[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please add to my list. I’m talking about a 5’7” female going from 200 pounds to 140 pounds.

More energy
More options for stylish clothes
Increased confidence
Overall
Health
Cut risk of diabetes, some cancers, heart attacks
Set a good example for other family members
Feeling of accomplishment (or superiority 😉)
Reduced stress on joints.[/quote]

I’ve lost just under 100 lbs in the past year.

I actually have less energy. Cutting the calories necessary for the weight loss has left me tired much of the time. 
Options for clothes are so so much better. And so easy to buy. 
Overall health risks are better 
Nothing noticeable in my joints.

Other benefits have been: 
-fitting in places both physically (booths, plane seats, arena seats) and not standing out as fat in a crowd. 
-doctors taking me seriously about complaints. I had a medical issue that for years doctors have been telling me I just needed to lose weight. When I lost the weight and it was still there, they actually figured out the real problem.
