i was just wondering what everyone was looking forward to the most after reaching their goal weight? Personally for me I think it's got to be feeling comfortable in a tshirt. As it stands at the moment I wear layers (making myself look even larger :sad: ) just to give myself the illusion that people can't see the way my body looks underneath.

How about you guys? :happy:

    Honestly at this point it's much better though, I still have too much fat in my midsection but I don't look too bad. I'd like to be able to wear a dress though... still way too much fat for that. Bikinis are not happening so whatever...

    Well 60lbs is an awesome milestone so far! I mean you lost way over 1/4 of your bodyweight! :happy:

    At first I thought you meant what do you look forward to generally, and my answer was bedtime, LOL.

    Weight loss wise, I'd say a flatter stomach to look better in/out of shirts and dresses. Also, being stronger.

    My next driver license photo. Hopefully I won't have such a fat face. :)

    Heh as someone that just had to get a round of headshots done last week for various things I can totally relate to that feeling.

    Just feeling better about myself really. I'm really insecure about my butt and thighs. As a woman with a pear shape body, I feel like I'm somehow stuck with it. I get really happy when someone tells me I look slimmer. I automatically ask if I lost weight from my lower or bottom half lol. Also, I look forward to getting new and well fitted jeans, pants, shorts that flatter my curves.

    I reached my goal weight awhile ago, but I still still still love turning heads. And I still love putting together pretty outfits.

    My original goal was 140lbs, when I got there I changed it to 126. I am now at 128 and very happy with that. What I looked forward to most, feeling comfortable in my own skin. What I look forward to most now? Challenging my body in new ways, I have recently found a passion for weightlifting and LOVE it!

    BTW, what I least like about having lost the weight is how much easier I feel the cold!! BBBRRRR!

    I know for me it was so many things. Being able to go on rides, go swimming and not feel ashamed at the way i look. Even little things like wearing a singlet. The list goes on.

    I really didn't think much about this when I first started losing weight at all, but today something happened that put it all into perspective. I was asked to model some cocktail dresses and jewelry for a fashion awards show that is on Wednesday night. I went for the fitting this afternoon.

    First, two years ago no one would have asked me to do such a thing. Second, when I walked in and met the the woman who would be styling me, she said, "You're what, a 4 or 6?" SCORE!

    In my opinion, pear shape is the best shape, especially if you gain/lose weight. I find that body shape bounces back so much better. And, big butts are always in style. ;)

    I want to no longer be in "plus size" clothing.

    I look forward to feeling comfortable enough in my body to stop fidgeting. People comment on it.
