My Reasons for Losing Weight

For My Health

To have better skin

So I don’t sweat profusely

So I can walk up a flight of stairs and not feel out of breath

So my back won’t hurt

So my knee won’t hurt 

So my doctor will never say, “you really need to lose some weight” to me ever again

So I don’t have to worry about arthritis or other illnesses that accompany obesity

For Vanity

To feel better about myself

To look good in tight clothes

To be able to wear shorts in the summer

To be able to go into any store, and buy the clothes I like, not just the ones that fit

To not feel awkward about going clothes shopping or shoe shopping

To be able to order clothes from a catalogue without worrying if they will fit

To be able to wear something that doesn’t say PLUS on it

So my pants won’t wear out between my legs while the rest of them are still in good shape

So I can look in the mirror from the neck down and like what I see

So I can wear tight jeans

I want to wear underwear that looks sexy

So I can show off my legs

So I can go into public and not feel like people are judging me

So I can wear tops without worrying about the dents from my bra showing trough

So that my boobs stick out more than my stomach – not the other way around

For a Better Quality of Life

To be able to use a public toilets comfortably

I want to be able to read the scale by just looking down, straight down

So I don’t get those indents on my thighs from the arms of the chair I’m sitting in

So I can cross my legs

So I can get up from the floor in one smooth move and not a grab and hold on to something move

So I can sit on a bar stool and I’m actually sitting ON it, not on it and around it too

So a regular towel goes all the way around me 

So my socks pull all the way up

So I can hug my knees to my chest again, and it’s comfortable

So I can fit into the cinema/stadium/airplane seats comfortably

So I can bend over comfortably to tie my shoes

For My Self-esteem

So I can go swimming without being self-conscious

So I don’t worry about chairs breaking

So I don’t have to ask for the additional seat belt on an airplane

So I can dance without being self-conscious

So I can go on rides at amusement parks again and not have to experience the embarrassment of having to get off because I don’t fit

So I don’t have to worry about the maximum weight before I using things

So I don’t feel awkward when people start talking about losing weight

So no one can ever call me “a big girl” ever again

So I’m not embarrassed to have my picture taken

So I can say my weight out loud

So furniture doesn’t groan when I sit on it, or wear out long before it should because I’m too heavy

So, this is from about a week ago, but I wanted to post it any way.

I questioned it because of the way I felt I looked in the photo.. but whatever.

Okay, so my back has been better. I have picked up squats again.. and am taking it slow.

It’s hard for me to start back over. I was able to do about 200 easy before. This is 125. Today I did 135 3x8 reps with a pause. I then did amreps at 16. I thought I could push more, but the back didn’t feel right, so I tapped out. Mike was pushing me the whole way. Best PT ever.

Also, today he said I was his hero. Not sure if he was joking or serious, but It felt good. Obviously, I’m doing this all for me, but I’ve always been someone who likes to make other proud. It pushes me to do better. I will keep doing better. Not always perfect, but better than before.

** basically a fire hydrant leg lift but with your leg extended 

As always, weight and reps are my own so modify if needed. I design all of my workouts to be about an hour long. I encourage you to add in a day of cardio (I like spin class or going for a run) and then I also like to add another day where I take a group exercise class (I like barre). Make sure to rest at least one day a week, your muscles need time to recover.
