Why not lose weight to be healthy? To like the way you look? To be happy with yourself? I'm currently a size 16/18. I'm trying to lose weight to be a size 10/12. Maybe a little smaller, but my goal is a 10/12. I don't have a great need to be super skinny. I'm doing this for myself - so I can love how I look again. I'm married with a baby girl. My husband loves the way I look and I know he'll love the way I look whether I'm a 22 or an 8. So I'm doing this to be healthy and happy. Not to snag a guy. Not so people will like the way I look. For myself. I think it’s sad that some many people (including the heroine of this game!) want to lose weight to be attractive to OTHERS.
