What is your least noble reason for wanting to lose weight?
First of all, I and probably most all of us, wanted to lose weight for my health and that alone was enough of a reason to do it. That being said.....
I love being smaller than some of those women who thought they could flirt with my husband right in front of me because I was so overweight! I can still hear, ya know?
What are some less than noble reasons that you want to lose weight?
No Martyrs - only the wrong reasons are acceptable, lol!

I saw this on the MB too and thought it was funny.
My *****y reason: Cuz for once I wanted the HOT guy. Not the nice, funny, smart guy damnit, HOT. Mission accomplished.

Before the surgery I kept putting things off. I was never good enough. One of the benefits of WLS is that you start to believe in yourself. Check out my blog:

Apparently so!

When I worked at VISA 15 years ago I met a guy and we had an instant connection. We were together ALL THE TIME and people thought we were dating. I liked him in that way and he liked me too in that same way. People asked why he never asked me out and his reply was because he would be embarrassed by my weight. That hurt so much. After the dept. closed I never saw him again.... until recently. We both work in the financial district here in TO and I sometimes see him near my office building. I'd love to be able to "bump" into him post-surgery and show off my new self.
There's also a few relatives [cousins/aunts] who always made fun of me because of my weight and I cant wait to show off my new slender self to them. Im not sure I'd tell them that I had surgery....lol!
ETA: VISA guy still asks about me - we have some mutual friends and they tell me he always asks how I'm doing.
Don't get me wrong...as I said in my post regarding that experience a week or so ago, I don't want any part of that ex, God knew best when He blessed me with my husband, who has always found me beautiful, but it sure was nice to hear him say how "HOT" I am after all these years!
