I Need To Lose Weight . . .

 

1. To be able to run and jump without worrying about hurting myself.
2. To be able to go into any store, and buy the clothes I like, not just the ones that fit.
3. Because I want to wear underwear that looks cute and dainty, not something industrial.
4. So no one ever calls me ‘a big girl’ again.
5. So I’m not embarrassed to have my picture taken.
6. So I can walk in heels without fear.
7. So I can look in a full-length mirror with pride, instead of despair.
8. So I can get on with my life!!!
9. So my doctor will never say, ‘you really need to lose some weight’ to me ever again, but instead says nothing more than ‘see you next year.’
10. So people in the supermarket don’t look in my cart when they think I’m not looking, to see what a ‘fat person’ eats.
11. So I can say my weight out loud with pride.
12. So I can say to other people who are overweight, ‘hey, I was there once too,’ and maybe help them to get where they want to be.
13. So I don’t wonder if people are saying, ‘what is HE doing with HER?’ (My other half is skinny and can eat anything).
14. So I never have to look at someone else with envy again, thinking ‘Wow, I wish I was that thin.'
