    My chest is currently popping out of my wedding dress, so I am coming out of maintenance to attempt some cup-size-shrinkage, haha.

    I gotta rock a sari or lehenga at some family-in-law weddings this summer.

    Aunties. Mother-in-law. Fiance's reputation as a ladykiller on the line. I really gotta rock it.

    I had so many clothes that I had bought and never fit right or at all! I lost 40lbs and decided I should revisit those items which now either all fit or are too big so that was a huge accomplishment because I always wanted to fit in to them. Right now I'm aiming to fit into a size 6 Jean! That would it for me hahaha :) your husband is going to be so impressed with you when you reach your goals which I know you will! Good work lady

    I also have a few dresses that I bought when I was like oh 5lbs. Another of mine is a skirt my sister no longer fit in. I could fit in it but it was a touch too tight. I want to be able to fit that too. I have a good size 12-14 wardrobe from previous weight loss attempts. I am dying though to be able to zip and fit a pair of 8's when all is said and done.

    The green and cream Ed Hardy top that my fella bought me last year, I could almost squeeze into it but at the risk of the seam busting; it has a dove on the front and it's face was so badly stretched across my bust that it was hardly recognisable as a bird, lol. I couldn't really get my chubby arms into it either. I'm so close to fitting into it properly!

    I bought some summer dresses online last year and after trying them on I noticed they really, really showed off my figure. So maybe I'll be able to wear them this year, if I think my figure is ready to be showed off. :)

    There's a really nice black pleather corset with buckles I bought once online and it SAID it was American sizes, so I ordered a 2x which was supposed to be my size, a 16/18. When it came it was an Asian 2x. That's around a size 8 here. It's so sexy and I would LOVE to fit in it someday. It's slightly adjustable, and I think that when I hit my goal weight I will be around a size 8/10 and could fit in it. I keep it in the closet on a high shelf....just waiting.

    bikini-always! Want to feel fit in a bikini with a flat tummy and minimal jiggle.

    I have a dress I wore to weddings pre-kids that I use as my benchmark. It's sleek and gauzy and shows all the lumps and bumps if I'm not lean enough. And of course, I try not to look too chunky in my bikini in the summer.

    Previously, it was my wedding gown (a decade ago, sigh <3 ). I finally fit back into it, actually it's loose on me YAY! So, I have new motivating clothing, as I'm just about at goal--I have finally bought brand new trousers in my current size. Well, they *just* barely button, but look faboosh everywhere else on me (size bigger was too big). So, that motivates me to continue my training and stay the course to lose the last inch (and KEEP it off) in my midsection.

    My wedding dress. Well, my future one. Im getting married and Im going dress shopping in April.
    My wedding dress is motivating me as well... I've already bought it. When I put it on somebody might as well get ready to roll me down the aisle. I ain't walking anywhere. Lol

    I have a pair of jeans from high school. My best friend and I both loved these jeans, and we "fought" over them often. A few years ago she came for a visit and got into them. (Luckily, they are so out of style, she didn't steal them.) I hope to do the same someday! They are 11/12 so definitely doable!

    Cute underwear.

    I have the mom stomach overhang/apple-shaped combo that requires utilitarian unders. It's a lot better than a year ago but still only high waisted stuff if I want to be able to move in any way. Anything lower cut slides under my stomach about .5 seconds after I put it on. Lovely.
  • One of those tiny compression shorts!!!! My goal is to wear one by summer 2016! :)

    A bikini! I'm obsessed with getting a mermaid bikini this summer to wear on vacation!

    Ahhh I have a few!

    - Black skin tight dress
    - Dress I wore to my year 12 formal
    - Pair of white jeans I got given to me that I have never been able to fit into

    And of course being confident to wear a bikini for the cruise I'm going on in November this year!

    I forgot about these! Holy crap. Maybe I can wear some this summer.

    Oh this too! Need someone to wear it for, though. And lacy bras. I'm a D cup until I'm at my ideal weight, then I can wear a nice C and not need the industrial strength suitcase straps to keep the girls where I want them.

    Wear it for yourself. When I go out, even when I know no one is going to see, I feel sexy if I am wearing nice under things. Some of the things aren't "nice" though...I have some really fun one size fits all things now.

    I wear a lot of "goth" type clothes. Unfortunately, most of that style has moved to Japan where the girls don't really have hips and are tiny. Bought two pairs of pants and can't wait to be able to stick my legs in them!

    I've always wanted a *LBD...little black dress*. I'm going shopping to find one in a size 6(US) and use that as my ultimate clothing goal. I gave away all my smaller clothes over a year ago, thinking I was never going to be able to lose the weight. But after finding out that I have a few medical conditions that are now being addressed, I'm finally losing the weight. I am SO determined to be at goal THIS year!!!

    I have a plastic storage tote in my closet where I saved my favorite smaller clothes. I have jeans ranging from 7 - 10, small and medium tops, etc. I'm hoping to start breaking out the 10's within the next month.
