what is your reason

Today I have tried to think about the What and Why. Why am I over weight? Why do I want to lose 30 pounds. What it will change when I am successful at this last 30 pounds.
First off. Why am I over weight. Many professionals believe there is a real reason, something we have not "dealt with" that makes us overweight. I am constantly trying to find that out. If you can figure out WHY, maybe, just maybe, we will never go there again.
Why do I want to lose this weight, seems a much easier question to answer, and that answer has changed over the years and months. I truly want to be healthy, to enjoy the rest of my life. I have wasted way too much time being morbidly obese, I have some fun living to still do!
As to the question, What will it change? I can only guess. As I mentioned I want to be healthy, but if I am being honest here, I LOVE looking GOOD. I love when I walk in a room people notice me. It is such a crazy thing. The bigger I was the more invisible I became. People tend to take me more seriously now, than when I was morbidly obese.
So there you have it. I want to lose this last 30 pounds so I can feel and look good, for a lot longer. I still don't have a good handle on WHY I got so big, but I will keep working on that one, and The things that will change most of all when I succeed Will be ME! My attitude my desire to help others, and I will have the energy to do so.
