3 Ways Losing Weight Will Improve Your Life

A lot of people want to lose weight. And it's that time of year where many of us get serious and start setting weight loss goals.

But one thing many people miss is proper motivation. Why do you want to lose weight? What will it do for you?

Successful dieters focus on what they will get out of a weight loss plan. Unsuccessful dieters usually focus on the discomfort of a new eating plan - and then quickly quit their diet.

To be successful, you want to focus on the pleasure of a new, thin body. So how will losing weight make your life better? Here are 3 benefits:

#1 You'll Feel Comfortable In Your Own Skin

Are you tired of feeling embarrassed when you take off your coat at a party? Maybe you're sick of buying 'fat clothes' and spending the night making sure your shirt is not bunched up in your 'fat roll' over your stomach.

A lot of people who are overweight do not feel comfortable in their own skin - they are self-conscious all the time. And it takes a toll.

It can also cause you to miss out on life - on the enjoyment of spending time with friends at a party or the excitement of a first date. When you lose weight you'll feel comfortable - even attractive! - in your own skin. That's definitely worth a few weeks of dieting.

#2 You'll Feel Healthier and More Energetic

Losing weight has major health benefits. They've proven that slender people tend to have less heart disease, diabetes and even PMS!

Plus you'll feel more energetic and healthy. You'll be up for that snowball fight with your kids. You are ready to try rock climbing or ice skating with that new romantic partner. You'll basically feel healthy and energetic enough to really live life - you won't miss out on those special moments that come once in a lifetime.

#3 You'll Look Hot

Ok, let's face it, we can be all noble and say we want to lose weight for health reasons. And that's great. But one of the main motivating reasons to lose weight is that you'll just look better.

A friend of mine recently lost 20 pounds and she couldn't believe it when she saw herself in a photo (she had avoided having her picture taken due to her chubby face).

She now looked model-gorgeous. She had cheekbones. And yes, she was hot. Now she jumps in every photo she can find because she actually loves how she looks!

Losing weight makes you look more attractive. That means you'll be more attractive to that Brad-Pitt lookalike in the gym. That means you'll run into your ex and leave his or her mouth hanging open. That means you may even be asked to model clothing in a fashion show.

The benefits are endless - but the main benefit is that you'll love what you see in the mirror (or the photograph).

So those are 3 main ways that losing weight will make your life better. Focus on these things, choose your diet and get going! It will be much easier to zip towards a slimmer body when you realize how much it will improve your life!
