Reasons I Want to Lose

In order to stay motivated on this journey I thought of all the reasons I want to lose weight and cut the fluff. This list may change over time; however it will hold me accountable to the fact that I have many reasons why I want to drop the pounds. There is really no excuse that trumps anything on my list.
