    Hang my head up high no matter where I go/what I wear/who I meet/what I'm doing...

    While I've never been overweight, I struggle with binge eating and overeating which has caused many bouts of rapid weight gains and bloating looks the worst. ):

    Worn a swimsuit I actually felt comfortable/pretty/confident in.

    Been confident enough to look people in the eyes.

    Try and have a baby. We have been thinking about it for a while, and I don't want to do it when I am over weight because of all the problems. I not severly over weight, but it still scares me. So When I get down to almost my goal--I wanna get fat with a baby in my belly :)

    -stop avoiding the camera and actually stand confidently in the front!
    - believe all the positive things my amazing husband says to me.
    - get down to a healthy weight so insurance will cover part of my tummy tuck. I have split abs and excessive loose skin from delivering full term twins. Maybe I won't want one but I at least want the option.

    I look forward to getting out of the pool and not immediately feeling like I have to wrap a towel around me.
    I feel the exact same way :-/

    I've never been able to wear a bikini... not sure I ever will because of my stretch marks even if I felt fit enough to! :sad:

    But something I can accomplish now that I never could while overweight -- Running a 5k!

    Wore a bikini (and I live in San Diego)

    or a mini skirt

    or a dress

    and never asked out the guy I was completely in to because how could he possibly ever like someone that looks like me.

    I have always wanted to wear skinny jeans with a simple tank-top but never did because of my big fat arms -_- I'm still scared and self-consious of it
    :cry:

    Haven't worn single digits since before the dawn of time.

    Haven't worn a bikini since my age was in the single digits.

    Haven't worn anything more than an inch above the knee in public.

    Haven't bought/ worn the "sexy" bra and panty sets that can't handle my DD's.

    Oh, there are so many more.

    "Haven't bought/ worn the "sexy" bra and panty sets that can't handle my DD's."

    THIS! It's like they make the lingerie bigger but they forget to add more support!

    Wear a regular bathing suit. I will NEVER put on a bikini, even if my body looked good enough. But I want to be able to wear a bathing suit in public and not have to have a cover up on the ENTIRE time because I hate all the stares I get because of my size. I know that's not going to happen this summer, but by next summer I want to be ROCKIN' in whatever I wear!! LOL
