My one reason for staying on plan today is because I'm sooooo close to Onederland. 15 pounds away might not sound close to some people, but I've lost 61 so far and I know I can get these 15 off too. When I get to 199, I'll be "overweight" according to all those charts, instead of "obese." I don't feel "obese" now, because I can run and do yoga and all those things I couldn't do before. My life has changed so much!

I'm staying on plan today because I want my children to be proud of their mom, not be secretly ashamed at that mom around their friends.

I agree with the shopping issue! I do not want to shop in plus size stores forever. The prices for nice work clothing are way too expensive! Plus, whenever my friends and I go shopping, I am the only one who has to find larger sizes.

And...I want to live a healthy and active lifestyle.

My reason is just to see the scale move downward! I'm taking this step by step right now. I have to just do this. This is my job. It is what I need to devote all my attention to at this point in my life!!!!

The one reason I'm staying on plan today is because by staying on plan, I'm showing my self that I'M in control, and I am worth it!

[SexyRevealed]

My reason for staying on plan today is because you have to start somewhere.

ETA: And my supervisor WOULD just come by and tell me that there's birthday cake in the kitchen... I'm staying away though.

[truelies]

I want to spend my 20th birthday (9/17) in Onederland

[Monkeybabies]

I want to stay on plan today because I feel good.

I am staying on plan today because someone made a snide remark about my weight yesterday and tried to cover it up with a "just kidding" .
They were not kidding, it was not funny, and it was so not OK. It hurt, but it sure in the heck was my motivation for the day.

[boaterswife]

Karma, so sorry to hear about the nasty remark! Keep it in the back of your mind that one of these day's that person will be eating their words!!!!!

I'm staying on plan today because if I can do it feeling so crappy, I can do it anytime!!!

I am just sooo excited to get to 199 lbs and then 187 (that'll be 100 lbs LOST) and then 175 and then 160 and 143 (half of my starting weight) and then 130) and then 125!!!!

[GirlyGirlSebas]

The One reason I'm staying on plan today: I don't feel well, sinuses are aching, but I refuse to comfort myself with food!

[Mrs Quadcrew]

The one reason I am staying on plan today:

Because it gets easier with each passing day ~ I love my new life!


You're almost there Robin!!!!

Karma ~ I just had a similar incident a week or so ago.....but we have the right mindset - it just makes us stronger. (and go get some of NESunshine's mojo - she is sharing some with me!)

[Casey4]

is because I am feeling better physically and emotionally every day.

Karma- You know we might have to struggle with our weight issues, but we can change that with commitment and work. That poor person has a "soul" issue and may never have relief from that!

[beautifulone]

Karma ouch, sorry you had to go through that!

Rockinrobin - wow... you are inspiring!! way to go

The one reason I am staying on plan today is because it is easier to stay on and keep going than it is to get back on after falling off... and right now I have enough stress in my life without having to deal with getting back on. Plus, I want so much to get down to 215 (mini-goal)!
