What Are You Most Excited For, When You Reach Your Goal?

Kimegatron

I can not wait to have a Summer where I'm not so grossed out by my rolls, that I don't have to wear a hoodie day in and day out. It will be 100 degrees with 65% humidity, and I will still wear a hoodie. I can not wait to have the confidence to look in the mirror without a shirt and be OKAY with it... and I'm sure my guy can't wait, either. I can't wait until I can get back into my favorite jeans, which are 13 years old. I can't wait to have my confidence back.

I can't wait until I can wear shorts. I tried some on over the weekend, and they fit, but oh my gosh, I have elephant legs. I spent a bunch of time outside recently, walking around and playing mini golf, sweltering on the hottest day of the year, because I hate how I look in shorts.

I can't wait until I can wear clothes that are sized in the single digits. That and being able to tuck my shirts in and not feel self conscious about my tummy.

I cant wait until i can wear tank tops and feel good about my arms. I had arm rolls for as long as i could remember i hate them and find them disgusting.

I can't wait to shop in a store other than ricki's. I've been a size 18 or XXL for 9 years. I've had a VSG on June 16th. Lost 22 pounds since the surgery and a total of 60 pounds sine July of last year. I feel better, I sleep better ( no more snoring so that makes my husband happy) and I can play in the yard with my son without feeling like I'm going to have a heart attack. Surgery is not for everyone, but I am certainly happy with my decision. I come from a family where wait is an issue and I didn't want to end up having the life my dad lived. He is so proud and happy that I chose to have this surgery. I have 47 pounds to get to my goal.

My long legs in a pair of high heels, wearing a short wrap dress with a push up bra... I'm most excited to get back to my sexy self, lol!

Kimegatron

I also can't wait until I can not steal everyone's cameras to delete their full body photos that they took of me, hahahaha

Kimegatron

If I see someone with a camera focused in my general direction, I freak out and run. Well not run, I quickly saunter away.

Looking forward to building a real wardrobe. For the past 100# ive been just piecing things together to get by.

When the Gwenie Bee Ads stop rolling on all of the websites with ad sense.

I can't wait to not be the biggest person in the room!

yeahfatty

I can't wait for the day I don't have to be super anxious that the seatbelt on a plane won't fit me or when I won't feel self-conscious because I'm the fattest person on the plane & someone has the unfortunate luck of sitting next to me.

Kimegatron

Aw, @yeahfatty , that makes me sad! I wouldn't say that they have the unfortunate luck of sitting next to you, unless you forgot to shower the last few days, lol! I have never thought like that on planes, and I have flown a lot! I think people mostly care if the person smells or is loud. Don't think like that!

Dawn410

I can't wait to not be ashamed/embarrassed by my weight. I feel like such a failure for gaining weight and not being able to lose it.

yeahfatty

@Kimegatron aww I shall try not to but it's hard, especially when you read those "worst experience during a flight" tales & they involve someone being completely appalled by having to sit next to an obese person. However I don't have a flight scheduled till November, so should hopefully not have to worry about the seatbelt issue by then. (:

Kimegatron

I have felt the same on flights, but I try to make up for it by cracking jokes. I hate the awkward silence. That, and I will get liquid courage from the free boozes they serve on the plane

yeahfatty

Ahah I'll try the liquid courage thing next time, sounds like an excellent idea.

NikkyT30

I want to wear a two piece bathing suit in public and dress up for Halloween

kiela64

The first thing that comes to mind is that I can't wait to feel lighter. For my joints to hurt less. To not feel like a grandma in my 20s. I can't wait to have energy. I can't wait to feel competent at the gym. To feel like I belong there, like I'm not stealing space with my awkwardness and stupidity. To really feel like I've made the most out of having access to a nearby gym. I can't wait to go down a size, to not hate how my pants fit even when they fit.

I can't wait to eat at maintenance

This! I have a mental list of clothes I am going to get rid of ASAP. I've been making due with the same pair of black slacks for work for months now because I am too afraid to go to the store and find out what bigger size I have expanded into, even though these pants are too tight and super uncomfortable.

To be quite frank, I mostly can't wait for my husband to be able to pick me up and carry me into the bedroom.

This! I actually just said this the other day.

I also can't wait to wear shorts and tank tops in the summer. Summer has become unbearable wearing jeans all the time. I could get away with wearing shorts now, but I don't think it looks good at all.

Make sure you log that as exercise!

This was one of my first thoughts as well.
I actually am slightly stressed about transitioning from losing to maintaining after a year!! Gonna take some getting used to mentally I think.

linzi02

Clothes! Literally cannot wait to be able to order things online and when they arrive they actually look somewhat similar to how they look on the model rather than like a moose has squeezed into them

SparklySarah412

Shopping for lots of tight-fitting new clothes. Especially things like pencil skirts with tops that tuck in for the office. Then I'm going to wear skinny jeans with high heels without looking like a hippo on stilts

SingRunTing

Clothes!

It's been the best part so far. I can wear things now that I couldn't pull off before and I still have 30 lbs to lose. I can't wait to be able to wear some of the cute styles that only work on thin frames.

yopeeps025

I just can't wait to go on my bulk phase after I cut the fat to 8-10% body fat.

daniwilford

I am looking forward to weighing the same as my daughter or my little sister for the first time in our lives!

Need2Exerc1se

I don't think much will change for me once I'm at goal. I'm losing by eating at what I think maintenance will be at my goal weight so I probably won't even get to eat more to maintain. But, I will be happier with the way I look be able to fit in a few outfits that are a little tight now.

mitchelsimps

Can't wait to be a fit as i possibly can be!
