So now that I am getting close to goal, i have been wanting to do a few things that I didn't feel I could do being heavy...physically, socially, and emotionally... This week I went downhill skiing twice. Could not believe that I would have enough stamina to do it. But it happened!!!!! Things I want to do this year:

-go horseback riding

-go to a climbing wall

-ride a skidoo

-waterski

-go snow shoeing

-run a 5k

That's it for now...what is your list?

Getting banded on 3/4 so I have a long way to go...but...

Show my kids I can both swim and go off a diving board.

Ride bikes as a family to my kids soccer practice.

Go down the curvy slide at the pumpkin farm.

Jump on the trampoline.

--<insert intimate position>-- with my hubs that is too uncomfortable now

Wear clothes from the Victoria Secret's PINK collection

...and last but not least...FEEL AMAZING =)

I would like to first be able to fit into a nice bathing suit. I would like to go shopping and buy anything I want because it can fit me. I would like to go horseback riding as well. I would like to go on a roller coaster..

I was banded on November 30th, 2012 and have signed up to do the Dirty Girl Mud Run in August. Have NEVER done anything like this but since this is the year of the "new" me I figured why not. I would also like to run/walk a 5K and maybe do one at Disney World as a "yay" me achievement some time.

Great job on the downhill skiing!!

Travel, travel, travel and sex, sex, sex. Both, more comfortably than what's happening now!

And I'm definitely looking forward to more stamina, agility, confidence, a higher happiness quotient and stabler moods (i.e., no more sugar highs and lows).

My biggest goal right now is to be able to go shopping wherever I feel like it! And to get some knee high boots and skinny jeans! I also want to be able to run again. I love running, ya know, back when I could do it LOL

I think my bucket list would include water skiing and dancing like everyone's watching for all the right reasons

I am signed up for my first Color Run 5K in June.

I want to learn to ride the unicycle I bought last year.

When my BMI gets below 30, I plan to donate a kidney.

I am going to wear a slinky dress to the holiday party at work this year.

bucket list:

to wear my blue jean skirts again (i have them near by and each week, i am getting closer to getting them on)

walking a mile (now up to nearly 2 blocks a day)

walking with with my hub around flea market and not

feel he is embarrassed to be with me

to go to hubs mc's first spring/summer cook out and

NOT be the biggest girl there (now it will be the guys)

CarolinaGirl it makes me sad that you said walk around the flea market without feeling your husband is ashamed of you..

I'm newer to the forums and you seem like the sweetest person on here! Any man would be lucky to have a wife as sweet as you! Regardless of your size I'm sure he is proud of you! ???ƒ

My list includes taking my son to an amusement park and not having to worry about fitting into rides.

Fly without being uncomfortable the whole flight!

Not be forced to buy an aisle seat at sporting events because I am spilling out of the seat!

Run around for extended periods of time playing with my son.

Be able to buy clothes anywhere I want!!

To hopefully get rid of my sleep apnea, high blood pressure.

Go hiking, rock climbing, play basketball with my friends without being embarrassed, to eat in public without being self conscious, be able to comfortable fit in the desks at my college, and many many more things! Lol

my list was simple....

Just want to move.....and wear nice clothes....wanted my husband and kids proud to be seen with me....wear boots I had never been able to fit the fat calves in a pair ...cross my legs...

This past summer I came down a Water slid with one of my sons !!!!

Being 53 yrs old...it was my very first time... it was so much fun !!!

Yesterday I played basketball with my boys and then walked home back home a mile walk......lifes good

reading your comment made me cry.

that is and was so very nice of you to post that.

((thank you))

You know I never thought about this until reading this post! I have a lot of wants for when I get smaller! By cloths that don't say plus on them! Go on a trip to a amusement park and ride and ride and ride some more! But most importantly feel good in my own skin!

I can't wait to go snowboarding again! Be able to buy close that I like without worrying about it being plus size.. Maybe even go sky diving
