I have allowed my weight to hinder so much of my life... I have put so much limitations on myself that I have list of things I CAN'T WAIT TO DO when I hit my goal. My top five things are:
1. Ride on a Wave Runner 2. Ride an airplane without using a seat belt extension 3. Wear a belt 4. Ride a roller coaster (its been over 10 yrs) 5. be able to have children.
Looking at this list keeps me focused an motivated. What are some things on your "I can't wait to do...." List.
..

go shopping for a size 9 , play with my grandchild

1) be able to go clothes shopping and not have to look in the large section
2) be more attractive and have people look twice cuz they wanna and not cuz they can't tell what it was.

1. look amazing
2. feel good in a swimming suit
3. go hiking.
4. buy a sexy red dress!!!! lol
5. wear normal clothes.....

What an amazing thing to think about! Wow I can see where this could be some good motivation...hmmm if I had to pick 5 things right now they would be
1) Run in the yard with the kids
2) Not have to pull my shorts out of my thighs this summer (maybe tmi but it is true)
3) Go shopping for a new swimsuit in the misses dept!
4) fit into a stadium seat, rollrecoaster, or airplane seat without hurting myself
5) have my "after" picture taken!

SO TRUE!! and it's AWEFUL.

after pictures would be wonderful.

1. lay out by the pool without getting embarrassed
2. play sports with my students
3. wear cute jeans
4. wear a dress/skirt without looking pregnant

I can't wait to not want to cry every time my boyfriend takes me clothes shopping because none of the "good" clothes fit right. Also, why the h*** are all the petite clothes for really really skinny people or really really big people? What about those of us that are somewhere in the middle?!

1. Shop in a regular clothing store, not plus size store
2. Wear high heels, (too painful now)
3. Wear a 2 piece swimsuit (it'll be a long while before that)
4. Not have to turn sideways when I go through a turnstile at the subway
5. Go with my kids on rides at the amusement park

great idea!

1. Look down and see my feet
2. Go clothes shopping and enjoy it
3. Buy some sexy lingerie instead of structurally engineered lingerie!
4. Have a waist
5. Post my after pictures
