Ok, so I know everyone has the usual reasons for wanting to lose weight, be healthy, play with my kids, fit in a bikini blah blah blah... But I was wondering if anyone had any other good things about being slimmer?

It hit me earlier that I would have like half the surface area to shave/wax/epilate! Thank god!!

    I have several things I am looking forward to...shopping in a normal person store, wearing a size 10 that I have had hanging in my closet for 2 years, doing a lingerie photo shoot without looking totally disgusting, being able to sing high notes again without being winded, dancing in public without looking like a fat slob, and much more.

    Well I'm hoping to lose another 20lbs by my family Reunion but I'd be happy with just another 10-15lbs if that's all I can lose. It's in late September. I'm looking forward to that, most of them haven't seen me since I was 250lbs, so I have something to really show off already, but I'd love to be beyond this.

    It will be a definite confidence booster. I know people say not to worry about how others look at you but you know what they are thinking. I would love for them to look at me for the opposite reason.

    To walk into a shoe store and try on / buy a pair of tall boots (Instead of ordering wide calf ones from a specialty place online).

    Oh man, that's a great one! I love boots, but own none. So sad.

    To join the ARMY and persue my dream of being in the medical field (w/o having college loans). To be more confident, to Be able to stay healthy, to walk up my tier stairs at work without having to take a huge breath at the top. To wear the sixe 8 jeans I have hanging on my wall.....
    Whatever your goal is,.....keep doing what your all doing.

    I am looking forward to wearing a swimsuit with a normal bottom, maybe a boy short cut rather than the huge man trunks I wear now to hide my enormous bum and and gigantic wobbly thighs. The man shorts go to my knees!

    A tummy up to the task of displaying a belly button ring.
    150 crunches today . . . Plus oblique work . . . I have 100 pounds to go before I think the tummy will be up to the task.

    I want to go skydiving; right now I am too large to do it. Being able to shop anywhere and having less surface area to maintain are also good bonuses.
