    I want a defined jaw line again and thinner arms (I store my weight in my face and arms :( of course.)

    I'm looking forward to feeling good in tank tops and shorts this summer. And maybe even exercising outdoors in shorts one day.

    Not shying away from photos! The clothes, I'm going to buy a really nice size 8 dress, and have it as a constant reminder, and i won't have to hide a belly under it! Summer I hope to have lost most if not all the weight and wear a nice bikini. MOST of all, not get that 'right if i was trimmer i'd buy/wear that' or 'if i was trimmer i'd do that' :)

    size 8 still = a belly for me. Darn genetics.

    I think my feet grew 1/2 size with fat. I want to get a pair of gasolina boots, and know they'll always fit. Also- not feeling non-bra-covered jiggle parts jiggle when I'm jumping around during a workout.

    putting it back on
  • Being able to wear a cute skirt, pretty blouse and my cowboy boots without looking disproportionate !
    Also, knowing that I made a huge change in myself for the better!

    I'm ready to be able to walk around the house nude and have a face-off with the mirror and not be afraid of what I see. Mmm.

    NOT being asked when I'm due or being congratulated on my pregnancy (which I have never and will never have)!:explode:

    Getting back to some serious miles on my bicycle. Looking slim in in 34" pants again...
  • - Buying clothes that I like and having them look nice on me
    - Pursuing a singing career with confidence
    - Making my formell schoolmates jealous (I know)
    - Looking and feeling sexy

    I wanna see my abs, I know they are there, I just have never seen them before
  • I have come back today after sliding down the slippery slope of lifes distractions. However, i had this thought today whilst out in the car on the way to work. Nearly 20 years ago I had a fun filled time with a gorgeous man that i felt and looked fabulous during that time. We went our seperate ways due to circumstances but we reamained friends until i moved away, if i bump into him again tomorrow, how would i feel about myself? Well, self esteem is rock bottom and i think i would run for the hills never to be seen again. If i feel that bad about being seen now, how am i supppose to look forward to meeting anybody new and enjoying life? I cant turn back time and be the exact same person i was then, but i can change the size i am and the way my size makes me feel now. Onwards and upwards!

    I have a pair of Doc Martens boots and cannot wait until they'll fit over my legs!

    this is a great question! i'm looking forward to being able to wear shorts this summer (and the other countless clothes i'll be able to finally wear like tank tops!), to being a good example to my family and friends, and to having great conversations about nutrition without feeling like a heel.

    I can't wait to go SHOPPING!! :)
    Also, I want my hubby and I to get a bike and kiddy trailer and go biking with our 4 kiddos this summer - starting a family heritage of all around active lifestyle.
    Then, I also want to play baseball this summer, I did as a teen, and LOVED it and I think it would be an awesome thing to do for this mom of 4 to get out of the house every once and a while
    hmm what else? oh ya, I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to prove to my mother-in-law that a person can lose the weight and KEEP it off WITHOUT Isagenix!! lol that's a burning one in me right now! :)

    im reminded of the proactive commercial where the girl is talking about putting on a cute dress and looking sexy... i wanna do that with a smaller me:)
  • being able to walk into any store and buy any of the clothes iwant. i hate having to look at tags and realize that it doesn't go up to my size.
  • A new wardrobe and most importantly self esteem!!

    I'm looking forward to looking normal for a change. I also want to replace my 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a new car. A car that is MUCH easier on gas than my guzzler.

    liking these all very much!
  • Being the thin one again....
    Fitting in several pairs of jeans I had when I was 9st.
    2 dresses in an 8 that I couldnt part with and promised myself Ill one day fit again.
    Having people compliment me on my legs and bum again, used to get a lot of that.
    Having my bf fancy me again. That one sounds harsh, I know he loves me, he says he fancies me, I want to see that "WANT" in his eyes again.
    Good, healthy example to my 15y/o daughter who is body crazy - to show her how to be slim AND healthy, rather than starving myself which is what she thinks is the only solution to stay in shape.
    Strength, I have wanted to be stronger for a long time.
  • oh and the one that gets me most - there is a mirror in our local, that when youre sat at the bar (now drinking diet coke instead of beer) you have a full view of yourself sitting on a stool. I always pretend its the mirror that makes me look overweight, but I know it isnt as I see other people there who look perfectly fine. I want my chins and belly to not be in that reflection any more!!!
  • Feeling proud of the person I see in the mirror for being healthy, fit and looking good. :D
