Weight loss changes so much in a person. What are some things you never thought you'd say?
Mine are:
"I love the gym." (I used to be a total couch potato before this journey!)
"Salad is one of my favorite foods." (I used to HATE salad, now I love it.)

'I should exercise before I (insert stationary entertainment here)"
Used to do everything I could to avoid exercising, now I hate a morning when I don't do at least a small workout. the change in energy level for the rest of my day is noticeable!

I love running
I don't need that donut
I'd rather chew my calories (instead of drinking soda)
I better get walking to burn this off1 -
I don’t feel well and it’s so humid outside but I want to get my walking in (last evening:)).
I’m not really hungry so I’m not having a snack right now.
How can I work more steps into this situation.3 -
"I need to buy more (weight) plates"
I never did much of any strength training and when I bought my first barbell/plates combo (300lbs) I remember saying to my wife that "I'd never need to buy more". One year later I was out-squatting that 300lbs so I bought another set so I'd have a second bar for supersets (was also more cost-effective than buying new plates a la carte). Now I'm to the point I could use a few more plates so I can superset Squats and Deadlifts at more than 300lbs/ and probably should upgrade the bars to be rated for a higher weight. Certainly have exceeded expectations for my strength capabilities in 3+ years of lifting.6 -

I'll eat the other half of my piece of cheesecake tomorrow.
I said that for so long when losing, that now, 10years later, the whole slice really is overpowering. I'm shocked, so is my family.
Cheers, h.11 -
“This shirt looks much better tucked in.”
I realized that at 5 p.m., after a full day of being unhappy about my boring outfit.7 -
Can we please, please go on a hike this weekend?
As a teenager, I hated hikes. always found them boring as hell. Now I'm glad to have some peace and quiet for a few hours.5 -
