    Worn a bikini.

    Run 5k.

    Both of which I am hoping to do one day.

    Plenty of 5Ks where that is not only acceptable but encouraged.

    I want to try indoor sky diving. There is a weight limit that I am at least 50 lbs over still.

    I love everyones comments!!!

    Mine is so close to my heart- and I am close but scared. I loved to roller skate as a kid, I did it until I was about 20, and I was really good, and really fast. Bought in line skates but never liked them. But a year ago, I bought some skates- beautiful!! They are in my closet.........taunting me!! The one fear I have constantly is injury. I am still on my weight loss journey, and I teach fitness classes now- if I get hurt I am out of commission for teaching- and I can't let that happen. So, I have a goal, to hit the goal weight I want to be at by January- and get those skates on and start practicing again............and hopefully incorporating this into my routine as I love it so much!!

    Run a mile. Do a pull up. Shop in a regular size women's clothing department.

    Finish college. I'm terrified of facing the humiliation of not being able to fit into a desk or worse breaking it. My stupid weight has held me back from so many things. I'm over it

    @lozadee That's so sad. You should like something about yourself even if you are overweight.

    I have never been carried around by a guy. I want a guy to pick me up and carry me to the bedroom and lay me down gently. I figure I have about 100 pounds to go unless Paul Bunyan is available!

    aww. I like this one. Because when I was bigger, I felt that too. I have achieved my goal now, and am working on going from "thin" to "athletic" (I want to see a 6 pack in the mirror)....but I just have to say, the first time my SON gave me a piggy back, I felt soooo stoked...not just that I was thin enough, but also that he was strong enough.

    Your time will come, my friend. For a long time i really genuinely believed I would never be my skinnier version again.... but I blew my skinnier version out of the water and achieved goals I have never achieved before. Including doing chin ups, wearing size 4 clothes (my "skinny" jeans most of my life were size 11's, and when I was "big" it was a lot bigger than size 11's, my goal was to get to size 11's).

    Anyways, Y'all GOT THIS!

    Liked myself
    This, and see why others like me... or even wish to befriend me. So I stayed single (doesn't help those I showed my picture to, flee. As if escaping Godzilla's reign of Japan )... Pathetic, I know

    2 chicks at the same time

    I am sure you could hire them now- but most women don't like to be called chicks- and I am sure most don't fantasize about sharing with someone unless they are in the professional industry

    Run a 10k or half marathon. A half marathon still seems impossible at this point.

    I've never worn a bikini either. And may never get to now that I have stretch marks and saggy/stretched out skin (not fat) from pregnancy. :(

    It's a quote from the cult film Office Space, where he was asked what he would like to do if he could do anything in the world.

    Was hoping to make people smile, not cause offence.

    I have always walked around worrying people were looking at my mid-section trying to figure out if I was pregnant or just overweight and I really hate that feeling. I also never wear shirts that fit- winter is the best because I can hide behind a sweatshirt so Id love to be able to wear a cute form fitting sweater :-)

    Skydiving

    I'm under the weight limit, but I'm only 4'10" and I'm sure that I'm bigger around that many people who are over the weight limit so I don't dare try for fear the harness/parachute won't fit.

    Wearing a two piece without covering up the top or bottom half. All through childhood I wore tee-shirts then I upgraded to a bikini top but wore shorts. And those were my good years.

    I'd like to wear a two piece bathing suit without a cover up.

    I know for actual skydiving they're extremely lenient about the weight limit (around where I live, anyway), so you might want to look into it!

    It will fit. I went when I was around 245lbs and all was fine.
