When you reach your goal (whatever that is...) what are you looking forward to the most?

I'm most looking forward to:

4. Wearing clothes that are cute!
3. Feeling comfortable in a swimsuit....Bikini?? --- Should be to goal weight by Spring Break!
2. Seeing how I look at a healthy weight.

Last, but certainly not least....

1. No longer feeling like a skinny girl in a "fat suit"!

How about you?

    The thing I look forward to most is when I get into the 130lb range. I did it after my first child but struggled to stay there. Oh and for when my husband to get home from deployment and see how hard I have worked during the year he was gone.

    Enjoying shopping and buying "regular" clothes. I am 5'0 and 183 and finding plus-sized petite clothes is hard. Finding CUTE plus-sized petite clothes is next to impossible.

    to be able to look like a grown-up. I wanna be able to wear nice cute summer dresses in the summer with my daughter. I cant do that now because of the chaffing. I wanna look as nice as my kids always look. I actually HATE wearing jeans anymore. I wear them so much and they are so hot in the summer. I wanna be a girl again. Like before i had kids. I didnt wear dresses as much but Now that I cant I really want to. I also want to wear cute shoes lol

    Regular sized clothing.
    Feeling secure and comfortable with myself.
    Not being awkward in social settings because i'm embarrassed about my weight.
    Knowing that I set a goal and made it (doing it the right way)

    Being able to shop in any store, not just the plus size stores, and being able to go to a concert or sporting event without having to squeeze into a tiny seat and be uncomfortable all night.

    Walking into the mall and buying tons of stuff in my size, versus spending 30 minutes in the dressing room trying on 40 articles and coming out with 1 or 2.

    Strutting around naked :tongue:

    I want my husband to get back from deployment in January and be shocked an amazed at my transformation. I want to be able to wear a cute/sexy dress to pick him up at the airport... that would be GREAT. :wink:

    I look forward to being able to put on anything in my closet and not keep changing until something makes me look smaller....since i'll already be slim :) I also look forward to being comfortable with myself, whether that's out with friends, at home, or doing fun activities including wearing a swimsuit and boating with friends.

    And last but most important, I look forward to looking into the mirror and being PROUD OF MYSELF. Knowing that I put in the hard work and I look great because of it. I have alot of friends that are just naturally small and don't work out at all, but that's not earned. Mine will be earned :)

    Fitting into my tight clothes.
    Buying new clothes from the regular department instead of the plus size area!
    Buying a really great pair of jeans.

    Feeling confident about the way I look and feel.

    HMMM

    Well cute clothes would be nice that don't look like they would fit a cow..lol

    But more importantly to feel good everyday when I get up, not only physically but mentally too. I am already not having the headaches that I used to have. I want my back, and legs to not hurt after only walking for a short time. Also even after only losing 10 lbs my clothes are a bittle bigger and I feel good about the fact that I have already accomplished so much.

    To fit into my regular clothes. I recently gained so much weight I had to buy all new work clothes, but couldnt afford to buy regular clothes after that so now I have either PJ's or dress clothes and nothing else. Even when I go to the grocery store when it's 90 degrees outside, or go places on the weekend I look like I'm going to work in all dress up clothes. UGH!!!

    I'm gonna get there, you wait and see ;) We all are.

    My ultimate goal is to feel less self-conscious. My husband is an actor here in L.A. and so a lot of his friends are really good looking. I'm tired of feeling like the chubby frumpy girl around these people. I know it's something I'll need to work out in my own head no matter what weight I'm at but I'd really like to be down at least where I used to be when I was in better shape. There was a point a couple years ago when I could get on a treadmill and run and not feel parts of me jiggle that shouldn't jiggle.

    Next summer climb Mt Taranaki (on my doorstep) with my son and enjoy it rather than hating every moment (it is a very steep gut-buster).

    Do 4 sets of chin-ups with no counter-weight. (Just to be able to say, "I probably could never do that in my life before, but now in my fifties I can").

    See my children wanting to be fit and healthy for life. Both kids are now at uni (home at moment for break between semesters), my daughter is now addicted to the gym and today my son is going to the gym with me (my boxing day with a trainer and my son can have a shot too). He has a real fear of gyms because he is (get this) only 51 kg at 18 years of age. He's terrified of being a weedy runt amongst fitness freaks. Today he might overcome that!

    "I'm taking a moment just imaginin' that I'm dancin' with you. I'm your pole and all you're wearing is your shoes." Great song and great thing to look forward to.

    Have you heard the Jason Mraz/Ingrid Michaelson singing "You and I?" It's really good. Or Ingrid Michaelson "The Way I Am?" Also really good. Nothing to do with weight loss motivation necessarily, I just LOVE music and sharing favorite songs.

    The thing I'm looking forward to the most is fitting in with my family. Both of my parents and my sisters are skinny/slim. I've always been chubby and I would love to not look like the odd man out in our family photos.

    I want to see what I look like at a healthy weight. My sister says that she doesn't think I'll look like me anymore. :ohwell:

    I want to be able to feel comfortable...period. Just comfortable.

    I want to run a marathon.
