    Sky-diving
    Tough Mudder
    Adventure Tourism (zip-lining, hiking, scuba diving etc.)
    Yes, these types of things, but ESPECIALLY sky-diving. The weight limit is 220 lbs. I'm now within a few pounds of being able to book a sky-diving session.

    Cross my legs comfortably

    Me too!! I'm nearly half way to my goal, and I noticed at church this past Sunday that I had crossed my legs properly and not even realized it. It was a small victory, but a victory none-the-less.

    Cosplay in something REALLY cute and totally geek out with my best mate who's really hot (but not my type) at expos
    Feel healthy
    Not get puffed going up the one flight of stairs to my colleagues' offices
    Bungy jumping
    Feel attractive (it's a shallow goal, but hey, I can be shallow too) :blushing:
    Look awesome in a pair of jeans
    Go to the local hot pools and not feel self-conscious about being in a bathing suit (I'm not holding my breath for a bikini)
    Give my dad's wife and anyone else who said I couldn't lose weight and keep it off the finger. :bigsmile:

    I want to shop in a store where everything DOES NOT HAVE sequins, glitter, or animals...on it. Really? If I am feeling big...do I need to sparkle and have safari animals on my leg? Who thinks this stuff up? I want to be able to shop in a store where I can find something in my size, that fits well, and that does not draw attention UNLESS I want it to.

    Post progression photos to my blog. Before and After.
    See my collarbone.
    See my curves without trying.
    Be on a ponytail, white shirt tucked in skinny jeans without being conscious with how I look.
    Get a great fitting bra.

    Being able to wear cute shoes again, not just comfortable ones. I wore heels a few weeks ago and wound up getting x-rays 4 days later. Didn't break anything, but did some soft tissue damage.

    I used to work in heels, 8 hours a day. Now they are mini-torture chambers.

    I am really hoping that I can lose all the medications I am taking.
    Blood pressure, Cholesterol, and oral meds for Diabetes.
    These were brought on by being fat and would love to eliminate them from NOT being fat.

    not that i *can't* but more that I *won't* - wear sleeveless tops.

    other things that have been mentioned:
    *stop taking blood pressure and cholesterol meds
    *being able to buy clothing anywhere, not being stuck with "whatever fits"
    *feeling comfortable and confident about my body
    *being able to go hiking again
    *ride a bike (again, this is somethign that I *can* do but I felt uncomfortable and unstable so would rather be a smaller size before i attempt this again)

    I am grateful that I have a job, go to work, can still fit in *my* half of the seat on public transportation, have not yet needed an extension belt on an airplane (but on my last flight came pretty close).

    Clothes!! Able to buy clothes, and I have not worn a dress or a skirt since I was maybe 12.. I am 29... maybe I'd get one. My family thinks I just don't like them, but the truth is I do not like how I look in them.

    Also riding rides at amusement parks. I don't ride anything anymore, to embarrassed and scared that the "locks" or whatever on the ride wont fit and I'll be embarrassed.

    Also riding a bike and rollerblading, used to do that when I was younger.

    No more ankle injuries! I'm so tired of my ankles not holding out with intensive cardio because of my extra weight.
