For those of you who have lost a lot of weight, or just care to respond about your journey in losing weight, has your personality changed in any way? These could be good or bad changes. I've always been interested in this topic!

    I've always been a positive person for the most part............sarcastic and saucy as hell sometimes yes..........but usually positive. Since losing about 30 lbs over the past year I would say I'm not only still positive but a much happier person and more confident in myself:) I think people notice you a little more when you're positive, happy, and confident......

    I have multiple personalities so it wouldn't matter if I lost the weight or not. Some of my personalities are good and some are bad.

    I'm a lot harder on myself now. I don't ever remember being this way before I gained the pregnancy weight. I hate that I'm constantly looking in the mirror and weighing myself. It wears me out.

    Definitely personality changes.. I feel more - ME. I'm much more positive, outgoing (possibly excessively so now), open, firtatious and confident. I'm a little scared about what I'll be like when I've lost another 70 lbs or so..!

    Besides being more conscious about my health i dont think i've changed much...some would say flirting but i was a big flirt even as a big(ger) man

    Maybe a little bit....
    I feel more like myself and more confident. I've always been pretty positive and upbeat, so I think my changes have been more with my over all attitude about myself....not just want I want other to think. Although I may have seemed super happy before, now I think I am.

    Good Question!

    Here are the ways I have changededed, let me count them:

    1. I learned HOW to love myself, instead of just saying I love myself.
    2. I am my own champion defender
    3. I believe that I can do anything, and then I do it, to prove it and see what happens after
    4. I understand the difference between tolerance and enabling
    5. I do not balk and hide from difficult tasks
    6. I give in to my libido
    7. I toot my own horn
    8. I understand that being proud of your successes does not void modesty or humility
    9. I motivate myself and look inward instead of hoarding it from outside sources and doing nothing with it
    10. Im quicker to judge because I understand better what is healthy and what isnt
    11. Im choosier about who I spend my time with
    12. I throw myself into activities and events so i can fully experience them, instead of being a hanger-backer
    13. Im quicker to smile at someone or offer them help
    14. I jump into social situations feet first, even if i have to mentally prepare myself first
    15. I like being naked and I like when you watch me.
    16. I feel beautiful and that radiates through my personality
    17. Im more likely to tell you the truth than spare your feelings
    18. If I feel like you arent listening to me, i hang back and wait until you do, instead of just letting it go
    19. I insist on respect that Ive earned
    20. I feel dignified and that flavors my interactions with people.
    21. I dont waste my time on people who indulge in excuses and laziness.
    22. because it honestly disgusts me now, and I would apologize but it would not be authentic or genuine.
    23. My standards for myself continually grow and although Im hard on myself, im also proud of myself.

    I completely agree with everything yoovie said. It's been a big change for me. I think that I thought that I was confident before but now I *know* that I am. Things (even silly, day to day things) are just more fun now. Not everything is a chore. I interact with people better and more willingly and am far more open to a lot of experiences. I guess that I put myself out there a lot more.

    (And to be 150%, it's made me into a bit of a slut. My husband is a happy man.)

    I am more in touch with my feelings and physical being. I've really started paying attention to my body and my mind. That's probably what ended up saving my marriage. I am more able to express myself and my feelings.
