To me...one of the best things about losing weight is the confidence you feel as you get dressed or as you walk pass a mirror or just walk down the street. No more tugging at your clothes or wondering who's looking at you in disgust... :blushing:

What has been the best thing about losing weight to you?

    first of all WAY TO FRICKING GO ON LOSING 50LBS! wow!

    and i agree 100% about the confidence being the best thing u can get from losing weight. feeling great when u look in the mirros, feeling great when u look at pictures, wanting to take pictures instead of hiding from the camera's at party's and events lol.

    my ultimate goal is to feel good in my bathing suit. doesnt have to be a bikini, i'll settle for a tankini but I want to feel confident enough to not need any cover ups!

    Thanks Nola! It hasn't been the easiest thing to do by far, but it has certainly been the absolute best thing I have ever done for myself. Before I lost weight the only picture I had of myself was my wedding day picture 12 years ago - now you can't keep me away from the camera lol It's so possible to lose weight if you stay focused. One of the things that helped me was knowledge - I learned how to eat and how my body processes the foods I eat, which made me want to eat the right things. I'll be celebrating my 30th bday in Miami in November and for the first time since I was 17 I'll be in a tankini!!! How cool is that?!
