10. Birthday cake!
9. Falling in love, running a company, buying a home — you know, the real stuff.
8. Perspective. It’s just five pounds. No need to act like it’s 50.
7. Friends kind enough to post only the good photos.
6. Dumping the guy who answered, “Uh, yea,” to “Does my butt look big in this?” There, 180 pounds gone!
5. Magic underwear. (Why do you think our grandmas always looked so good?)
4. The baby/law degree/743 Mexican dinners that put the weight on in the first place.
3. Going to Paris for the cheese, and San Francisco for the sourdough.
2. Legs strong enough to hike you all the way to the top.
1. World peace. Or even inner peace.
