    I can't wait to eat at maintenance

    Tell me about it.

    Most of my body goals are fitness-related now though.

    I can't wait to be able to go on a night out with my friends and actually look forward to it rather than dread it and then feel awful the whole time I'm there.

    I also can't wait to be excited to see photos from events/ parties/ nights out rather than sitting on facebook waiting to rapidly untag myself so no one can see me.

    I'm excited to feel pretty again, rather than feeling like no matter what I do with my hair, makeup and outfit the first thing people will notice about me (and thing people will remember about me) is that I'm fat.

    My goals have always been clothing based ha. Recently I slimmed back into a pair of vintage-cut jeans and rocked those most days for weeks before I got bored ha - now I have a sweet little red polkadot dress that I'm working towards. I can't wait to wear that. :D

    I'm most excited to again have the stamina to do my two hour yoga routine. Also looking forward to getting back into my skinny clothes, although I don't know if they have survived storage in Mom's barn and attic. Will be happy to stop feeling the need to duck cameras.

    I can't wait to just feel better in my own skin and not constantly be adjusting my clothes to make sure I look ok.

    I'm sick of having a round, chubby face and am excited to see how my face looks at my goal weight.

    I also hide in hoodies, this year I found 1 t-shirt that I just about feel comfortable enough to wear outside the house (I bought 3 of them!).

    Ordering cool surf style clothing, I'm size 22 and they only go up to a 16 (UK sizes). I'm a tomboy and I hate that "bigger" sizes seem to be all frilly blouses and *kitten*, it's just not me!

    Eating more at maintenance as I'll most likely be exercising more too!

    Would love my boyfriend to be able to pick me up! (someone else said that :) )

    My main one is blending in, not feeling like the fat person in the room.. I feel that I over compensate by being overly nice to people because I'm scared they will judge me.. I just want to act normally and not worry about being judged purely on my weight.

    I also miss people being nice towards me, even in shops, people are nicer when you are thinner and you get a lot more positive attention.

    I started dating my boyfriend last year in June and he used to be able to lift me up and had no problems. I've since gained about 25 lbs so yeah, I want him to be able to do that again without me fearing he will break his back.

    I also want to, as someone said earlier, not have to run and untag my facebook pictures after an event.

    Also, I used to say "ugh I'm fat" when I wasn't even fat and people would be like "you're not even that big". Now when I say it or joke about it, they agree and don't give me any arguments.

    My mom also passes me her clothes and when others want to buy me something, they don't even consider a medium anymore, just large and XL.

    Lastly, it will be nice to have my old neck back. When I snapchat or front face the camera, the double chin scares me for a quick second. Rant over! Let's do this!

    Shopping for that new size 6 or 8 wardrobe! I love to shop but lately I've only bought shoes, bags and makeup. And I haven't even felt pretty enough for the makeup lately :disappointed: I currently wear a size 11/12 which is about the highest no plus size. Ick.

    I can't wait to wear crop tops again. I miss my flat stomach.

    Actually, I have loads of clothes from when I was a smaller size that I can't wait to fit into again.

    To fit into all of my old clothes, I have a massive amount of jeans that I cannot fit into. I also can't wait to be able to take my kids swimming and not be embarrassed about my weight.

    I look forward to buying clothes that don't stretch at all and having them fit nicely.
    Reducing my risk of developing health problems greatly.
    Having more energy and able to do more things so I live a fuller life.
    Not being embarrased to meet old friends.
    Not dreading my picture being taken.

    @Kimegatron aww I shall try not to but it's hard, especially when you read those "worst experience during a flight" tales & they involve someone being completely appalled by having to sit next to an obese person. However I don't have a flight scheduled till November, so should hopefully not have to worry about the seatbelt issue by then. (:

    You know, I see this worry on here a lot, and it's always saddened me. Some people will be annoyed by anything, I suppose, but I've been on many a flight where my neighbor took up some of my seat space, and it hasn't ruined my experience in the least. Once, even, it was impossible to put the armrest down and about 1/3 of my seat was taken up by my neighbor. I didn't mind scooting as far a I could to the other edge of my seat so we could both be comfortable. We were in contact the entire flight, and there were exactly zero negative consequences.

    Maybe I'm immune because I'm frequently squished on public transit (and not because of the size of people, but because of the sheer number of people during rush hour). In general, I need a large personal space bubble, but when I'm traveling -- whether it's on the bus to work or on a plane going halfway around the world -- I simply don't expect or need it, and I know I'm not alone.

    If fitting comfortably within the boundaries of your seat is a motivating factor for you, I don't want to take that from you, but I also don't want you to feel bad if the next time you're on a plane you haven't yet met that goal. The people who complain are louder than those of us who feel no need to complain at all, but my guess is most travelers fit into the latter group, silent though we may be.

    I can't wait to wear a little black dress to the 4-5 formal work events that I have to attend and work tech for every year. It sucks to wear formal dress and feel like a cow; it sucks even worse when everyone takes pictures and posts them in the weekly newsletter for everyone to see.

    Pretty much just the number on the scale, and the pride of going from morbidly obese to normal weight. I think my body will still look pretty trashed (I did it to myself), and I already feel awesome physically just from the 40 lbs I've lost so far.

    I make clothes for fun. I can't wait for my size to stop changing so I can feel like it's worth putting in the time and care again!

    I cannot wait for the day I'll meet old friends and get all the compliments on my weight loss. Also the usual "fitting into smaller clothes, feeling better and a lot more healthier about myself" and as a bonus: Meeting the people who bullied me and give them a big "*kitten* you guys" in their face...

    I cannot wait to wear a bikini again... and to RUN for an entire 5k. I cannot wait to have all my energy nap and not want to take a nap in the middle of the day like my babies.
