So I know a lot about weight loss is goal oriented....be it for health reasons, or self esteem, or whatever......so I'm just curious what everyone's goals are. Here's mine:
I have this adorable bikini that I got when my husband and I were still dating....and I wanna wear it again! It still technically fits, but would look awful. I want to get to the point where I can confidently wear it again.
What's your goal?

My main goal is to be able to move more without so much pain!!.

At first it was so that I could move without breathing heavy, and I wanted to be able to tie my own shoes without hassle. Now that I\'ve accomplished those goals my new goal is to look better and to continue getting healthier. I am working towards becoming a fitness freak! [IMG

my gold is to loose weight because i need to live a long and healthy life and so that i can realy feel good about my self and take care of my childrenand interact with them.

My biggest goal is to keep up with my son. I also want to do things like walk, with out breathing heavy, look good in clothes, and be able to go out and walk again with out so much pain. I want to be healthy so I can be around to watch my son grow up.

My biggest goal is to lose weight not only for myself, but so that my family stops putting me down all the time because it just makes the situation worse

Well, aside from being able to move better, breathe easier one of my goals is to wear this dress I have again. Its simple yet beautiful. In order for me to be able to wear it again I have to lose about 40 pounds. So on that note maybe I will go take it out and hang it up somewhere so I can see it. Maybe I will be more inspired.

Hi, I'm new to this forum and am looking forward to reading your posts and contributing my support to others. My goal is to be free from the limitations I put on myself due to this weight. I want to be able to go into any store and know that at least a medium will fit. I want to know if I don't look my best on a particular day it's NOT because of my weight, but instead, something small, like a bad hair day. I want to know what a runner's high feels like again. Oh, and I want to know what it feels like NOT to be self conscious when I wear shorts and a tank top. Wow, dare I dream?

I have several. I too put limitations on myself because of my weight...I hate to go out because it's so hard to find something to wear, I haven't owned a bathing suit in 2 years, I even avoid sex (sorry if that's TMI, but I'm sure there are others who do it too!). I want to get healthy to have more stamina and strength, to feel better, to live longer.

BUT...I am also vain enough to want to be HOT again, and always do better if I set myself a time limit and an appearance-related goal. So this time it is to lose enough weight (about 50 pounds) to be able to wear a sexy Halloween costume!! LOL!

My goals are to be able to move around better! Fit into clothes!
