Why do I want to lose weight? Good question.

Aside from the feeling of personal accomplishment and confidence, I have some other straightforward reasons that I will (hopefully) keep me going.

1. Shorts. Short shorts.



Look at those legs?!?! They are long and lean. My are stumpy and thick. But my squat front kicks are going to take care of that situation.


2. Honeymoon - Hawaii



I am SO excited that we get to go to Maui for our honeymoon. I have never been to Hawaii and don't know when I will make it back. I want to make sure that I have no regrets about this trip, that I am in all the pictures, and that I can enjoy all Maui has to offer without feeling self-conscious.


3. Bikini



I want to be able to throw on a bathing suit this summer (most importantly in Hawaii) and feel comfortable...without having to wear a full body cover up, without hiding behind over-sized bags or shirts or - I just want to feel good and look even better!


Well here is a nice little piece of motivation to leave you with America. This will be me (maybe not so skinny), but carefree and soaking in the summer sun.



Just chillin in my shortie shorts.
