What is your "Petty" Reason to Lose Weight?

For the most part everyone is slightly asymmetrical from the left to right side– for me, the difference is a bit more pronounced as I’m a quarter/half inch shorter on my right side than my left. I have two different shoe sizes, my right leg is shorter so I strain my left side muscles more, I lean slightly to the left...and the left is the home of The Thing.

I’m a pear shape with a classically large German hausfrau butt and hips. I have saddlebags, but the one on the right side of my body curves with my hip into my thigh. The one on the left? Imagine a sugar-cone ice cream. My thigh goes up in pretty much a straight line and then just jams into this unpleasant “scoop” that juts out like a roadside billboard.

I’m actually quite confident with my body but lord I hate The Thing. One saving grace is that when I start losing weight it visibly shrinks– I only weigh myself once a month but I can keep track based on its status. It’s kinda my adipose barometer.

I've got a few petty reasons underneath the overall "I just want to be healthy and live longer". I am getting married next year in such a beautiful place. I want to be the hot wife. Especially because my fiance's ex has harassed me online. At least I won't be ugly inside or out. Also I have a couple ex's that I know would absolutely regret the way they treated me after I glow up.

My husbands mom isn’t in the picture for a lot of reasons.. but my petty point to lose weight is because I want to show the *kitten* that my weight isn’t an excuse for her to use to hate our marriage.

I have many reasons but here are my fun petty ones:
1. To do a victory dance in front of my brother who loves to taunt, tease, and sabotage me by sending me cookies from Brown Butter company for this sole purpose at his confession.
2. Get admiring looks, delightful compliments, and a tasteful attraction attention not slobbering lust comments.

Just like being shredded....its an unreal feeling.

No worries, I'm not offended just smirking at the humor. I like the "eye" and up and down twice over look just not the obscene gestures that involve exposing tongue and hand particularly between the fingers. No, I will not demonstrate. Today I got a delightful compliment from a colleague, she greeted me, "Hey Skinny!" With a friendly look of admiration and a bit of jealousy.
