Part of the reason I'm working out and trying to lose weight is, of course, so that I will be healthier and hopefully live a longer, better life. But the bigger reason is vanity, pure & simple. I want to look better naked. For me, sex is much better when I'm thinner. Not necessarily for My Man because he is certainly not complaining now, but for me. I feel sexier and therefore I am sexier. I am more open when I'm not trying to cover up, hide my fat thighs or big tummy. I'm more adventurous and spontaneous and just plain fun. It may not be a popular thing to admit but it's the truth and I'd venture to say a lot of you would agree with me. I'm working this hard so that I can wear shorter skirts, tighter jeans..so that I can turn ahead now & then when I walk in a room. There's a confidence that comes with looking and feeling your best, we women just oooze sex appeal when we've got our game on! I had that once, and I want it back again! And then when I get home with Beren, I want to have him undress me to find gorgeous lingerie which looks damn good on me and yet he's quite happy to remove. Quickly. *wink*
So, these are the thoughts I was having at 6 o'clock this morning as I dragged myself out of a nice warm bed, put on workout clothes and headed out the door into the 30 degree weather. As I walked around the park, I listened to the super-suggestive hip hop music set that Kali made me, laughed out loud and sang those dirty lyrics under my breath, feeling strong & healthy and (almost) sexy.
Tell me, what's your reason for losing weight? Is it all for your health or is there some vanity thrown in? Are you like me and you just want to look good naked?
