I have nothing against people who wants to lose weight so badly. I was just wondering why they do that.I mean, aside from the fact that they want to look good and for healthy purposes, is there other reasons?
There are people who look good already, slim and all, but they are not yet satisfied with how they look. At first they would just say "I'm fat", and when they already achieved their desired weight and figure, they are still saying, "I feel ugly". And after some time, dieting is already part of their daily routine.They can't live a day without being too cautious about the food they eat, working out, or worse, eating almost nothing at all.
These people need help and understanding.

I can't speak for other people but I need to lose weight since it is in best interest of my health. The only problem being with the medications my doctor has me on it is almost impossible to lose the weight--you gain it right back. I just can't see myself with diabetes or another medical condition because I weigh too much. I believe exercise and watching what you eat is important.

I am one of the people who is very concerned about weight losing. I used to be a little plump before and I looked unattractive. Furthermore I feel unhealthy because it was difficult to breathe sometimes. And when walking I felt my legs were heavy to lift. That's why I am concerned on losing weight. Now that I have achieved my ideal weight I want to maintain it until forever. I eat regular meals and healthy food. Now I feel healthy and energized.
