I have lost about 50 lbs so far but I am far from skinny. I feel a lot better about myself so I think that's why... sometimes in my dreams now I picture myself as some skinny little thing. Like I feel hot in my dream.... Then I wake up and snap back into reality, haha. Do you guys have dreams where you are maybe a lot closer to GW and lookin hot more often now?!

    That's a good one. I have never noticed before. I wonder if I think about looking at myself when I fall asleep or when I wake up as to what I look like. Now I am curious. I used to be 333 now I am 202 but I still see the 333 when I am awake. Maybe in my dreams I will be fit and skinny. I can only dream eh...

    I haven't lost nearly as much, but even just after starting to eat a little better I have definitely had dreams where I was fit and confident. I think it's our minds' interpretation of how we feel after making changes to improve ourselves, and if we keep it up our realities will match our dreams. Or at least I hope they will. :)

    Cindy that is so awesome!! You have so much to be proud of, dream away girl! Rebecca, I definitely agree it has a lot to do with how we feel about our selves. I would say half the time I feel pretty confident but still have my moments :)We will get there someday!

    yes, i did. in fact, whenever i dreamed, I was always @ a healthy weight (imo) long before I even began this whole weight loss/healthy lifestyle. :)
