    Dance, once again, like nobody's watching!!

    Right now, w/ the weight gain, I'm painfully constricted & almost insanely conscientious of everyone around me. Rationally I know they're not thinking about me (at least I hope they're not) but it's hard not to think you're hearing "look at that fat-*kitten*" when you're tryin to dance w/ a (blubbery) tire around your waist, jiggly back fat & chunky inner thighs rubbin' together. I'm intensely honest with myself because I was the one who put on this weight that I'm currently taking back off...

    Omigosh, sooo many things!!

    - DANCING without my heart and lungs saying, "B**** PLEASE!" or my thighs laughing and saying, "Yeah, right!"
    - SAMBA!! lessons, without sweating more than my partner.
    - Not sweating like a man, period! lol
    - More actively playing with my nieces and nephew before they get to old to even want to anymore.
    - Warrior Dash, Tough Mudder, etc.
    - Ziplining, tree-top trekking, indoor rock climbing
    - Seeing the hour-glass figure I once possessed
    - BETTER COSTUMES!!! Cosplay, Halloween, so many ideas!!
    - DODGEBALL!! And other sports too.
    - Losing the bottom third of my face! All this chin is not conducive to the Mohawk I'm dying for.
    - Running tackles and picking people up by the neck...ahh, those were the days!
    - Wearing clothes that reflect the REAL me.
    - Saving $$$ on clothes!
    - Looking HAWT in a bathing suit
    - Looking down and seeing past my bosom and belly.
    - On second thought, just seeing past my belly :wink:
    - Running around the track...long, graceful, strong strides...in a cute little pair of shorts and tank top.
    - CHIN UPS!!

    No muffin top
    Wear a bathing suit without a coverup.
    Sit in an airplane seat without rubbing the person next to me or the people and snack carts down the aisle.
    Wear a belt to show off my waist
    I could go on, but I'll stick to the top four

    Running and running and running and running.

    Oh and I love all the vacation reasons like ziplining and rollercoastering - but I would love to be able to climb things, like ruins and monuments without being totally out of breath.

    You can start this now, I was probably close to your weight when I started. Use an interval program like C25K and know that it's hard for EVERYONE in the beginning, even thin people. My slim cousin and husband started running just after I did, it was every bit as challenging for the as it was for me. But, stick with it and it gets easier.
    I'm going to do something different. Here are the things that I was looking forward to when I started a bit over a year ago that I can do now:

    Backpacking (4 trips this summer!)
    Trail running
    Hiking challenging hikes
    Strength Training
    White Water Rafting with no fear of not fitting in a life vest(first trip tomorrow)
    Swim
    Jump off of a cliff into a mountain river
    Wear sleeveless shirts
    Walking across logs
    Run in Warrior Dash (I am doing this in a couple of weeks)
    Karate
    Be able to sit in a restaurant booth comfortably, and not even have to think of it.

    These are all things that I had dreamt of doing, but given up on ever happening. I'm only halfway to my goal weight.

    Here are the goals that are yet to come:
    Hike and raft the Grand Canyon
    Backpack in Mount Olympic Federal Park (it's a very aggressive trip, but gorgeous!)
    Be able to fit in the nice outdoor clothing brands.
    Tough Mudder

    I am confident that I will be able to accomplish these things next summer, even if I'm not at my goal weight, whatever that ends up being.

    Over time, I may add things to the list. Being able to run the Tough Mudder encompasses a lot of fitness goals (pull ups, rope climbing, etc.) and is a goal because of that.

    Show off some skin! Those cute little mini-skirts, mid-riff baring tops, bikinis, they'll all be mine! I have a long torso, combined with my big ole gut I am always fighting to keep it from oozing out of my clothes, but at 150 I will have it and I will flaunt it!

    Feel perfectly fine with myself at Thanksgiving when I'm hanging out with my cousins' wives. I love them both, they're sweeter than anything, but one is a physical trainer, and the other is a size 0 and I feel like tub of lard in makeup when we're together.

    Be strolling down the street and see a cute outfit in the window and just walk in and buy it without asking the lady if they sell plus-sizes, buying from stores in the U.K. / Europe.

    Make my parents proud.

    Walk without having to use my wheelchair after 12 steps. Take a walk with my husband on the beach. Get in the floor and play with my grandkids.
