6. Me too.

It's kind of sad that cosplay is my motivation to lose weight. >>;

6 OP

Hey, just as long as we have motivation, right?

Hey, ever since I started cosplaying years ago I've paid much more attention to how I actually look inside and outside of cosplay, and I have to say, sad as it is, that it has actually had a completely positive influence on me, especially my posture and using sunscreen and lotion and that sort of thing. I think seeing all those photos of you around with you looking unpresentable (for me, my biggest problem was my horrible slouching) is what does it; you generally don't have that many semi-candid pictures of you anytime but when you're cosplaying.

...so basiclally I'm saying if it motivates you to a positive change, then who cares? My posture's better than it ever has been, and I'll definitely be thankful for it when I'm older.

Agreed so much! As long as you're not developing an eating disorder or something stupid, cosplay is a GREAT way to motivate yourself to look your best and be more healthy. Keyword being healthy. I know I could lose a couple pounds and be more sculpted and toned if I wanted to- heck, I might be more healthy, what with regular exercise and a better diet!
Since I started cosplaying, I take better care of my skin and general appearance and I FEEL BETTER about myself, because I feel like I'm at my best! I'm really self-conscious, so the extra motivation makes me feel better overall.

Good for you! Just make sure you keep taking care of yourself!
