    Honestly op that is why you need to completely be doing it for yourself.

    If you are doing it for others, you give them complete control.

    Let's say you lose the weight and feel like you look perfect. If that person cheats on you or calls you fat, you will start questioning yourself, wanting to lose more weight etc.

    Confidence and self love attracts attention, not being slender.

    I've seen gorgeous women with perfect bodies walk in the street with their head down, bags in their eyes, a horrible expression on their face and their shoulders slumped. They look very unattractive

    You want to attract the right partner in your life, for your life. So take the time out to fall in love with yourself and make sure you are getting healthy for the right reasons to prevent problems in the future.

    I think we all are,just a little.... it Its always nice to have our spouses, or gf/bf's or someone else if youre single, think you are good looking and attractive. :flowerforyou:

    I am doing this for my future child. My gynecologist was worried about my weight and wanted me to lose some so I will be at a healthy weight during pregnancy and told me "If you don't have motivation make your future baby your motivation." I walk every day on the trail rain or shine after that appointment :happy:

    Part of the reason I did it was because I didn't want to be one of those fat and frumpy house wives. For as hard as my husband works so that I can stay home with the kids I should work just as hard on keeping up on myself for him. He would love me either way, and has, but I feel he deserves to have a fit wife :)

    Me.

    I wanna be that girl everyone's eye turn to. I want guys to lust over me and girls to be jealous of me.

    Yeah, it's unlikely but whatever, lol. :P

    Hey FuneralDiner, I'm not sure that you're not pretty close to achieving that already... just sayin'. =D

    I'm doing it to catch my own eye! Does that make sense?

    IT makes sense for me, I want to feel good and show it because that's what really catches people's eye, confidence. When you look like you own it people get a positive vibe from you and want to know you, id like to catch my own eye before anyone else's :happy:

    ^^^^Truth


    I want to be able to go to school and not just be "The old guy" even just a look here and there......But that isn't enough to keep me working at it each day. I work at this because it makes me feel better.

    I've been in shape and out of shape, and know how 'I' feel in shape....It's better. By a bunch.

    I am doing this because I was tired of not fitting into my clothes, being depressed because of it, not feeling like myself. In the end, I am getting waaaaaaaaaaay more attention than I prefer these days.men in general can really be a-holes.
    But it is great that I am wearing all the clothes in my closet, knowing that I can be around, healthy for my kids, husband, grandkids someday maybe.
    And there are a few people that push me to work even harder to get to goal so I can say, eff you! I am way hotter than you!

    I'm doing it mainly because I want to be healthy and performed better on the soccer pitch. My girlfriend loves me either way..

    BUT BUT BUT!

    It's much easier for our relationship these days. I no longer have to beg her for ... All I have to do is pretend that I forget to wear my sweatshirt when I go to bed.... I guess it could be one of my no scale victory!
