    I can't say "AGAIN" because I don't ever remember being anything but overweight .. but here it goes ..

    1) To go on my favorite ride at Lagoon (those in Utah know what I'm talking about)

    2) To go to the swimming pool and not feel like a whale

    3) To be able to run after my daughter when she goes off, when we are trying to go to the house instead of screaming at my husband to go get her ..

    4) To make sure my kids are NEVER embarrased by me (that hasn't happend yet thank goodness)

    5) To look in the mirror and see what I feel (i liked that one)

    6) To make my husband see it can be done, and lose weight himself

    7) To be able to go to the store and buy anything I want

    8) To not lose my breath and nearly pass out walking for 10 minutes

    9) To not lose my breath coming up the stairs

    10) To finally snub my nose at my sister, and when she wants to hang out because I am skinny .. and say where were you when I was fat?

    I don't know why, but I was extremely nervous typing this .. maybe because they all seem like such far fetched unrealistic goals .. that I will never be able to accomplish ..

    I hope I can!!!!!!!

    I can't wait for...

    1. The day that I actually looking forward to swimsuit shopping
    2. The ability to swap clothes with my 14 year old daughter!
    3. The day that I don't hide from someone trying to take my picture!
    4. The day I buy clothes in bold colors instead of black!
    5. The day that I can tell myself, "look how far you've come!" instead of "look how far you've let yourself go!"

    Good idea, I think we all find this as more of a motivation.

    I can't wait for:
    1. My husband to get the georgous wife he deserves.
    2. Muscles showing on my arms
    3. Muscles showing thru my clothes:)
    4. Abs that I thought were never gonna happen
    5. Compliments from all the people here at work
    6. To run into someone from high school that was mean to me cuz I was big, and me look better than them
    7. To have a sexy bikini that I look good in
    8. To buy cute clothes that are a smaller size
    9. For my family to be proud of me
    10. To know that I did it! I actually did something I never thought I could!

    I can't wait for my self esteem to go back
    to feel pretty again
    to actually get asked out again (and not by someone who is old enough to be my father)

    I can't wait to have the strength to engage in recreational activities without being utterly destroyed for the rest of the day.

    I can't wait for my sense of self to catch up with my actual self: I mentally am still 20 pounds heavier....

    I can't wait for my wedding ring to fit without creating sausage finger.... I'm still 7 pounds above my wedding weight (11 years ago), but I think it's all in my hands.... okay, some of it's in the @ss...

    I'm enthusiastically working toward dropping the next bunch of weight...I can't wait to hit the "in five weeks" target that popped up today....

    I can't wait to be back in my single digit pants. I only had one pair, but haven't been able to wear them for a very long time... They've not been fashionable for a very long time, but I'd wear those large wale cords with a grin...

    I can't wait till....

    1) I am able to shop when I visit my parents (They live in a different country, and I see such cute clothes but can never buy them :( )
    2) I am able to buy clothes because I like them, not because I just fit into them. To actually have a choice.
    3) To be healthy.
    4) My future MIL compliments on how much I have lost. (Last time when I lost a few kilos all she said was that my tummy is still sticking out :explode: )
    5) I don't look the oldest in my friends circle (Actually I am the youngest and look older because oh my height and weight)
    6) I look good in my pictures... Then I might do a whole photo shoot :laugh:
    7) I finally can see how I look thin... have never ever been thin in my whole adult life :( I was skinny when I was a kid, and my mom used to be worried that I don gain weight.. how ironic
    8) I finally can wear off shoulder dresses and not get embarrassed!

    2. To feel sexy again
    3. To look great in my clothes again.
    4. To shut my sister up when she makes snide comments even though she is not thin herself. She's lost some weight but she could stand to lose a lot more!!! :laugh:
