petty reason...to cheap to buy new clothes

Don't do this. A skinny woman I know wears cheap clothes and they look just like that- cheap!

I know that when you're skinny you can wear cheap clothes and they will still look good on you versus being heavier and needing a more expensive taloring, but you're worth more than that! When you lose the weight, buy some hot-looking, well made clothes!

My petty reason is I want my husband to be like, "see this little hottie, she's mine" I sent him to be proud to have me on his arm. Idk if that's petty really, but it's close

I had to think about this, because my "petty" reason isn't really a reason--just a benefit from losing weight. I won't be the "fat American" when I travel anymore. That will be nice. I've always been the fatest person around when traveling overseas--and while that didn't stop me from traveling, it did both me a bit.

There was one time I wasn't the fatest--my sister was. But she's slimmed down so I gotta do my bit, because we plan to travel together again. I love my sis and am proud of how she's taken care of herself.

I don't have a petty reason. It took true grit to get here. To those who deem what we are doing as less than or petty or vain or useless or just wandering aimlessly in the wilderness - they haven't been through the hail and back it takes to make this happen. No one has to live in our body. It's the one thing that belongs to us and there's nothing petty about our overall health and well being. I just read all of your posts. I wouldn't consider them a good thing, I consider them a great, fantastic wondrous, terrific thing and everything a person could ask from themselves...when it comes to taking care of themselves and listening to your bodies and using good sense. You inspire me.

Not petty but I want to be a 6 instead of a 5. Also I am so ****ing tired of dieting. It's draining.

I just want to say this is the best thread ever, I've never felt so motivated in my life it's like now I want to do it for my own petty reason, AND for all of yours too!! I love you guys

I didn’t want to be the fattest person at work, now I’m not

My petty reason is that I want to look great for my grad school graduation.

I wanna be the best Trophy Wife I can be! lol

The hot new guy in my life Who's vegan and stick freaking thin!

I have a few vain reasons for wanting to lose weight... I want to go anywhere with confidence. Plus it helps that I could wear anything and look good, that isn’t possible in my current state. And lastly, I’m the big girl in my family. I’m the tallest and the biggest, so I always get snide remarks and snotty looks. I want to be the one giving the looks just once!

I'm seeing a lot of reasons here... but most of them aren't petty.

Instead, it just sounds like folks looking for better health and acceptance of self.

respect y'all

I refuse to be over-weight like most people I know... lol
