the thng that i really want to do is to go to disneyworld. my kids have all gone there and i've lived in fl for 15 yrs but i have never gone. i'm too afraid that i will get on a ride and i won't be able to buckle up.:thumbup:

I would like to get a family picture--one that I could put on a Christmas card to people I see very rarely. Right now we only use pictures of the kids because I don't want the people I see every 10 or 15 years to see how I look now.

I would love to have a great picture of the whole family.

I would like to have a fourth child and have everyone see a baby bump right away and not think oh here Jeni goes getting fat again or wait is she pregnant? I want to see the skin move when the little one kicks etc and not just feel and see a little rumble. I want to experience pregnancy as a thin person.

I want to renew my wedding vows in an actual wedding dress. I know I could do that as a bigger gal, but I would love to have that knock out figure coming down the aisle.

I want to do a solo dance performance that is NOT a comedy routine, and I want a pretty costume to wear for it.

(I teach belly dance, but quit performing when my weight ballooned the last time.)

marykb, i do the same thing for pictures! belly dancing should be a good excercise llyra. i would like to try that new zumba dance tap. i love to dance but am too embarassed to do it in public. i would also like to get back in a bathing suit and go tubing down the river without thinking everyone is watching me trying to get on the tube!

Walk, as long and as far as I want to, without any pain. Ride all the rides at any amusement park with my grand kids. Go to the pool in an actual bathing suit, not shorts and a T shirt.

Try to ride a bike again. Used to love to ride, but am now afraid I would dwarf the bike, and the tires would go flat.

I too would love to have a picture done of me and hubby. We've never had one done.

Hmmm...... I'm not sure what I want. I guess all I want is to feel better about myself and the way I look.

Belly dance is good for your soul, too. I've been dancing and/or teaching since 1976. Had to slow up when my weight crept up to 240 because of the stress on my knees, but it's getting better and by fall, I should be able to get back after it instead of just coaching. Find yourself a class- you'll love it and there are all sorts of body shapes that belly dance.

I want to go to six flags and ride all the rides. I have been one of those people that had to leave the ride because I didn't fit, I never want to go thru that sort of embaressment again :smile2:

I also want to go shopping at a normal store in the mall like Charlotee rues (sp?).

I want I want I want!! I want and am planning for everything on here, even the belly dancing. LOL

I can't wait to go clothes shopping without hiding from those huge mirrors that are impossbile to hide from in the dressing room. I hate trying on clothes now that I've gotten so heavy.

I want some pictures of me with my kids. I'm a good photographer so there are a million of them with my husband. They're all good looking and thin! There's no actual evidence that we are living on the same planet even though I spend all my time with them. It also wouldn't kill me if a man started flirting with me and I had to tell him I was married. It's been a while! Some off the rack shopping for some really nice clothing would be a nice bonus too. Am I getting too greedy?

I want to start dating. I really have not bothered trying to date anyone because of my size. These men are not interested in a woman my size. They can't get past my weight and really get to know me. I'm tired of hearing "you have a really pretty face, but..."

There is so much I want to do. Everything I'm not doing now I want to do. I would love to date again. Just to start off, I want to walk up the stairs and not be so tired from half a flight.

I can't wait to feel good/better about being in a swimsuit...and then I would really love to scuba. The hard thing about being heavy is that fat floats....makes scuba a little hard.

I want to have a family picture taken. I want to keep walking into places and have people continue saying, "WOW you look great. I almost didn't recognize you." I want to have skinny fun with my husband :biggrin: I want to be able to look food in the face and be able to control myself not have food control me anymore. And last I want to get a total make-over from hair, to nails to toes, to make-up to wardrobe..ahhh!
