    Oooh can I join in?

    One of my reasons for losing weight is
    An operation,
    Feeling more confident
    So I can ride (horses) again
    So I can wear clothes that are modern and fun, not frumpy and cover everything up
    So I can sit comfortably on the ickle chairs in class
    So I can get down to a healthy BMI (boring!)
    So I feel confident when I take my clothes off (sorry, bit rude, but it's true)

    we can also start a list for reasons NOT to lose weight and mine would have to be,
    Cant afford new clothes
    Easy to stay where I am!!
    Too lazy to cook 'proper' food

    people think I'm bubbly and happy, so what's the problem?
    i lurve chocolate and all things bad for me
    My DH loves my cuddly bits (two cuddly bits in particular!)
    I've got a man who loves how I look anyway

    God I'm thick - didn't realise you were all adding to the same list and thought everyone was poorly and needed operations... will think of some to add.
