I can't wait for:

1. Compliments again. Even though I get embarrassed, I LIKE hearing them but need to accept them better. I MISS hearing them!

2. Jeans to fit better.

3. LIKE clothes shopping again.

4. For Wii Fit to be nicer to me :explode:

5. To just simply FEEL better about myself.

6. Possibly get a "goal" tattoo (something w/ Persevere/star/key idea as an honor to making it back to my goal).

7. An IPod (as a treat for myself)

8. A Pandora Bracelet (as a treat for myself).

9. To get rid of my baby/muffin top! :mad:

WHAT ARE YOURS?

    Love your "I can't wait fors"!

    Be forewarned - Pandora bracelets become an addiction :) I have 2 and cannot stop buying beads!!

    I can't wait to be feel really comfortable in my skin again.( I'm getting there.) And I can't wait to wear the style of clothes I've been wishing I could wear for the past 2 years.

    1. A flat stomach
    2. Having my top and bottom be the same size (see #1 again).
    3. My belly button to look normal again (see #1 again).
    4. Running like I used to.
    5. Creating new goals that acutally focus on fitness and how I feel instead of all of them being about how I look.

    My favorites (reached my goal) are that my family is proud of me, compliments, clothes shopping, wearing a size 4, 6 or 8 jean depending on the brand, that I feel good and I'm fit and I like my body! I can't believe all the comments about how much I've lost and a lot of people ask me how I've done it because I look healthy not starved!

    Good luck!!!

    OMG..That is sooooo sweet to say about your wife! :heart:

    OH..another one of mine is to be in the BEST shape I can be by the time I am 40 (10/31/2011). Especially after 3 kids!

    Waiting for the Ipod is b/c I already have an MP3 player that works fine. But once that one dies...an Ipod it will be!

    It's the truth. She's lost 70 pounds. She looks like Jessica Rabbit with a little tummy - and all she can see is the tummy.

    1. ABS. Actually, I will take just one ab. As long as I have a little muscle definition in my tummy, I will be happy, and it will be a first.
    2. Hiking Mount tallac. It is the highest peak in the Tahoe basin, and I am definately going ot conquer it as soon as the snow melts!

    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!!!!!!!
