Best part of losing weight?

I would say getting to buy bras at Victorias Secret. I was never small enough to fit into them before and its nice to finally have pretty bras!

Wearing tops that don't totally hide my stomach and feeling good about how I look in clothes!

My old "skinny" clothes either fit perfectly now or are too big.
I get hit on while out running errands (sometimes)
lol I can trim and paint my toenails now too. I used to have my husband cut them.

fitting into clothes that were once too tight

Being more active.
Trying things I never would have, like learning to dance salsa
Being hotter.

I'm thinner, stronger and simply feel healthy again. Being able to run again (couldn't 6 months ago) and jogging 5.4 miles at a 9:37 minute per mile pace yesterday as I get ready for the first of 2 5k runs I've signed up for. I've never signed up for a race before, even when I was in great shape years ago. I've got energy to burn and my confidence in myself is growing with every tiny success.

Leaving the lights on.

This is a great topic.

1) A sense of accomplishment.
2) Wearing my old "skinny" clothes and having them be a little loose (they aren't *that* skinny).
3) Compliments from people who have noticed my progress. I LOVE that the most.
4) I fly a lot and I don't feel like I have to apologize to my seatmate for any "spillage".

I can't wait to be able to say that someone has hit on me. It has been a while and it would be good for my ego.

Edited to add: I work from home and tend to not go out much, except to the gym.

This is a goal for me too. Can't wait til I can buy a bra and panties from VS.

wearing a tight fitted little black dress and my daughter's friend telling me I look hot! lol!!! I'm also smaller than my sisters!!!! lol!!!!! ;D

taking my shirt off when i go in the pool.

1) not feeling out of breath when I chase my son
2) looking good in my black and blue bikini
3) that space in between my thighs now when I walk, so they dont rub together anymore
4) single digit pants sizes
5) when my fiance hugs me, his arms go all the way around, and then some
6) feeling sexy in VS panties again, and being able to buy a MEDIUM when Ive been a large and xlarge for so long!

Top 10 reasons on what the best part of losing weight is.....

1. not feeling winded climbing the stairs, walking, or carrying things up and down stairs (I.E. laundry)
2. I breathe easier
3. It's helped me battle my spurts of depression - I can look in the mirror now when I'm sad and say to myself, "Hey, what's there to be sad about....look at this huge accomplishment that you are reaching!"
4. More attention I am receiving from men.
5. A larger variety of clothes to buy in the stores.
6. I feel healthy - not just in appearance, but literally feel healthy from the inside out. I treat my body as a temple. I nourish it only with healthy foods. It's amazing how when you choose to eat certain foods, it aids my depression spurts. Since eliminating the breads, pasta's, potatoes, rices, cakes, cookies, junk foods, etc., my emotions are much more controlled. (Been through an emotional roller coaster the past 2 years....)
7. I'm not pulling on my shirts/blouses to cover up my stomach and thighs.
8. Less material to wash AND less material to pack when vacationing!!! - the suit cases are lighter because they're smaller sizes. So, I can pack MORE. This makes me sooo happy to have a large variety on vacation. (and this will not change, but my shoes get their own suit case just for themselves lol)
9. It's definitely a confidence booster...I don't feel as if everyone is looking at me when I'm in public. I feel this way the most when I walk into parties or out on camping trips. All the women are skinny wearing their colorful bikini's and here I am (WAS) the only woman wearing a black one piece to try and cover up my fat, plus wearing capri's to hide my thunder thighs...and all they wear is a bikini and booty shorts with their bikini top.....Totally depressing at times!
10. ....Last and DEFINITELY not least.....my health. This is the main reason why I am on this lifetime journey of a healthy lifestyle. Aside from the clothes and looking better, I want to live longer. I want to be able to have children, and watch their children grown. This is for me. And for as long as I'm going to live, I want to enjoy the fruits of life without having to worry about pills, machines, canes, walkers, handicap parking spots, wheelchairs, hospice care, nurses.....NO THANK YOU! lol....

-taking half the time to shave my legs
-being able to keep up with my kids (5, 3, & 1)
-being able to play on the play sets at the playground with them without the fear of becoming stuck going down the slides
-new clothes
