I'm with you my friend.. I want to buy clothes from International male.. haha. But that amusement park thing.. that really strikes a nerve with me. I was actually laughed at That day.. That was probably the worst day of my life when I had to walk with my daughter back down the line because the bar wouldn't close over my stomach..

sounds like you need to undo that memory and replace it with a good one when you get to goal!!

What's going to be your own reward to yourself?

I want to take my wife to either Hawaii or Germany...two places I've been that she hasn't and that I really want to share with her...

I'm finally going to take pictures with my husband. I feel embarrassed for him when I'm in the pic with him right now. He has given me everything else I could ever want. So, I will treat myself to being his blonde bombshell!! LOL

One of the most healing things I've ever done for myself was put out pictures of me at all different sizes....those are all parts of me and I don't want to be ashamed of me...thin, fat or somewhere in between, I'm worthy of being remembered and so are you!! I bet your husband isn't embarrassed when you are in the picture...bet he loves you for who you are regardless of the size you happen to be...

Great question! I plan on getting plastic surgery as soon as possible, new hair cut, mani pedi, new wardrobe A whole new makeover

I have a long ways to go, but when I get there I am going to go parasailing and horse back riding with my family.

  • 1 month later...

I plan to get my belly button pierced because I always wanted to and get another tattoo in recognition of my weight loss but not sure exactly when I want to get yet.

I also want to get my boobs done because they are in a sad state but I don't think that's a realistic goal since we are not in a place where we can afford plastic surgery. I will need a tummy tuck some day too but we'll see.

Two things...

  • A snow skiing trip. I've never been and have put off my wife's requests because I know it would be really hard on my knees at my current weight and I get winded too easily.
  • A new family portrait.

I love this thread ....

When I get to my goal weight I'd love to go to NY. I've always wanted to go there. It's a long way from my home in Australia, and right now I wouldn't be comfortable in a plane seat for that long. While I'm there I'd love to go shopping, clothes in the US are so much cheaper!

I like the idea the poster above had about the Pandora charms for each 25 kg lost ... a great motivation when you have a lot to lose.

My final goal ... just participating in life more!

I live a couple hours from the Adirondack mountains in NY and absolutely love hiking. I plan to treat myself to the view from the top of a lot of the bigger mountains that I was previously too out of shape to climb. I’ve done a lot of smaller mountains and a few of the bigger ones pre surgery, but really struggled with the bigger ones. I’m in the gym almost every day and getting closer to my goal weight so I figure by spring time I should be good to start tackling some of the bigger mountains.


A new stylish wardrobe! I have been helping my straight sized friends find cute & affordable outfits for years, while plus sized clothing was/is so expensive. Can’t wait to shop anywhere!

A new family portrait.

Great reminder, I can't believe how long I've put this off. The last one I have was before I met my husband--13 years ago!

I'd love to say travel or a fancy new wardrobe, but I know that my budget won't change even though my body will. The things I'm planning on are new family portraits/being in more pictures with my family and friends, and maybe a tattoo.

Boots! A really good pair of high legged boots that don't have elastic panels!
