What Nsvs Are You Looking Forward To?

A new year and a new body! My goal for 2013 is to drop 100lbs! But I'm also really looking forward to some of those non-scale victories, even if they take a little longer. Here's some items from my wishlist:

- No more squeezing into tiny bathroom stalls! Though I swear some of them have the TP dispenser at the worst place possible to really CRAM your legs in there!

- Going to a clothing store and not having to search for the "plus" side.

- Not having my knees grinding under my weight when I go up and down stairs.

- Wearing a swimsuit that doesn't have a freaking skirt attached

- Wearing dresses and not having my thighs rub together til they're raw

- Boots! I want a pair of freaking BOOTS!

- I want guys to try and pick me up. Not that they'll get me (I'm married), but it'll make me feel sexy. :)

What are some goals everyone else has -- crazy or non??

I'm looking forward to wearing boots!

* Never, ever, ever again shopping at Casual Male Big and Tall. I'm tall, but many regular stores sell tall clothes now. And let's be honest, 99% of my fellow customers at Casual Male were not in the tall category.

* Not worrying about whether a restaurant booth will fit.

* Never breaking another resin lawn chair.

* Skinny sex sounds fun. I guess I could have started that sentence at "sex." :)

* Taking my CPAP machine (also now know by me as my "CLAP" machine) and hitting it with a hammer.
