I love this thread! It helps to just go over the reasons when you feel a bit low!
my reasons!
to be able to shop wherever I want!
to walk past my ex and his jaw hit the floor when he realises that I am finally back to being the "me" I was ten years ago when I met him before I got stuck in a miserable, horrible waste of time relationship that became so difficult to get out of! and know that he lost something special!

Live reading this thread when im feeling weak!
To be a beautiful bride
To be the best version of me
For my fiance to look at me when he comes home from working away and be proud
To fit into them size ten jeans!
To stop feeling so sluggish
To wear heels without my weight making it ridiculosly painful!

Well ive finally got around to sharing my reasons that i not only want but need to lose weight with you all sorry if i repeat any that has already been written on here ...
- To actually go out to family meals and special occasions and stop making excuses just because im embarrassed of my size.
- To prove to everyone that i can actually be the slim person i know i am inside.
- To make my other half really proud of the person he's with.
- To not feel embarrassed if i see any of my other half's friends.
- To go and visit my other half's family more, as i don't very often now due to my size.
- To stop covering up in baggy tops and leggings!
- To not feel embarrassed and the odd one out when im with my sisters, as there both size 10!
- To be able to walk for more than 5 minutes and not be sweating and puffed out.
- To be able to shop in river island and republic and know that they will have my size.
- To look forward to the summer instead of dreading it due to being so fat.
- To visit family members i haven't seen for a while before it's too late.
- To just get dressed in the first thing i see and know it will look good!
- To get in and out the car without being so flipping paranoid by how much it moves!
- To get on and off a bus without worrying what people are thinking.
- To go to a theme park and know 100% that i will have no problem fitting in ANY of the rides.
- To be able to go to a restaurant or a cafe and not get paranoid about people looking at what im eating.
- To not have flipping back fat, i hate it!!
- To STOP the stretch marks, i already have loads due to pregnancy and i don't want any more.
- To actually have my photo taken with my daughter before she grows up as right now i only have 2 of us together and she's 2 year and 3 months old!
- To be able to wear dresses/shorts/skirts in summer and know i look good and not like im 40 weeks pregnant.
- To weigh less than my other half, he's nearly 12 stone!
- To be able to sit on his lap and for him to pick me up again without worrying im going to hurt him.
- To go back to me being on top during sex without thinking ''can he breath''.
and the very very very main one
- TO KNOW MY LITTLE GIRL WILL NOT GROW UP WITHOUT HER MUMMY - scares me more than i have ever been when i think about it.
Ive also read alot of stuff on different websites that says with my weight and height , im putting myself at a serious risk of stroke, high blood pressure, heart problems and even death! - im 20 years old with a 2 year old daughter, i shouldn't be worrying about dying or having a stroke at my age, i should be concentrating on raising my little girl and giving her the best life she can possibly have. xx
