Just wanted to ask everyone now that you have dropped some pounds and becoming more fit how good does it feel.

This may be a little sallow on my part but for me I like lifting weights and now when i workout in the gym I get the head nod from the bodybuilders and others that are in great shape it's likke being in the club that no one talks about, the other day a guy asked me to spot him on the bench press he was putting up 6 plates, So besides the fact that I just feel better, others I don't know must think I look in shape.

so what's your story how good does it feel for you

    feel great! love being able to play in the park with my daughter without getting too short of breath. love that im healthier and that i can make good food choices and enjoy treats too

    Love being able to keep up in my zumba class without being short of breath. even got to lead one of the songs in the class whilst my instructor was tending to her ankle! woop woop!

    also like being able to pick up clothes in a size 8/10 ( US 4/6) and THEY FIT! and this ones for the ladies- no one gives me the body check anymore! the 'how can you let yourself get that big look' lol

    I have been very overweight/obese for a decade. I went through severe depression after my second child was born and just had a lot of life's trials pick on me, so to speak. I was alive, but not living.

    Now, after 68 lbs gone, I feel ALIVE! I also notice men noticing me and flirting. My husband isn't as keen on that aspect of it, lol! But, it makes me feel great.
