eyevory 0 Posted August 20, 2008 Here are my reasons, how about you? To be there for my kids and watch them grow up and have grandkids Better sex life To be able to keep up with my kids To be able to fit on rides at Walt Disney World To be able to go hiking To not have to worry when I am going to get diabetes or other health problems To not have to worry if I die if there will be a coffin big enough To buy clothes because I like them, not because they are the one pair in the store that fit To not be ashamed of having a family picture taken If not now then when?

Florida Pete 1 Posted August 20, 2008 I think many of us would have a lot of the same reasons for why we want to lose the weight. Here is a list of some of my top reason. To feel like a normal person again To be able to shop in regular shopping stores To be able to enjoy running again To be fit as my son gets older To be around a long time for myself and my family To be able to enjoy intemacy with my wife more To be able to fly on airplanes and not ask for the seatbelt extension To feel like I can go in public and not be stared at The list really can go on and on.

eyevory 0 Posted August 20, 2008 Oh yeah, the seatbelt is on my list too! I know these aren't new or unique reasons, but I think it helps to say them out loud to have clear intentions and I am too embarrased to say them to people in person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
