Awwwwww, I love this one.

I want to lose weight so that people will see me! How come the bigger you get the more invisible you get?

[smyrah]

all of us have a reason.

[lisaslost]

1: When I stand up, to look down and see my feet.

2: To feel better. Inside and out.

3: And to save money on clothes, cause skinny clothes are cheaper.

4: To finally get a life, and not the one from my sofa or my computer chair. Thats the one I have now and its not to great.

[smyrah]

you must have a reason.

[smyrah]

we know

I want to lose weight because I have a theory that if I just look straight down instead of having to bend so far forward to see the numbers on the scale it will read a much lower number.

Can't wait to see if it is true!

LOL, love that one. I'm 24 too, well at the end of the month I will be, and I feel a lot older...except I have a dog.

I have a lot of reasons. Some of the big motivators right now are:

1. I want to feel sexy again. When I first met my husband, I felt incredibly sexy even though I was still overweight. Now almost 5 years, 1 baby, and 100 lbs later (I know, I know)...not so much.

2. I want to shop in regular stores again. I love clothes, shopping and getting gussied up for no reason but, for me, that's not as fun right now. I still do it though

3. I don't want my son to grow up with a fat mommy. Honest truth. I want to be able to keep up with him and (this one's for me) not be the biggest mommy on the playground.

Reasons that I want to lose weight:
1. I have always been 'fat' but I have now let myself go so far that I actually feel like crap because I am so big, so, to feel better.
2. Husband will be more attracted to me (even though he says he likes the way I look, I know he will like it more when I'm thinner)
3. I won't be embarrassed to go anywhere or do anything.
4. I can hang out with people and won't stick out like a sore thumb because they are all 100lbs.
5. Maybe my family and my husband's family will stop critisizing me about my weight. (This will never happend, but one can wish, right?)

Good luck all!

5) I want my husband to not be able to keep his hands off me!!!
6) I don't want to be the fat friend.


I can totally relate to the 'fat friend' one - I have a couple of friends that purposly take me clothing shopping with them to stores that I can't fit into anything at and just shove it in my face big time.

I also love the husband one, its always a great motivator for the person that you love to REALLY find you irrisistable!

I'm losing weight because:

1.) I want to be healthier
2.) I want to look better
3.) I want to feel better about myself
4.) I want to have a boyfriend someday... *sigh* lol
5.) I want to know what it feels like to wear shorts, swimsuits, dresses, etc..
6.) I want my crush to ask me out....

i want to feel connected to my body again. the kind of connection that will make makey my body powerful. i want to be able to run up a tree like its easy, to streach AAALLLL the way foward in a straigh leg streach. to kick over someones head with no sweat. i want to be a force to be reackoned with. i want ppl to look at me, and be able to tell, just by the way i walk, that i can do anything. anything at all
