So that I can show off my body to my sister-who when I first lost weight was a total hater-called me names, nitpicked that I was eating too little, basically tried to accuse me of having an E.D...but never ever acted like that (in fact looked so happy about the way I looked) when I ate ice cream for breakfast every morning and binged all the time. Now she's like "Why don't you ever dress up?" uh cause I can't fit into anything! Funnily enough, she "who loves HER curves" just bought an elliptical. I'm too poor to get one, but I want to prove that i can get there without spending several hundred bucks!
Oh and so I can wear a Herve Leger dress!!!! I saw them in person, its one of my big weight loss goals lol
and go out more often, and therefore have a reason to buy nice makeup
AND buy 1 pair of designer jeans..the first pair of jeans I will wear in over 3 years lol
so if my family who now calls me too fat, calls me too thin because I'm never pretty enough, i can say "meh" and keep on being healthy
I saved lots of money buying cheap "tents" to wear, so I'm definitely treating myself once I get there!
So I can get a VS Miraculous bra and therefore look as hot as my girl roomie.
So I can walk into a room and get attention from not-desperate men!
In our 20's my sister always made fun of me cause i was fat. she of course had the perfect body, and was very pretty as well... well, in our 40's, due to health problems she has gained loads of weight.. in fact she is only about 40 lbs smaller than me... i know this is horrible, and i dont really wanna rub her face in it, but i do want to get below her weight just so She notices..that will be good enough for me....
when we were younger and she used to tease me relentlessly for being fat i used to tell her that one day she would be fatter than me just because of Karma lol... hmmmm
-I want to be the healthiest person in my family, they are all horribly overweight and just very very negative people who are always bringing you down, so I want to rise above and show them I am no longer under their control.
-I want to be able to have no fear going to a carnival or amusement park and ride the rides with out being mortified in front of everyone because I don't fit in the seats.
-I want to make the outside as beautiful as the inside to go with my actually awesome personality, it is just hidden under so much weight.
-to be that pretty hot thing that I feel is inside
this is a motivation that i feel horrid for even having, but...
i have a friend that was always about the weight i want to get to, at 2 inches shorter she had more padding then she liked having but she was still the one that always got hit on in the clubs and whatnot. well in the last year or year and a half or so she hasnt been too happy and has been having mini binges on all things sugar and has gained to about 190, so about 30-40 lbs.
she only recently found out exactly how much she weighs and freaked out. she keeps asking me for help on what to do but doesnt listen to me at all, until someone else confirms what i said THEN she'll do it. a couple weeks ago she joined weight watchers which is a good step if she can stick to it. she consistantly goes through her daily point, exercise points and dips into her weekly extra points. by the end of the week she is usually over her weekly point allowence. she will be good a few days then be mad because she cant tell shes losing anything (she still avoids the scale) then goes crazy for a day or two on food and undos any progress she might have made.
i feel awful for her that she is struggling and wish i could give her the patience that she needs to be successful. but, if she doesnt start actually listening to advice and reason about healthy food choices and how itll take longer then a week or two to lose 30 lbs so have patience, then i will be kinda happy that when i next see her in nov i will finally be the thinner one as she will likely keep gaining and i will keep losing.
to make my now married ex who i work with and have to see everyday think "wow she looks good...how did i let her get away?"
to make my hated fat ugly sister-in-law jealous... she is very big and i use her as motivation of who i do not want to look like, she has no willpower and looks gross
to be able to go out again and not just text guys and talk on facebook... i know there are a few guys interested but i'm afraid if they saw me how i am now they would run... my pic i have up is about a year old
i'd also like to have my pic taken again and not analyze how fat, bloated, gross i look
to be able to wear jeans again and look hot
to be able to wear a short, tight skirt and high boots and look hot
so that i don't wind up all alone and die alone because i feel too fat to meet someone and am scared of rejection
So when I get married (I'm eloping) this fall, I can send pics to my mom, sister, and fiancée's daughter-in-law, and show off my much thinner body. All three of these women struggle with their weight and I want to 1) show off and 2) show them that they too can lose their weight.
1) To be the fittest person at the family reunions. I have a cousin who is exactly a year younger than me and when I was at my lowest weight (about 7/8 yrs ago) told me I looked weird thin and that it didn't suit me. It bothers me that when we do go to reunions she (she is overweight too) wears clothes that are waaaay to clingy and revealing in the chest area and I see her push up the "girls" when she talks to my husband it frustrates the s*** out of me.
2) To be able to post a full body FB pic of me in a bikini and look super hot!
3) To show my mom that diet and exercise does give you results its all about commitment
4) To walk around the mall with my husband and have him keep his arm around my tiny waist to show that I am taken....He did this when I was pregnant because he swore that other men were checking me out from behind
I agree with so many of these; glad I'm not the only one!
I want to be able to wear a bikini confidently for the first time in my life.
I want to be able to try on wedding dresses and not cringe!
I want to WANT candid pictures of me posted on facebook!
Oh I love this so much. My most evil motivations are as follows:
To do what everyone always said I never could or would, including mostly my immediate family.
To be thinner than my best friend (who happens to be male and has lost 200 pounds himself).
To put on a pair of 3 or 4 inch heels and be "that 6'5", thin, sexy, chick."
I hesitated when I first saw this thread, because I did not want to unleash the dark side. But that feeling has passed
-I want to be a fit, trim B*TCH, and piss off the haters in my life even more -I want to wear all the cute clothes I have stored away in my closet, and rock all the colorful, adventurous makeup I love playing with without having to worry about it all emphasizing how thick my waist is or how round my face is (once again, to make the haters jealous)
It sounds so funny to say "haters", but I just wanted to be able to have a blanket term to refer to the catty women at work, and an acquaintance who seems to hate me because she is used to being the "Queen Bee" when she hangs out with her group of friends, and feels like I am a threat when we are at the same place at the same time. If she wants a threat, I will give her a threat!
This is a great thread lol
1. Be a freakin MILF lol
2. Rub it in my dh face that i did lose the prego weight. we have a 7 month old and he seems to think i should have lost the weight already.. and yet he gained as much as i did!!! why is it ok for him to have man boobs, but i actually carried the child, had a freakin c-section and am expected to be thin already .. JERK!
3.wear my sexy clothes again
If she wants a threat, I will give her a threat!
