What're Your Top 5 Reasons???
| Tue, 08-10-2004 - 3:24pm |
This board is getting boring--so....Give me your top five reasons for wanting to lose weight, and how you think they'll make you a better person.
1. Look better--I feel self-conscious about my legs and i wish they were more fit; my stomach could use some work
2. Feel better--I won't feel out of breath all the time
3. More confident in the bed-room(the whole leg thing), and I think it'll help our relationship if I didn't think about "What do I look like right now...?"
4. Be happier--I thrive on self-fat jokes, and I think deep down it hurts my own feelings to realize that I am so fat that I have to make those jokes..
5. Because I am worth being (more)beautiful everywhere(I am already beautiful--now I am going for gorgeous!!)

1. Health - I have type 2 diabetes...Losing weight is a must for me.
2. Self Esteem - Sometimes, I'm self-conscious about my weight, and I hate that feeling.
3. Appearance -I want to fit nicely in jeans...I don't feel comfortable wearing them now.
4. Self confidence (self-explanatory)
5. I want to encourage my son to lose weight too. I want to set a good example for him.
I'm afraid I
2. Health- My family has a history of high blood pressure and serious heart problems. I'm petrified of developing diabetes or having a heart attack.
3. To be able to do all the things I used to do- walking, dancing and not feeling like an elephant, sitting comfortably (well, more comfortably) on airplane seats and in tiny booths.
4. I have some nice clothes I'd like to wear again; they're in the closet and in my drawers, I just can't get rid of them.
5. Stop worrying about what other people think of me for being overweight.
