Skinny Bucket List



Recommended Posts

My weight is coming off pretty good. My first big goal is 50 pounds and I'm at 33 now. To Celebrate I'm going to learn to ride a motorcycle and buy a Harley :D I keep telling people it's on my skinny bucket list. Even though I'm getting the whole 'you're crazy!' thing from people. Actually here's my whole skinny bucket list:

1. Ride a Harley

2. Get back on a roller coaster

3. Get a boyfriend (:wub:)

4. Wear a bikini (of course, that's my final bucket list item :D)

So, what's on your bucket list? Maybe I can add some ideas to mine :)

1. buy some sexy clothes and lingerie

2. Buy and wear a bikini

3. Get a bikini wax. Oh my goodness that one scares me though. Too shy. Maybe I won't be when I'm thinner.

4. Cut my hair in a trendy way that only looks good on skinny people

5. Train and participate in a marathon or 1/2 marathon first I guess. ;)

Where should I start?

1) Become more active outdoors: hiking, camping, etc.

2) Participate in and possibly run in marathons

3) Jog on a regular basis.

4) Buy trendy clothes and ROCK them.

5) Stock up on new panties, bras, and lingerie and let out my inner kitten. lmao!

6) Take poll dancing lessons.

Girls, don't be shy! We all know that most of us secretly wish we had the nerve to do this. I won't ever make it to the stage but I'm sure my husband won't mind. Shhhh, I won't tell! lmao!

1. Wear shorts in the summer (without them immediately riding up!)

2. Wear a bathing suit in public

3. Sexy boots and high heels!

4. Be able to squat, like, ever.

5. Jump rope!

6. Go on bike rides with my family.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS TOPIC! I was in the process of starting my own list of things I want to do once I lose my weight, now I have a name for my list. Ok let me just start with the first few, cuz i'm sure this list is gonna grow as i think more:

1. cross my legs comfortably.

2. tie my shoe and have to bow in the middle not on the sides( i know someone knows what i mean by this! lol)

3. by clothing out of a store other than Ashley Stewart or Lane Bryant( although AS has some curte clothes)

4. run up a flight of stairs and still be able to hold a conversation immediately after

5. cut my hair (well my weave, cuz i'm not letting that go!), in a cute shorter style.

6. participate in some type of marathon

Ok that's all i have for now, but i'll keep thinking

Ooh! I'd like to be able to comfortably do a roller coaster again. I always tell my friends "I just don't like it anymore" but the truth, it's just not comfortable, or I don't fit, and it's embarrassing! I guess along with that sit comfortably in a movie theatre seat, and an airplane seat. It's getting a lot easier, but I want to not be touching the sides ahha.

My #1 thing is I want to be able to go in to ANY women's clothing store and buy clothes. Now, I won't ever be skinny mini, I'm a big girl, I'm tall. But I want to be able to buy anything I want from New York & Company, or Express a regular store. Hell, I'd love to buy some cheap disposable clothes from Forever 21! ahah

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
