10 years ago when I turned 50 my weight started going up due to age and a desk job. I eventually reached 255 on a 5'9" frame. My wife, family and my doctor all told me to bring it down without much cooperation from me. Well about a year ago I got disgusted with the fact that size 22W clothes were not very stylish. I set a goal to eat less, exercise more and slowly I have dropped 45 lbs and have about 15 to 20 to go. Last February when my wife became accepting of my CDing I really kicked it in gear, always joking that I wanted to regain my girlish figure. The last 2 skirts I purchased were size 16 and I have a goal of 14 with a couple of size 12s thrown in for good measure. I feel great and love what I am able to wear now days.
Just wondering if anyone else was motivated to get their weight under control because of their CD desires. I know it motivated me more than my wife, doctor or family. Of course the wife is the only one that knows why I really did it.
