My goals were to be able to go canoeing comfortably, to be able to ride a horse, and to travel without worry about seating and weight limits. Am excited as have canoe trip planned in 2 months.

That should be loads of fun! Multi-day trip?

I want to enjoy the outdoors again. I want to go kayaking and camping. I want to be able to fit into a regular bathtub. I want to ride a roller coaster again and fit, fly in an airplane without asking for a seat belt extender. I want to own shoes with shoelaces.

[Mattymatt 491]

These are all such good goals. May everyone achieve then and more.

I want to look better naked.. lol

Also, I want to get back to running regularly like I did before I gained the 60lbs I had lost on weight watchers, plus 20 for reinforcement..... I had gotten up to doing half marathons. I want to do those again as well as one day tackle the full marathon.

I want to have a bath in a normal bathtub, ride horses again, learn to climb those rock walls, go shopping for normal clothes, not be looked at, fit easily in economy on flights, not be the big girl in the group.

Love these! I forgot an important one. I want to be able to get back up without calling the jaws of life or the fire department if I fall! No joke!

I want to get a bike. I've wanted a bike for years but I'm past the weight to just be able to purchase one at Target or Walmart. I'd also like to fit in my normal bathtub and use bath bombs to relax.

Mine is a bit full of vanity I live in a "ritzy" area and all the shops only go up to a size 10 max I would love to be able to go shopping with my friends and not feel like a bystander and I suppose vice versa when I drag them to torrid

The actual number on the scale isn't my primary goal or motivation. I have been diabetic in one form or another (gestational diabetes that led to type 2) for more than 7 years. There are realities that accompany T2 that I'm not wanting to face, at least not in my 50s. I have two young kids and I want to be around, with all my limbs intact, when they graduate, get married, etc. Getting smaller is an added bonus, but I want to feel like I'm in control of my body and not need a gazillion meds to make that happen.
