    xoLisha got a reaction from Bubie1916 in 200-250... Ouch. What Are Your Goals!? Motivation.   
    That's like... one and a half of an entire person. That's so disgusting.. and... I wanna cry when I see that i have that much to lose.
    This forum , and everyone on it have been so motivational. I KNOW i can do it---as can the rest of you!!
    I look forward to this long, exciting journey ahead of me. The depression and whoa is me because this fatty cant down a burger and some nice greasy fries, the slip ups & eating some cake when I think its ok, just two bites, the excitement from jumping on the scale ( AND IT ACTUALLY WORKS And doesnt say Tiiiiiiiiiiiilt! Yes, thats true... My scale wouldnt read until like 330 lbs. Lame.), the anxiety . All of it!
    I have goals set. And things to look forward too. Some silly, some you wont understand.Some Cliche...and everyone does them all the same. But Goals , none the less.
    What are your goals for when you start dropping the numbers?
    Goal weights.....celebrations? Things you've had to pass up because you were too fat, and ashamed!?
    My list is always growing,. but here are some , ill share them. Id love to hear yours too.
    1. I bought a couple of outfits from Ross on sale, Pants currently 28/30. I bought 22/24, thats my HELL YEAH ! im doing great-Goal.. and some 1x SHIRTS ( im in 3 and 4x now) outfits to look forward too.
    BOXES of my clothes from YEARS back... the " Ooooh I cant throw this away... Ill fit into it when i lose weight down the road" Clothes pile. I know we all have one. I have two lol.
    2. Tattoos ive been mentally storing for EVER! Im to ashamed to get them on me. Tattoos and fatties= stretched out nasty ink. no thanks. dont want to reveal them. Dont want to get them. Well.... that times coming.
    When I get skinny <--- teehee...or.. skinny-ish anyhow. I want my tattoos!
    3. To dress sexy ( not skanky) could be a nice pair of jeans, boots and a shirt... whatever., and get out and go DANCING at the club!!!!!!!! Im not a big drinker, nor do i club or bar hop. But... to want to go out PUBLICLY and dance, and i love to dance--just the fact i wont be ashamed to be on the dance floor or noticed.
    I want positive attention for one min. just one.
    4. Go to the state fair and every carnival i run into! <-------- silly things.... When your a fatty... the fear of the belts not being big enough, tilting the rides, having the carnie have 3/4 of everyone move to the opposite side... rejection. Nope.
    Cant do that anymore... I want, and will go on the rides with my little girl. I refuse to have her grow up and never go to a carnival or fair because I couldnt ride with her... or didnt want to go. I miss being...,,,SOCIAL.... all this tied into that. This soon to be x-fatty is gonna ride those rides---Look out hehe
    5.To wear a .... D R E S S. Yes, a dress...
    isnt that sad? To resent, and be ashamed to wear a dress..that i have to be so excited for that.... possibly. But Im so stoked to wear CUTE CLOTHES. goodbye lane bryant... good bye fashion bug... good bye plus sizes...Hello Confidence.

    xoLisha got a reaction from oliversmomma in The Cold Hard Facts   
    Doctors can be total assholes sometimes. I went in for my feet, I crawled to the bathroom at times.. holding on walls collapsing from pain. Its called ( plantar faciaitis..bruised heels and tight tendons...=feels like death ) had it most of my life.. didnt notice it really until i hit my 250+ mark... 300.. it killed me...
    The doctor said... " Your fat, quit making excuses, and get off your butt and your feet will feel better. Wont kill you to get off the couch."...
    wow. I was speechless. RUDE...Well he was right, but rude. but its there, permanently, for one. The severity worsens with weight. So , ok whatever. But dont be so damn mean about it.
    Sometimes it takes the harsh things in life to wake u up.

    xoLisha reacted to Daisalana in Nipple piercing   
    That's actually not true, I researched that before ever getting mine done. As long as it's not infected (re: pierced right before breastfeeding), and they don't pierce it too close to the boob (which any reputable piercer knows not to do this, as that's not where it's suppose to be), there is no problem breastfeeding with pierced nipples, you just need to take the jewelry out when breastfeeding so that it does not hurt their mouth.
