Me too! I've been working at it for a year and I'm very close. You'll look (and feel) great!!8 -

But seriously. I got older and fatter, but my taste in women stayed young and slim. People talk a lot about how you shouldn't lose weight for someone else, you should do it for yourself. But then when they say they wanna lose weight to be with more attractive partners that thats shallow, but thats a load of *kitten*. That is doing it for yourself. Imagine being sentenced to only having sex with people who you don't really find all that attractive for the rest of your life. When I say that I am losing weight to be able to hook up with more attractive women, rest assured, I am doing it for me, not them.
I love this. Made me laugh because it's so true! I like 'em younger and buff, so I've got to up my game to compete with the younger girls.7 -
I want to show all the people that I work with that are on expensive packaged diets that require you to buy special food and get "coaching" that you can lose weight (and more importantly keep it off) by good ole moderation and exercise.
Yes! The keeping it off is crucial! That's what separates the packaged dieters from the lifestyle changers.3 -
As a big "eff you" to my ex I want to look super hot in an upcoming trip I am taking to Hawaii (hopefully, it is still on!) All about the insta for me right now. Super petty!12

When I ride with my cycling friends, I’d like to not be the one who looks like a Sumo wrestler on a unicycle.11

My petty reason is to stick it to my inlaws - especially my 1 sil. Inlaws have not been too supportive of me in the past - even when I got my masters degree. I dont think of this often anymore. Exercise and eating healthy has just become an important part of my life to help reduce stress and so I dont think of the nasty inlaws. Oh I also have a pair of shorts I want to fit comfortably in!!🤣😊10

I don’t want to be the wife who ‘let herself go’
The mum who is an embarrassment because she’s fat.
I want to be able to just throw something on and feel good, not have to find a top that covers my stomach, trousers that don’t hurt too much after too long or think “ I’ll just wear leggings again” becuase they comfy15 -
My petty reason is for him to see me and regret giving up on me. Then I politely say "I'm sorry, I don't know who you are" and walk away.19

Also, I'm fat and crazy.
I can't do anything about the crazy but the fat I can.13 -
I was bullied in high school for being ugly/overweight. I like going to my hometown and the guys that used to bully me ask me out, turning them down is so satisfying! Also I like turning heads, I like walking down the street and seeing people stare at me knowing I look amazing15

The really nice size 10-12 wardrobe hanging in my closet. I want to wear these clothes again.10

Same! I have a wardrobe full of good clothes and I’m sick of wearing the 10 ugly things that I feel comfy in ( but look atrocious in!)8

I've got a couple.
Firstly I have a really lush tattoo on my arm and I want to wear tank tops sometimes to show it off - I'd also like to get one on my thigh and not feel like a blob.
Secondly I want people to think "omg she's really strong /fit"4 -
This must be one of the pettiest reasons, but it's a reason. I gained some weight in the quarantine, and it's unbelievable how much of a difference that made to my fitness level (combined with being relatively inactive for 2 months). Almost everything has opened up now, and I'm able to get back to my routine.
There is a fitness game I really really enjoy playing for the gameplay aspect, not just for the fitness aspect. I'm now unable to enjoy it as much because I'm less fit and heavier. I was planning to just maintain for now and lose the weight later, but it looks like I'm going to be getting back to dieting sooner than I planned. I really want to enjoy this game.17 -
I want to feel comfortable getting my picture taken—not just from the waist up.
I want to wear a slim fitting dress to an upcoming wedding and also to my husband’s high school reunion.
I want my 17 year old son and 20 year old daughter to say, “Dang, you look great Mom!”
I’m tired of having no energy.
It sounds shallow, but I want to get “checked out” by others again. 😂12 -
