What would you like to do/acheive once you have reached goal??

Ok ladies…I have thought about this so many times, so just thought I’d share with you below the things I would like to do once I have gotten to my goal weight.

  • Be able to shop in ANY shop I want and not have to make sure they go to plus sizes.
  • Eat out at restaurants and not have people give me the look thinking “she doesn’t need any more food to eat”
  • Not to have to look out for and make sure the chair I want to sit it doesn’t have arms
  • Not need a extension belt on an a plane and to fit comfortably in the seat
  • Get into a bikini and not have to settle for a swimming costume to hide my lumps and bumps
  • To be able to cross my legs!!!
  • Not be the biggest person when going out with friends or family.
  • Run around after my nephews and not get tired or be in pain after 30 seconds
  • Fit into rides at a theme park
  • Go horse riding (and not be told im to heavy for the horse)
  • Lastly stick two fingers up to anyone that doubted me or told me I couldn’t do it! Lol

How about you ladies…….?

I'm hoping I can take my kids to the pool in the summer in a normal bathing suit. Not my "cowsuit" as I call it. Just a normal one-piece.

Mine is a goal that every woman should have...

I plan on buying the most skimpiest, sluttiest bikini I can find. Go on a cruise with no children in sight. Dock on some romantic island with beautiful beaches and make love while the waves cover our bodies.

As you can see I've thought about this a lot. LOL

I want to to this - and dance on a pole when we get back home!! I want to wake up the inner sex kitten whose asleep right now. I want my husband to think about me the way he did 70 lbs. ago. I know he still thinks Im beautiful and all of that...but I want him to know me as that vixen again.

Hey Ladies,

I think we should plan to meet somewhere tropical and exotic during the summer of 2009 or 2010, and plan to wear our skimpiest, sluttiest bikinis, and do a 'Lap Band' parade down the beach!:tongue2:

Who's in?:)

  1. Go jogging
  2. Run in a marathon
  3. Siwm in the pool and sit in the hot tub
  4. Travel the world

Ahhh.... when I lose all my weight I want to....

1. Cut my hair. Being fat causes insecurity, and everyone compliments me on my hair, so it's my security blanket.

2. Not have to suck it in all the time!! Breathe!! haha

3. Go on vacations and not be restricted due to my weight! Example: In Vegas I couldn't keep up with my friends on the strip, the walking was too much and my feet and knees were killing me. In Cancun, I wouldn't go scuba diving cuz I didn't want to be seen in bathing suit... you get the idea.

4. Do & think about ANYTHING other than my weight! It has consumed my life for too long, and I cannot wait to have that monkey off my back and enjoy living!

I'm with you on the Lane Bryant credit card...I want to go on a hiking trip in the mountains and not feel like I'm having a heart attack

Be comfortable in bathing suit as we always end up at a beach somewhere for vacations. I also would like the mental freedom to know that I was in control of my weight(practice, practice). It will be awesome to live at a normal weight!

  • Meet a good man and start a family
  • Do a local mountain hike known as a real challenge and not feel like i'm going to die 5 minutes in
  • run a 10K marathon
  • go shopping with friends and let them wait for me while i try on a million gorgeous clothes in non-plus sizes
  • take a hip hop dancing class
  • be comfortable in my own skin

to see the me my husband sees.

I keep telling my husband that I want to be beautiful again. I want to be able to walk to the end of the driveway with my 1 1/2 year old son. I want to wear a swim suit with out a cover. I want to not have to look in the back of the store for the plus size clothes.

I would like to sit on a plane or theater without being squished. I would like to hike, swim, bowl , try new things. I want to wear a tight leather catwoman outfit for Halloween.
