    Im not a dreamer but 2 years ago i lost 1stone & spent most of that summer holidays Out & About with the kids & I also felt fantastic.......Now ive put that stone back on & a bit more & am dreading the summer hols....

    Not sure how much a "stone" is in pounds, but it is possible to lose again. Every day I look at my old "fat" picture and know that I will never go back. I I lost my father just a few weeks ago, he was only 54. Life is too short to not enjoy the hell out of it.
    I am so very, very sorry for your loss! Keep up the great work! My dream is to be sexy and to get looks like "she looks good" instead of ohh "she is fat" lol

    - To look like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson!
    - To be a professional artist.
    - To be a tattoo artist.
    - To give my wife the chills when she sees me with my shirt off!!!!

    I dont know how to help with the first one! You are on your own!

    Are you already an amature artist? Do you need to take classes? WHat will it take to get there?

    Giving your wife chills may be possible if you figure out the Rock dream!

    Thanks for asking Dave. Regarding #1 & #4, hopefully I am on my way there. I'm trying to eat clean and am killing myself every day in my workouts. I'm down 46 pounds so far since January.

    Regarding #2, I guess you could say I am an amateur artist. I love drawing/painting. I have many of my own pieces hanging up in the house and have given many away as gifts. I've never had an art showing or anything. Right now I am trying to build up a collection of pieces (working on them in my spare time). Eventually I would like to have prints made and try to sell them at local art stores, fairs, etc.

    As far as the tattoo artist dream, I have kinda chalked that one up as a fantasy. At 41 and with family obligations, quitting my job to do an apprenticeship isn't really an option. And, it takes years to learn. Unfortunately, skill with a pencil/brush does not always translate to skill in tattooing.

    Thanks again for asking! I think it is really cool that you didn't just ask what peoples' dreams are. You seem genuinely interested in them! Have a great weekend man.

    I sure wish I had artistic ability. I think my stick figures have scoliosis. I just never got any better then coloring in books with crayons. We have an awesome art fair where I live every year, a couple hundred booths of local artists. Its a really neat thing.

    Tattooing is in fact a skilled trade. I know how you feel about giving up a job to take an internship.....It just isnt possible in so many cases. Especially when kids are involved.

    Hope all goes well for you. Get some camping in or something!

    My dream is to finally become that fit person I always knew I was meant to be. My husband and I want to go on our honeymoon in 2014(finally) when he gets back from Korea and I would love to be able to wear a two piece for the first time in my life.

    Med School. Putting my big brain towards something good. Never been extremely talented without studying sciences but this I am going to make happen within the next couple years.

    Up in the air still, but BFF and I are looking into a week in Mexico after his grad next year. And I'm going to be on that beach. in a bikini. and guys will stare.

    Where are you wanting to attending Med school? What specialty? Staring guys is always a good goal. You can get there for sure. Keep up the workouts and eating well and you will rock that bikini!

    my dream is to buy a house abroad- I love spain but its not in good place at the moment.

    The boyfriend however doesnt share my dream... any of them :S

    Get a new boyfriend. Life is too short to not make dreams and memories with those we love. If he cant share your dreams you are settling. Never settle!

    My dream is to play the role of Archibald Craven in the musical, The Secret Garden. I have more than enough talent to vocally pull it off, and plenty of stage experience to make it wonderful. All I need now, is a body that won't sway the director away from casting me in the role. There is a VERY good chance that this show will be in the 2013-2014 line-up at a local community theatre guild I'm a member of, which gives me at least one more year to get into suitable shape for auditions.

    I'll know by October if the show will be in the 2013-2014 line-up. If it gets set back another year, that will just give me extra time to get my body in even better shape!

    I'd love to play Martha! Let's do an all MFP cast, yes? :flowerforyou: :laugh:
