I'm planning on going on holiday in December I'm also hoping to drop another roughly 10kgs by then - I won't be very close to my goal weight, but I'll certainly be skinnier and healthier.
I'm looking forward to being able to do fun, adventurous, and fitness based activities instead of being worn out from walking around sight seeing!6 -
Looking forward to meeting new friends that aren't embarrassed to be seen with me. I'd be content with just one person to go out and do things with.
Not hearing, if you would just loose weight, you have a pretty face.
Not being stared at when eating out.
Shopping at normal clothing stores and being able to find more of a selection at thrift stores.
Giving up the beast title. Right now my dog and I are known as beauty and the beast. He's the beauty, I'm the beast. Lol

Originally, I wanted to look good for graduation but seeing as that's in less than 2 weeks, it's no longer happening and I'll have to make sure I drink enough water and don't get bloated. At the moment it's just being able to fit into clothes I already have because the sizes are slowly getting bigger and I don't want that.3

First and foremost, I want to be a role model for my three kids and inspire them to enjoy life in a healthy way.
Being able to enjoy doing more activities with my kids.
Looking hot shirtless. Well, actually looking the best I have never been.
Buying clothes that make me look really good and some tight shirts, T-shirts, trousers, etc.
It has already started as I had to buy real swim shorts (the tight model not trunks) as I swim a lot. I had always refused to wear them (although it is mandatory at pools in France for example) because I would look terrible.
Now, I don't feel that way anymore.
I still don't feel good looking but getting there !3 -
A 30-minute 5k.
A wardrobe that consists of more than 4 dresses and some t-shirts and jeans.2 -
Wearing a dress that I like instead of one that "compliments my apple shape"7

I'm almost to my goal weight and have started doing a lot of things that I didn't do before - and didn't really realize I had stopped doing them because of my weight until I dropped that weight.
But there is one I haven't done yet that I have wanted to do, and that is go to a park/school and go on the swings. I loved the swings, but haven't approached one in years for fear they would break, and with good reason.
It's time. Maybe tomorrow.9 -
lowering my blood pressure
getting back into single digit clothes
hitting the beach/pool in a two piece!!
passing a mirror with a smile instead of with frustration
loving to take pictures again
some of these things are already coming to fruition. I am excited!!4 -
Taking professional photos with my family, fitting into smaller clothes and maintaining my health. Thanks for the post... Those are good thoughts and good luck you all! ❤️ColoradoDan wrote: »Just a fun thread today for everyone.....
What are some of the things you are really looking forward too once you lose your goal weight?
Here are some of mine:
- Participate in the mud run my friends do each year.
- Not get winded walking up stairs to bed.
- Not have to use a CPAP machine when sleeping anymore. No sleep apnea.
- Wear normal sized clothes - no more only going to stores with big & tall sections.
- Enjoy going to the gym and getting exercise and not have it be a chore.
- Feel more than comfortable taking shirt off at pool, hot tub, beach, basketball game, or hiking.
- Be able to bend over and tie my shoes without belly in way. Not tying them cross legged/sideways.0 -
Being able to sew with the cool indie designer patterns and use less fabric doing it - and wearing cool trendy styles without being afraid of looking ridiculous in them because I am fat. Not to mention just more options in smaller sizes clothes-wise, and my thighs not rubbing together when I run.2
-
And laying out to get a tan or not wearing a shirt when exercising (just sports bra). That would be rad.

Man, this list could go on forever. I'm looking forward to...
* Only having one chin
* Not looking immense next to my considerably smaller friends
* Collarbones!
* Fitting more comfortably into airplane seats
* Being able to cross my legs again
* Not being ALWAYS too warm
* Not having to consider whether I'll fit in the booth or not
* Being able to wear half of my closet again! I could lose 100 pounds without having to go shopping. Seriously.
* Dating. Right now I only seem to attract guys who assume that because I'm fat I must be desperate.5 -
Maybe I won't get treated like crap2

I'm definitely looking forward to going shopping and wearing the clothes I've always wanted to wear. I work in fashion and I want to look great in my clothing, and more importantly, feel comfortable wearing it for 9+ hours a day. This includes wearing a button-down that won't gap in the chest (my holy grail of cool-girl basics to fit into!). But when it comes down to it, I'm in my mid-20s, and I want to look great whenever I look back at some of my best years. I realized the other day that I haven't been less than 150 pounds since I was in 6th grade... going below that would mean I've accomplished a goal I've had for over 10 years.4
