Motivation
In this article the writer says, "You probably have lots of reasons for wanting to lose weight. Not all, however, may be good ones."
"To ensure success, you need to develop the will to improve your life..."
What is the will to improve my life?
I often ask myself that wondering what will be the catalyst that will finally push me to lose weight. There are days I look in the mirror and wonder, "what the hell happened?" There are other times like after a recent Christmas party when I saw the group pictures...OMG I'm twice as big as my mini-skinny co-workers. I thought I was going to die I looked enormous next to them.
In the need for that motivation I took the advice of the writer of the above article and wrote my reasons to slim down.
*I want to be healthier- I have hbp and come from a long line of heart attack and cancer victims.
*I want to look better- fat isn't always beautiful.
*I want to have more energy
*I want to walk into a regular store and find clothes that fit
*I want to wear clothes I like instead of clothes just because they're in my size
*I don't want to be embarrassed to be seen or photographed.
Just for a second I did think about putting "be happy", but we all know that getting thin won't make the problems go way and won't make me happy, OTOH it would take away some of the crap that helps to make me unhappy...like the ugly work pants I wear just because they fit.
What is your motivation?
