How exciting will it be to try on clothes you never thought you could wear? That thought keeps me going :)

    totally! or clothes you used to wear. or clothes that you have but don't wear because you're worried you look stupid in them :laugh: I hung on to some of my clothes. I should be able to fit my skinny person jeans about 15 lb before goal weight, but I want those bloody things LOOSE!

    the second I reach ~my goal weight, I'm putting on a sleeveless knee length (OR SHORTER?!?!) cocktail dress. even if it's just to hang out in. I DON'T CARE.

    It's pretty awesome. Here's a pic of me in my "goal weight pants":

    I'm still five pounds from my goal weight and sooo much smaller than I thought I'd be. Expensive, but also kind of fun. :smile:

    About 6 years ago i went to the Surf store and brought all these awesome size 32-34 board shorts and Tank Tops to give me motivation.

    I got down to size 36 and went off the diet. ARRRRGGGHHHHH!

    Still have them and im a size 42 :(

    I pulled them out 2 days ago to remind me how much i really want to wear them.

    Next Summer! Next Summer!

    My goal is rather strange. When I was in my twenties, I was in a car accident and taken to the ED for evaluation of a head injury (I was OK). The attending doctor left me alone with my chart and the snoop that I am, I opened to my history and physical. The admitting doctor had written, "Pt is a thin, well muscled woman......" I want to hear that for the rest of my life!!!

    Ehhh...once I reach my goal weight, I get to look forward to cramming 2500-3000 calories into myself per day, and lifting 9-10 times per week. I have a feeling that it's going to be painful, so I am not in too much of a hurry to get there. ;)

    You know what's fun? Eating my words. (And the food. I like eating the food!)

    I kept this one particularly hideous pair of jeans that I wore in high school, just because they were really obnoxious and I'm a touch of a hoarder. (And everyone comes to me for last minute Halloween costumes!) I got the jeans in 1986, when I was 14 years old and weighed about 110 pounds.

    I had a status on FB one time (maybe 3-4 years ago) about the jeans (I called them the Puke Pants... they looked like psychedelic vomit), and how I really should get rid of them because I wasn't ever going to be able to wear them, and how I would have to get some kind of horrible illness to ever be 110 pounds again.

    Well, I was right in one regard. I'm NEVER going to be 110 pounds again. I'm about 25 pounds above that now. But those Puke Pants? I can wear them.

    Not sure if I ever WILL wear them, but I CAN!

    It will be very exciting. I am hoping that I will be able to put off buying any new clothes until I am at my goal weight, which I am hoping will boot me out of the plus size section into the misses section. I weigh around 215 lbs now and my goal weight is 170 lbs. I am 5'8 with a large frame, so I hope that 170 lbs is not to low for me.

    I'm gonna buy new clothes and I'm excited for that, but what really keeps me going is I'm gonna get myself another tattoo when I reach my goal weight.
