I haven't been banded yet either. I have only started the process and will have my intro meeting next month. But anyways, I totally love the vintage pin up look! I swear that once I achieve my goal...that is how I will reward myself. I don't care how far I have to travel and how much it costs, I am gonna do it! My hubby will probably think I am nuts because I am not sure he knows about my interest in that style. But I think he would appreciate the end result!

Barbara - You should look up Boo Boo Kitty and take a look at her pics. You may find inspiration there. She does pinup pics and she looks amazing.

My list changes - want a pair of real shoes- no birkiew, clogs, or crocs

want to swim in a nice swimsuit.

have a great pair of jeans

1. Re-take my wedding photos.

2. Finally try to have a baby!

3. Take a trip to a tropical island where you lounge around in swimwear and sarongs all day.

1. Find me a husband

2. Buy an utterly fabulous evening dress and find an appropriate event to showcase my new self (I live in Manhattan)

3. Sit with legs crossed (folded over each other) on the subway while taking up less than one seat

Hey, come with us. I am coming to see NYC and staying in Manhattan before a cruise. Im doing 3 days in NYC and the 5 day QM2. I bought 2 formals. I hear they get totally decked out on the QM2. I think I might hit right below 140 lbs by the time this cruise leaves on July 1st. We have a black and white ball the 2nd night and a red white and blue ball the 4th night and see the fireworks in Boston Harbor on July 4th.

Im not sure I will look "fabulous", but Im certainly going to look better than I did the same time a year before. Come along, and you can look fabulous for this July 4th weekend. You dont even have to fly there. Maybe we can both meet husbands and cross that off our lists too!!!

thank you so much flowers! i am no way going to be fabulous enough by july, i'm not being banded until march 9th. the cruise sounds awesome though, have a wonderful time!

1) be surprised that Water in the bath tub goes all the way around you;

2) be surprised the carpentry elves have rushed ahead of you and rebuilt all the lunch booths "big enough" for you to fit;

3) wonder how to adapt to NOT being the biggest person in every room you go into..........

etc.

those are on my list also.

1- Wear a bathing suit in public.

2- Go horseback riding.

3- Be "on top" more. (hehe)

I had to laugh at your last one and I'm adding to the top of my list :)

1. Be on top more

2. Dance dance dance

3. Doing "child's pose" yoga move without looking like a bolder.

1 - Buy a nice bra from Victoria's Secret. My DD's have turned in to C long :)

2 - Buy a bathing suit and not cover it up with shorts and a t-shirt when we go to the ocean in a few months

3 - Wear high heels, now that my feet shouldn't hurt so much from carrying around an extra 80 pounds!

Try the Very Sexy line at VS...........the greatest bras Ive ever had!

1. Buy a designer jean in a size 10 or below - DONE! bought me a pair of 7 for all Mankind Jean in a size 10 and I look good in them if I have to say so myself!

2. Buy some knee high boots that actually fit when my calves are smaller - DONE! Bought a pair this winter, and I love them!

3. Wear a bikini in public. - NOT DONE, however, I have bought my bikini, just need to feel more confident in my body first. 20 more pounds should do it!

Was just banded on 2/24 and I've got a way to go but I can't wait to:

1) Tuck my shirts in a cute pair of jeans.

2) Exercise and be active with anything without worrying about looking like a blob or not being able to do it.

3) Take more pictures of me with my family. I play The Photographer now so I don't have to be in the photos.

and to add more:

4) Look good in a bathing suit.

5) Feel GREAT in my body!

I am tucking my shirts in!

I am crossing my legs!

I am getting on my horse without having to use a ladder!

What I still want??

Sexy bras and panties

A beachy vacation

To feel average sized! (all psychological but what the heck)
