Same here - EVERYTHING changed.
Of course I still have the same values, morals, beliefs, ideals and all that really important inner stuff - that has not changed.
The only strange thing that HAS changed for me, inner wise, is my sensitivity toward overweight people funny enough. I see somebody overweight now and my heart absolutely goes out to them, much more so then before. I want so badly to help them, though I know that I can not. I think I am overall more sensitive to people with handicaps now. I don't know why that is.
-My confidence level has definitely soared. It's just so much more enjoyable to socialize and even to shop in the grocery store. I smile so often now. I am so friendly and people are always approaching me now. I interact so well with others now. And the funny thing is I always thought I had compensated for my large weight by trying to be outgoing. No, now I see that that was not the case.
-My energy level and stamina has increased by leaps and bounds. Indescribably so. I can't even begin to tell you.
-My enjoyment of even the most mundane things has risen as well. Big time. Even doing the dishes and the laundry is more enjoyable now. I can't quite explain it.
-I finally feel just so normal, regular and ordinary - like I blend in. I always felt as if I was taking up more then my fair share of the universe. Probably because I was
-I worry a lot less now. I was always worried about seats and chairs. If I was going to fit in them and then if I was going to break them. I worried about going to parties. I worried about clothing (which is an absolute joy now) There was never enough choices for me. I always felt so dowdy and underdressed wherever I went. Nothing reflected me and my style.
-And then of course there's the health worries. I had such fears about putting myself at added risks for dreaded diseases. Those have ceased. Thankfully.
-Getting dressed is a pleasure, going to sleep is a pleasure. Just EVERYthing is so much BETTER.
-I feel as if the whole world has opened up to me. As if I can be an active participant in life now instead of just an observer.
Yeah, I could go on and on and on. There really isn't even one area that has not been affected by my weightloss. Not one.
