I know it was last weeks challenge... but here are my 10 reasons for wanting to lose weight:
1. So that I can fit into all my old clothes
2. So that I can feel confident
3. So that I can feel proud - and make my DH proud of me too
4. So that I look good in photos.
5. So that I will have plenty of energy to run around with my kids
6. So that I will grow old to see my kids grow up (and hopefully have grandkids!)
7. So I can finally say "no" to delicious foods that are presented to me
8. So that I do not have to buy "tent tops". I would love to have a fitted white shirt that doesn't gape at the boobs
9. So that my kids will not be embarrassed of me when they eventually go to school
10. So that I can achieve what I have been trying to do for as long as I can remember - get to goal weight
Fi - $75 may be expensive - but it will make you more inspired to do it. Good on you for even thinking about it. Shazz - a 5km daily walk is great! Hope the weather clears up so you can get into it. Aurora - good on you for "finding" that time. I've got a million things that need to be done - but I've realised that I have to "find" at least 1/2 an hour a day - for ME. This is important. Lucy - you should consider hiring a bike or treadmill. Then if you don't use it regularly - it's not going to be lying around collecting dust. But if you do use it regularly - you can then invest in a good one - maybe a birthday or Xmas present. Kaz - great that you've got someone to do the C25K with you. It's so much easier when you are accountable to someone else. Mitch - if you've got some equipment... why not set yourself a mini goal. Say 10 minutes a day on one/both peices of equipment. 10 mins doesn't sound a lot - but that's more then an hours extra exercise a week. And if you did 15 minutes - that would be 1.5 hours! Ray - I hear ya about the SAHD. Although, I want to be rich enough that neither of us have to work! Veronica - congrats on the 1kg. 2kg by the 3rd Feb is do-able. But you have to be "good". Step up your exercise and watch what you eat. You'll be looking mighty fine for your birthday!
