Thinking about WHY I want to loose weight

I came up with a long list. Add your list if you would like.

* To be able to get on a plane and not worry about weather or not I’ll have to get a seatbelt extender

* To not worry if I will fit on a roller coaster (although I’ve always said I didn’t like them to hide the fact I may not fit)

* To be invited to supper with your husbands new friends/new coworkers and not worry about what they will think of his “fat” wife

* To undress in front of my husband and not be embarrassed

* To put on a swimsuit and not look like a whale

* To ride on my husbands motorcycle and feel good about it (not feel like I am too heavy for him to hold up the bike)

* To wear tanktops

* To have cute legs again

* To possibly wear a bikini

* To take sexy pictures to send to my husband while he’s deployed

* To be able to run with my husband

* To play ball with my daughter for more than 5 minutes without getting worn out

* To be able to buy a matching dress for me and my daughter (never seen a plus size dress to match a kids dress)

* To believe my husband when he tells me I’m beautiful

* To be able to be on top without getting worn out when making love to my husband

* To wear sexy bras and panties and look good in them

* To sit on my husbands lap and not worry that I am hurting him

* To have my husband be able to pick me up if he wants

* To be able to wear one of my husbands tshirts to bed and it be too big

* To not be the “fat mom” anymore

* To go on vacation and actually have a good time and not worry about my weight the entire time

* To not have to ask for an extra large wheelchair if I have to be in the hospital again

* To be able to get pregnant easily

* To be the smallest female in MY family

* To go to Disney and not be worn out the first hour I’m there

* To have a good self esteem for once in my life
