    I want to be my own dress-up doll when I go clothes shopping. Most of my shopping gals are skinnier than I so I pick outfits and ask them to try them on to see what they look like. I want to be able to pick out the outfit and try it on for myself.

    Ice skate and ride my bike comfortably! And be able to quit worrying about getting into an airplane seat.

    I too want to wear boots that can do up comfortably over my calves.
    I want to be able to go shopping & find something (clothing) without getting depressed when I look in the dressing room mirror.
    I also would love to run, but it's something I've never enjoyed (even when not overweight) so I won't hold my breath for that one, lol.

    Basically I just want to be able to like myself a little bit.

    Oh my - where do I start...

    Tuck a shirt into my jeans and not have to put on a sweatshirt to hide the overhang
    Be fit before I'm 50
    Run with my grandkids and not have to take a break
    Be able to touch my knees to my chest without my gut getting in the way
    Get on and off my horses without feeling like I'm uncoordinated because I'm fat
    Dance with my hubby all night and not be exhausted the next day
    Go to a party or wedding and not have get depressed trying to find a dress (tent) to cover up the rolls
    Wear tank tops and jeans when we are out on the motorcycles

    There's a few for starters.....:laugh:

    I want to be able to wear BOOTS so stupid I know but I want to wear dang boots (not cowboy boots)

    That's not stupid! It is YOUR reason. You do what you need to do for whatever reason matters to you!

    When I was overweight, I always said I wanted to go roller skating again! I lost the weight, but haven't done it. Done a ton of other things though, that I never would have been able to do with that extra 149 pounds I was carrying!! (Hike mountains, run a 5K, Zumba and Spin Class, wear cute clothes, etc).

    Also, when I was overweight, I never would have left my abusive relationship. Because I lost the weight, I gained the confidence to LEAVE!!

    Run- I want to run so bad I can taste it. I've never been a good runner, even when I was a kid. I want to wake up early, put on my shoes and hear nothing but the flip flop of my sneakers on the road. Even if I have to run like a penguin- it would be a miracle.

    I'd also like to never have to be in a wheelchair again- but that's more of a medical wish.

    So if anyone out there can run- run a mile for me please! I'll be running with you soon :D

    It might sound silly, but my goal is to be able to play in and on bouncy houses with my son before he gets to old for them. :-) And I'd love to go spelunking at Mammoth Cave! :-)

    I want to do the ultimate ninja warrior course. Or freerunning in general. I'm highly, highly uncoordinated though, so we'll see how that goes...

    Run and wear cute clothes instead of baggy clothes to hide my fat.
