After a good workout I always feel sexiest, but other than working out, when i get all dolled up and go out with the girls i feel like god's gift to man! Lol

    A new haircut always gives me a huge boost of self-esteem.

    You're right though, a good workout is right up there on the list!

    Going out dancing in a really fun new pair of shoes and jeans! I may not look like a million bucks (my dancing…not the greatest :blushing: ) but I'm having fun and feel great!

    Ooo fresh haircut is very uplifting! Even an eyebrow wax can make me feel sexy.

    After a workout and a hot shower, then getting fixed up to go out I still have that warmth and glow from the workout and feel awesome! I think confidence is more a decision than anything... a mindset and attitude that I really like who I am and that doesn't depend on anyone else. Then I'm happy and playful and flirty and just love life. I think it's that general vitality and zest for living that is attractive and creates a natural sense of confidence.

    I agree with the first post. Nothing feels better than a fantastic work out and then putting on jeans you were not able to fit into last week now are perfect :)

    Confidence... Some ideas that come to mind:

    (1) Rollerblading around town in a pair of tiny shorts. Show off my athleticism, long legs & bad *kitten* ability to workout in the hot sun!
    (2) Getting all dolled up for a night out!
    (3) Doing something that demonstrates my intelligence (Could be like talking about a certain topic, me knowing the answer to someone's question or being able to help/be useful).

    I feel pretty good after showering and shaving and putting on nice clothes. And a compliment from a girl I like can make me soar.

    A good work out or tennis match, for sure, but lately I have REALLY been feeling it with tire flips. Love mixing that in with interval runs. No clue why I feel so accomplished with these.

    A good workout and having a good hair day. :) It's also a HUGE boost when my hubby comes home and notices a difference either in my face or whatever with my weight loss. :D

    May sound superficial but getting all glamorous for a night out! Big hair, smokey eyes, and a nice pair of heels! :)

    Right now, comparing my "before" picture to my most recent "after" picture makes me feel awesome. So a lot of the time I check that out after looking in the mirror and realizing how far I still have left to go.
