Before After

Why?

Why do I really want to lose weight?  Let me count the ways -

#1  I want to live!  I want to live to see all three of these beautiful children grow up, get married, and have their own kids.  Now don't get me wrong I want to see all these things, but I'll gladly wait a couple fifteen(twenty or thirty) years minimum!  LOL 

#2  I want to be able to do - do what? Anything!  I want to experience all the "thrill rides" I can - even with  my massive phobia of heights I'd love to go on an ejection seat, bungee jump, and sky dive. All of those things you cannot do while you are fat.

#3  I want to be able to impress.  I'm not looking to impress anyone in particular, but I do want to be able to turn heads.  I want people to think, "Man! Look at how she's changed!!" I was always the fat kid in school after about 6th grade.  I completely blossomed into a fat ass basically over night.

#4  I want to think about surrogacy.  I'd thought about it a few years ago, but now that I know we are done (my tubes are tied) I'd like to help other people.  Now watching one of my friends start the process and get pregnant on the first try is making me want to do this more!

Okay so I will continue to think of thoughts and post them later.  I have to get these kids ready for bed and then find myself a healthy snack.

Great reasons

I love all your reasons for wanting to get healthy but number four really impressed me. That's a very selfless reason and good for you for being so caring. #1 is always the best reason but #2 is also a good one. I stayed away from amusement parks for years just knowing I wouldn't fit on the rides. When I got down to 235 I went to an amusement park and for the first time in ages got to ride all the rides. It's a great feeling. You'll be at your goals soon. You are motivated and are seeking support and that will help you succeed.

awesome!!

Great List of the reasons why!!!! You are doing a great job !!!! Keep it UP!!!
