-Enjoying your birthdays, because in an uncertain world you never know which one will be your last.

-Being a generally decent human being and making an effort to be considerate to the people around you.

-Getting involved with you community and the world around you by helping the less fortunate.

-Eating the meal that your mom/SO/friend slaved for hours in the kitchen over.

-Having enough energy to perform basic daily tasks without hurting yourself.

    Well understood. There's a world outside weight loss and fitness, called "Real life".

    I like to do all those things and still be fit and thin.

    Being skinny doesn't help you have better sex.
    Being fit enough to get into all kinds of crazy positions does.
    Bounce bounce.

    Being skinny? A lot of things.
    Being healthy? Not a lot of things.

    You can have bacon. Bacon isn't mean, it's God's gift. And God loves everyone, including vegans.

    Well understood. There's a world outside weight loss and fitness, called "Real life".

    So, when I'm at the gym or cooking something healthy, that's not real life?

    OP - love all your points! Fortunately, one does not preclude the other.

    I've never aspired to be skinny. I LOVE my curves and always wanted to be just..........fit. Healthy on the inside. Glowing skin and healthy eyes and nails. Stamina and a clean blood and healthy lungs.
