Hi everyone. I am on this journey primarily for health reasons. However, I'd be lying if I didn't say I am excited to be back in regular sized clothing.

The non-scale victory I am most looking forward to right now is being able to fit comfortably in an airplane seat and not require the belt extender. Especially since my job requires a lot of flying on small float planes, which is awful and embarrssing!

What nsv are you looking most forward to?

    34D bras and needing to buy new jeans! Such a pain that I'm too "big" for normal stores but too "small" for plus sized stores!

    I am really excited to wear a size small shirt. I always thought my boobs were to big (and they were) but now that I've lost the weight a small is well within reach since I'm beginning to fit well in mediums.

    Not feeling ashamed to sit in the seats at the movies or on an airplane.

    Why does that have to wait for weight loss?

    The airplane was a big victory for me. I travel a lot for work too.
    Being able to shop in the regular sizes was another huge one.
    Roller coaster seats and horseback riding.

    The best though, and still unattained is for my husband to be able to carry me. It's a wish he actually shared with me, and it was on my list too!

    Actually ENJOY clothes shopping and not have to ask the question "Can you direct me to the plus size section!"

    Being able to roller blade and ice skate without knee pain again. 36lb down, 71 lb to go before I can get my knee surgery. That's the plan!

    Getting into my wetsuit, I bought it about 2 years ago and have never fitted in it. It was A LOT smaller than I thought when I ordered it. I am almost there (as in I can fit in it and do it up but it takes about 30 minutes and cuts off the circulation to my feet, LOL!). A few more kilos and I should be able to go open water swimming without having to freeze in only my swimming costume :-D

    Why Wait? This is something that doesn't need weight loss. Unless you mean something different by S.O. than I do.

    For my engagement ring to fit on my finger. I refuse to have it resized and right now I wear it around my neck. People are always stopping and asking me about it. And it's so embarassing to have to admit that it doesn't fit.

    Buying pants at a normal store. I can already get shirts at the usual places (Target, Sears, etc...).

    Wearing my shirt tucked in with a skinny belt.

    I carry any excess around my waist...so while the scale looks pretty good, I can never wear a blouse tucked in without feeling self-conscious.

    I have a beautiful blouse I purchased online from China. It came too small, even though I ordered it in the right size(I guess the women in China are much smaller than women in the US). While I can get it over my head, it won't fit over my chest and is too tight on the arms. So, it hangs on a hanger on my closet door for me to look at every morning. When I reach goal, it should fit. I will post a picture of me wearing it then!
