Why are you motivated?
Posted on 05/05/08, 04:50 pm
I am motivated to make a change in my life. Why? Because none of my clothes fit. I am tired of hating summer because I can wear my sweats and hoodie. Also, my son is scared I am going to die because I am so fat. He says my heart can only take so much. How sad is that?

My daughter is also conserned with my weight. She also struggls with weight issues. Unlike my daughter though, I dont have unending energy. I hear about all these marathon runners in there 30s and 40s claiming they are in the best shape of their lives. I dont know about running marathons but I definity would like to be more athletic. -

You sound like me. My "fat clothes" are starting to get tight. I hate summer, too, but mostly because I am always SO freaking HOT--and I mean temperature, not looks. At my last physical, my Dr aid my cholesterol & sugar were up; while there is heart disease and diabetes in my fam. But most of all, this just isn't ME. I grew up in a dance studio, for pete's sake. I used to jump big horses over big fences. Now, I'm afraid if I sit on a horse I will hurt it, and forget about making any dance moves! It finally dawned on me that I've been on every diet there is, I know how to diet. I have GOT TO get my activity level waaaay up, if I want to see the fat leave town.
Welcome
