This is my very first "Thursday Thirteen". Since I've now lost Thirteen pounds, I thought it only appropriate to list my top 13 reasons to lose weight. Here they are...
- To feel better about myself.
- To be healthier.
- To not be afraid to go to the doctor, because they'll make me get on the scale.
- So I don't have to worry about other people's lawn chairs breaking when I sit on them.
- To NOT get "those looks" when eating at restaurant, even when I'm making wise choices and taking only ONE trip to the buffet.
- So I can cut up my "Catherines" credit card and wear clothes that don't say "PLUS size".
- So I don't have to hide behind someone or something when posing for a picture.
- So my doctor will never again have to say, "You really need to lose some weight", but just says, see you again next year.
- So a regular bath towel goes all the way around me.
- So my grandchildren will never remember me as being fat.
- So my 11yo daughter is never again embarrassed for her friends to meet her fat mom.
- To be able to get up off the floor or out of my couch without making a loud groaning sound.
- So I don't think evil thoughts whenever I see a skinny woman.
