I know this phrase comes from the Special K commercial but I wanted to ask what would you gain when you lose?

I will gain self-confidence. I am tired of hiding my body with layers of clothing. Plus I wear all black.. I would like to wear some color.

What about you?

    I'm already starting to gain back a bunch of perfectly good clothes that I haven't worn in 5-6 years. I felt stupid for keeping them around all this time taking up space. Now I feel stupid for ever having grown out of them, and glad to have them back.

    more of my wardrobe. going shopping in my own closet has always been one of my favorite things because i hoard clothes. there's a pair of electric blue, low-rise skinny jeans that i haven't been able to wear in almost 5 years.

    i'll gain the ability to stop cringing when i see myself in the mirror.

    I love this question and it is a great motivator. Getting so heavy has made me lose my energy and self confidence. It's made my joints ache and limited my activity. When heavy I get more overheated in the summer which has made it harder to go to outdoor art shows and other outdoors events. Here is what I will gain: more energy, more years of life, the ability to travel, the opportunity to paint plein air with other plein air painters in the mountains and all over the country.
