    Great topic.

    I used to water ski a lot. I want to water ski with my kids.

    I want to be able to stuff a basketball again.

    It will take time, but I'll get there. 90 lbs gone and a ways to go. That's ok... I made the mess, I'll clean it up.

    To feel confident enough to move forward in my relationship with my boyfriend, when the time is right.

    To fit into a size 14 or 12 pair of jeans again

    To complete a Race for Life 5K

    Wear a dress on Valentines Day (if things keep going well with my boyfriend)

    Wear a dress to my graduation in July.

    Incidentally, I have a lovely boyfriend, who when I told him my intentions to lose weight said, "I'm fully behind you in whatever you choose to do, but can I just say, I love you just as you are." That made me smile but I know I need to do something about my size.

    Mine is to wear a large shirt (which I now do) and have a 36" waist. I'm currently wearing a 38 so I'm almost there. My holiday goal is to weigh the same on January 1st as I did on December 1st. We'll see how that goes lol.

    I have no scale goal. (Admittedly I do have a long term body fat percentage goal of 18-20%. In a year maybe I'll go get a dexa scan or whatever it's called...)

    My goal: Deadlift 150% of my body weight (225lbs)
    (Currently lifting 165lbs)

    I have a skinny outfit squired away on my closet. When I can fit it, I'll know I've made my goal. My other goal is to be in a bikini by June 2012. That requires a toned physique and a flat stomach (defined abs optional).
  • 1) For the clothes in my closet to fit me again.
    2) For my bikinis to look good on me again (Yes I'm "old" but they looked good a few years ago, so why the heck not. Look at Helen Mirren: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1036785/What-men-REALLY-think--Helen-Mirren-bikini-62.html

    I want my hip bones back! And my knees to stop hurting when I climb stairs :ohwell:

    Me too x
  • I would like to see my abs once in my life. I am an apple shape and I've never been so lean in my life that I could actually see (even roughly) the shape of my abs. I would love that.

    Same here. Just once ;)
