Thought this would be a fun little post to hear about what you want to do/wear/see, etc. once you hit you goal weight! Losing the weight is the easy part, it's keeping it OFF is the hard part, and reminding yourself everyday WHY you want to lose the weight in the first place will make it that much easier to keep it off for the rest of your life. :) Find that motivation and that drive within you, because once you unleash the fire there is no stopping you!

    Being rather decadent, I am going to a particular Cafe known for their homemade desserts and purchase the sampler platter. Having reached goal and in the maintenance phase, this EVENT is slated for Wed. August 4th along with the team of 6 women who were my personal encouragers. Given that I have pretty much given up white flour and white sugar, I imagine that the desserts are going to be really TOO sweet for me now, so not worried about over indulging, especially since I am sharing and celebrating with my support team!!!!

    When I get to my goal weight I am going to go dancing. I am also going to pull out my old Drill Team T-shirt and wear it.

    I love to dance; however, I feel like when I go that people are staring at me wondering why a big girl thinks that she ought to be on the floor.

    I actually would like to go back to teaching dance classes again.

    I have always wanted a bettie page dress, you know I seen one on sale for 25 dollars online!! but did not buy is because it would never fit me.. That's what I thought, but some day I will be able to wear one of those dresses ;) Too bad I am soo short though it would prob not "hug' my body right :sad: :tongue:

    wish I could find some pin up style dresses for shorties ;)

    Create a new goal so I do not lose track and fall back in the same habits I did before.

    I actually surpassed the big goal I set for myself in the beginning and have set others.

    I don't want to get complacent.

    I reached my goal weight and I'm trying to maintain. It is more difficult but hopefully I can do it for the REST of my life. I have bought many new clothes in sizes I NEVER thought I'd ever be in again! I have a swimming suit that is a LOT smaller than my old one. I now love to shop for clothes which I used to hate. I get to go with my daughter and daughters-in-law and have fun buying clothes along side of them instead of in the old fat lady section! I enjoy exercising and I'm not afraid to get out and go. I will have the energy to play with my grandbabies. I have one and two on the way!!! My kids and husband are proud of me and I can feel pretty instead of fat and ugly! I tried on 2 pairs of pants that I wore about 15 years ago and they fit and that was a few pounds ago. I did try on a couple of other pants that I was way skinny and looked good in when I was in my twenties and they didn't fit but no big deal. I'm not in my twenties anymore and I weigh less than I ever thought I would again!

    I LOVE LOVE being thin even though I really need to tone up and hopefully the extra skin will shrink. I still love food so it is still a battle, especially with the sugar and Dr. Pepper but it is definitely worth it! Keep working until you get there and enjoy your success when you do!!!

    I know!! The styles are so great right now with the button up shirt dresses and old fashioned sundresses, I just wish I could squeeze into one! And no worries! Some of the best pinup girls were a little on the petite side ;). I'm more concerned that those dresses are just hugging my 5'7" frame a little tooo tightly right now, I'll just have to survive with my gorgeous little pencil skirt for the moment :D Mae West is so my girl ;)

    I think NOT!

    Actually, I like Texas and Oklahoma more than Notre Dame, USC, UCLA, Ohio State & Penn State but that ain't saying much! :)

    Check out toofastonline.com and catslikeus.com...Ya'll need to remember that pin ups were curvacious, sexy, thick women...they weren't the heroin sheik that we all see these days. Betty Page, Marilyn Monroe...these girls had boobs hips and thighs that could rock any mans world. And PS, if you're short (5'2 here) get it altered!!! I have pin up girls every where because they remind me that I am NO LESS OF A PERSON IF MY THIGHS TOUCH!

    We are all doing the right thing by trying to get healthy but don't let the little milestones go by! Celebrate everyday! There is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON that you can' t have that little betty page dress! I think you would be surprised how hot you would look in it!!!

    At first I thought I'd go on a wardrobe shopping spree when I hit my goal...but I've had to go shopping beforehand to replace these pants that are half-falling off! I probably will do some more shopping (hehe), but my real rewards are going to be going to Bob Evans and getting bisquits and sausage gravy and getting the tiger tattoo that I've been wanting for years.

    And somewhere in there I'm going to Starbucks. :laugh:

    I will buy lots new clothes including dresses, skirts and shorts that I will FINALLY feel comfortable in!
    I will go swimming more often just to show off my body :bigsmile:

    But before all of that..I think will stand infront of a full-length mirror for hours on end looking at myself and the abs i never thought i'd have (hopefully!) :tongue:

    Ditto to all the Bettie Page girls...and on a similar note, I would really like to have a boudoir photo shoot done for my husband after I hit my goal. :love:
