Health Issues.....so far so good but it was only a matter of time before my weight brought on high blood pressure, diabetes etc. I have teenagers and would like to stick around to see them graduate from college, marry, have children etc.

Congrats on reaching a goal.....

Wow !!!!! Girlfriend I am sooooooo proud of you ! YIPEEEEE!
My modivation is of course health issues but also how I feel about what I presenting to the world. What I am saying about myself with my appearance. I am giving an impression to all I meet that is contrary to who and what I am beneath the weight.

I must admit I have never been one to concern myself with what people think as everyone has an opinion usually incorrect to a large degree and in short time the opinions are usually quite good. I love people and they respond. It is natural when sincere.

BUT..... what I am saying about myself is where the problem lies. I want to present the person I really am just once in my life. To express myself freely without weight worry. To do and be just as I am and look the part.

I want to be the person I am on the inside. My biggest motivator is wanting to live life as I dream of it, and that's a thin person.

I guess I can answer my own question!!! *wink* I've just been SOOOOOOOO Busy lately.

My biggest motivators: My husband, who is being SO supportive through this thing!!!!

The fact that all the new clothes I bought a month ago are too big!!! I love sneaking into smaller clothes!!

Summertime... I want to be able to proudly wear tanktops and show off my tattoo (on shoulder!)
