The Why's

I just need to get this written out and documented...

The reasons behind my desire to lose weight... Not that I hope or plan to find it ever again!

In no particular order

1. I want to be able to wear my wedding band and engagement ring together on the same finger, the way they are supposed to be... Right now I'm just wearing my wedding band, I do not want to get them re-sized. Again.
2. I want to keep my blood sugar in check. I was diagnosed with Type 1.5 diabetes (LADA) two years ago after living with the misdiagnosis of Type 2 diabetes for nearly a year. Eating low carbohydrates has been the only way I have been able to keep my blood sugar from spiking. I feel like I am also having some insulin resistance. I need to give myself more insulin 💉 at each meal and raise my basal. Lowering my carbohydrate intake makes me be more sensitive to insulin and need less over all and that will help with weight loss.
3. I want to wear cute clothes! I have loved vintage clothes for 30+ years and although some ladies can rock the look being at a heavier weight, I just don't... I don't have the out going personality where I would feel comfortable. 
4. Knitting projects won't take up as much yarn and will likely take less time to knit! 
5. I want to look good naked! No explanation needed here!
6. I want to have the energy to be the wife and mother my family needs and deserves. I want to feel like getting up and cleaning the house, running errands, helping out at school, playing with my kids and having the energy to keep up with my hubby 💓.
7. I don't want to be 200 lbs, I am 5'2" and should be around 115-130 lbs.
8. I want to clear up my skin and have good hair. I'm 38, I still get the occasional period blemish but I have blackheads in my T-zone and a bit of rosacea on my face. My hair is limp and becomes greasy fairly quickly. My sister jokes with me about it... "Why is your hair still wet?" LOL! it is bad...

I'm sure there are more and I'll update this when I figure them out!
