My newest petty motivation: I asked my husband if I looked OK in the bikini I just bought, and not too jiggly. He responded with "what does it matter, it's s only us there". I want a: wow, you look great!
I just want to be hot honestly. I mean, yeah the health aspect of losing weight is cool too but I've never been hot hahaha
Agreed. I'd also like to be hot. I get told that I'm cute/beautiful all the time and my husband tells me I'm hot, but I'd like to look at myself every single day and think "damn, you're hot" instead of just some days.
To get back at my ex husband who said that "he didn't like fat women". Well, guess who isn't fat any more????? My profile picture is from a photo shoot I did last year to reward my self for getting to my goal weight. I lost 35kg and have been maintaining +/- 1-2kg since July last year. I am 62 and have not been this weight since before I had my first child back in 1983.

You look amazing, good for you!
Thank you. I feel the best I have felt for many years and along with the weight lost a lot of health issues as well.
I was always the "Skinny" One when I started to gain weight I was getting comments about it from my mom who is 350+ I did gain 60 pounds do to a medication I was on. I want to shut her up. Also I do not feel attractive no matter how much my husband tells me my weight doesn't matter, to me it does I lost my sexy feeling.

Sexy is an attitude, trust your husband.
Having said that my petty reason is to see what's going on down there when we bump uglies
I really let myself go after college and during a disastrous grad school experience. I want to get back in shape for myself and I'll be as selfish as I need to be. It's about taking my life back.
I want to look good naked, I want my husband to look at me like he does other women, not just love me because we have been together 14 years and have 2 children. I'm fed up of hearing "it's ok, you've had children, you have a mum body".
I want to be able to go into the shops and pick any outfit I like without worrying if a fat person can wear it.
I had a friend that was always thinner than me (but had bigger boobs the *kitten*. how is that fair?!) haha... when I lost 20 lbs and was rockin' my beach bod she very irritatedly said "eat a *kitten* hamburger." was like music to my ears lol
I can be soooooo petty about it. like.. I hate giving in to the weightloss/skinny chick monster and industry that media is selling us but secretly, I have this weakness. I want to be a bombshell, I want to be "in control" - still be able to eat fun things in moderation and be social , and have some drinks - but look and feel good and be thinner than my "always on a diet" but never seem to get anywhere friends!!! I want to "prove" its possible - AND... be "Right" as I keep trying to tell these friends that WOMEN SHOULD lift weights and WILL NOT get "bulky".
I want to put on a bathing suit and not stare at my thighs. I want to prove wrong everyone who buys into the idea of "leave your teens fill out your jeans' or that "as you get older your health declines" because it does NOT have to be like this!
GODDESSES NEVER AGE!!! ~ Dr. Christiane Northrup ... and they should still ride horses, compete, snowboard, and rock a bikini (me.)
Anyone looking to have venting sessions can also feel free to add me !
I just went back and was like.. why does this say KITTEN Everywhere. no swearing on MFP I guess?! oops. sorry lol
I want to weigh a good 20-30 pounds less than my husband again. I did it a few years ago, and I felt so amazing! Stress and emotional eating has slowly put me back almost to where I started again.
I'm also going through my version of a mid-life crisis, I guess you could say. I turned 46 this year, and I'm rocking purple hair, bold makeup, and ripped jeans. I need a hotter body to pull the look together to be fierce instead of dumpy and trying too hard.

I want to be confident in my own skin.
