I am staying on plan today....

is I have been reading the YOU on a Diet book and they explained the whole effect eating sugar and bad fats has on my body. I can't ignore the benefits of healthy eating. My body needs these changes.

My reason to stay on plan today is failure is not an option, the only way I can fail is if I give up.

My One reason: Today is exactly 10 days until we go to Disneyworld. I want to be able to keep up with everyone and get in and out of the rides easier. Our last trip to Disneyworld is what convinced me to get my butt in gear and do something about this weight!

In addition to what Rockinrobin just wrote (wonderfully said!), my reason for staying on plan today is that I saw pictures of myself yesterday that were taken a few months ago, and well, .. enough said.

I'm staying on plan today because I can. I've been sick in bed with something resembling a flu since last Thursday morning...today I finally came back to work and am finally able to eat again... I'm hoping that healthy eating and restarting my exercise routine will help me get back to 100% again!
