Thing I most look forward to in losing weight

this thread has been good for me, slipping some lately. I love to be able to wear everything in my closet!

I want to be back down to light enough to ride my friend's amazing pony again.

Having the confidence to try things without worrying about being judged for my weight.

Dating! I know its my inner battle that's the issue as I feel I'm too big for guys to find me attractive which stops me putting myself out there to date but hopefully when I lose the weight my mindset will change also!

Faster on my bike. Fatty cyclist not so fast. Especially against wind and hills. Faster, tho, just equates to more bragging rights. So yea, bragging rights would be prob #1.

I look forward to keeping my pants button throughout the day... No more stomach fat making me feel uncomfortable in my clothes

Just feeling better all around and being able to pick anything out of my closet and having it fit properly.

I think looking good in photos is the biggest one for me.

I was just a brides maid in my sisters wedding and I looked terrible as the only fat brides maid. Plus my friends always want to take photos so i cant wait for when I just look good naturally all the time instead of when I dress well or do my hair and make up to slim my face.

This is a big one for me. My Best Friend got engaged 2 weeks after I started dieting and I want to look good at his wedding. Furthermore, I HATE pictures. I HATE smiling in pictures because I see my double chin. I will be so excited to finally not have that problem.

All over good health!! Camping, Biking, Hiking, Chasing my grandbabie and lots of new clothes and Jewelry. I Raised 4 Awesome kids.. And now it is time for me... My youngest Gunnar, he is in this with me and It has been so Amazing!! He looks after his Mom Also I wanna be in family picts, I have a beautiful family.. I just want to be a part of everything again.

I'm looking forward to being able to dress how I want instead of how my body shape forces me to dress and also having the energy and confidence to enjoy the activities I used to enjoy but have shied away from since I've put on weight.

Also feeling comfortable most of the time instead of constantly pulling my shirt over my stomach.

-Not being the fattest person in pictures
-Being able to dance better (I'm a member of a dance team so)
- Wearing dresses/skirts without chubrub
- Being able to shop in Japanese clothing stores (I had to avoid them all when I was in Japan last summer)
- Being able to wear high heels
- Shorts and short skirts!!
- Being more attractive> better chance of dating> finally having a relationship
- Feeling healthier and active

I can't believe someone else has the same obscure goal as me!
I was in Japan for xmas/new years and i was absolutely blown away by the amazing fashion they have over there, but I didn't fit into a single thing it was torture! I'm going back there next year and I'm determined to make up for not being able to fit into anything first time round

I look forward to being able to really enjoy summer, I love the sunshine but Australian summer weather + overweight = sweaty nasty hot mess not a good look xD I want that to change for sure

I want to be a fabulous looking 45 year old--healthy and vibrant and strong AND lose the weight before it gets really really hard-the older I get the trickier it is--want to get in front of that. And I have a gorgeous skirt that I have not been able to wear in two years. 15 pounds really makes a lot of difference. I keep unpacking that skirt with the summer clothes to motivate me. 15 pounds by labor day. Plus more energy and less achey-ness. And all this from only 15 extra pounds.

This pretty much describes my thoughts!

I will admit, I have never been a large person, but I have been an extremely fit, competitive athlete. I have known what it's like to be 16% body fat, to run a half marathon in 1:30 and to place in the top 10% at an Ironman. I remember these things with searing clarity. At 48, my goals are different, and I hope that by losing 15 pounds (I'm half way there, now) I can feel strong and fit again. Wouldn't hurt if I could fit into some of my clothes, too!

I'm cheering for all of you who want health, fitness and strength in your future – it is an awesome feeling and well-worth the challenge.

To fit into my favorite size 8 Ralph Lauren jeans again.

I want to keep up with my boyfriend, to feel good about myself, to wear nice things, actually take pictures of more than my face, to quit smoking and to not be sick every week -.-

I'm looking forward to lower cholesterol, easier movement, and fitting into my skinny clothes hanging in the closet!
