So I just figured out what I'm going to get myself when I reach my goal weight (140-145). A hot pair of THESE BABIES.

OH MAN.

Does anybody else skate? Is it a good workout? I've got to kind of learn, first. But that will be easier when I'm fit, right? Pahaha.

  • Doesn't skating work your butt and upper thighs? Moving in any way is always good! And those are just so hot... where did you find them?!

    DANG, those are pretty sweet :) I haven't skated in a while. Living in AZ I don't want to be out side too much. Especially in the summer. but I would love it if I could go out and skate.... especially if I had these :D haha. Congrats on the progress! Have fun!
  • skating is super fun! i used to be friends with a bunch of derby girls who would take me. awesome workout as well :)

    What a good choice for an ultimate goal reward for yourself! I used to rollerskate a lot when I was younger. It wasn'f tancy, but it sure was a workout. Good luck in your journey, and I hope you get to your goal so you can have those. They are awesome!

    Oh my goodness, I'm in love!

    I had a feeling you would be!! Haha!

    They are an online purchase at Urban Outfitters. Once you see the price you will see why I have to wait!! Haha. 300 dollars. @_@

    BUT THEY ARE SO HOT. I just want to hug them and squeeze them and ah. Maybe along the way to my goal, I'll buy myself elbow pads and knee pads and a helmet. Inspiration! Because also, I have none of those goodies. So. There's that. But I want them soo badly!

    those are awesome. In high school I skated all the time, I think i still have my skates. I should totally pull them out and give skating a try.

    Best of luck reaching your goal. enjoy skating your way thin!

    Those are gorgeous, and I'm sure skating is a great work out. Wish I could use skates like those, but I just decided to stick to inline skates when I fell hard using roller blades.

    those are pretty damn awesome (and normally I avoid pink like it's out to get me). I would totally rock a pair of those and some cute high waisted shorts at a roller rink. :smile:

    I love those! I used to skate in high school a lot, and it is a great (and fun) workout. I plan on starting again when DS gets a little older.

    Damn I used to skate and rollerblade religiously....Now, at my age, that just seems like a long way down. Too much potential for broken hips and stuff....:grumble: :noway:

    Oh man don't tempt me!! Wouldn't that be awesome!! I'd have to grow some serious balls to join the derby ranks of BAMF, that's for sure.

    I used to skate every Saturday as a kid. My friend's dad owned the roller rink. You would think it lame but we used to tie colored pom- poms on our skates. Pretty cool back then. (I'm 55) WoW pink Skates!!!!!!!!! My shoe size changed as I lost weight so I'd wait before I spent the money.Maybe I should add rollerskating in pink skates to my bucket list lol
