    I'm looking forward to actually DOING things! I want to sky dive, ride roller coasters again, take a self defense class, and learn to surf. My weight holds me back from so much activity. Now that I've lost 74 pounds, I find it's so much easier to get around, and I can spend hours at museums and art galleries without getting out of breath or having pain in my feet or knees. I am hitting up an amusement park in one month and I plan to ride every coaster, front row, multiple times, to celebrate fitting in to the seats!

    THIS!!!!!! All of these things!!!!!!!!!

    I'm looking forward to being able to just buy a plane ticket and not have to worry about how wide the seats are. I'm looking forward to being able to go the amusement park and ride all the roller coasters again and NOT have to spend hours looking up which rides I'm too big for so I don't embarrass myself by having to take the walk of shame because I don't fit. I want to be able to go do activities without having to worry about "am I above the weight limit for this kayak? It's gonna be pretty close!".

    Like the poster above said, there's so much I WANT to do but I'm unable to because of my weight.

    I have a list, I look forward to my thighs not rubbing together, to being able to wear jeans again, to be able to wear heels, to go shopping and buy what I want, to be comfortable in my skin, to be able to do things that I want to do without fear of can I fit in the seat, will I be comfortable. Just to be healthy. Thats for starters but I think the main things.

    To be able to look great in clothes sizes in the normal clothes shops. I'm sick of being in plus sizes or trying to squish into a large when I'm not. I'm petite and short, I want to look like it!

    In July of 2016 we will be celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. Our children and families are celebrating in Colorado as that is most everyone's favorite place!

    So.....I want all of my weight off by then.
    I want the BMI calculator to say NORMAL, not overweight and not obese.
    I want to be able to play with my Grandchildren as we will play athletic games
    I want my hubby to able to quit worrying about my weight
    I want to feel good

    That ought to be the best reasons every, right??

    I have little rewards about every 5 lbs I lose for motivation (like a new lipstick or nail polish) but when I reach my goal weight I'm going to do something really nice for myself, like a shopping spree for new clothes or something :) I'm also just looking forward to looking in the mirror and loving my healthier body!

    What I can't wait for is to be able to walk around in peace. Sick of seeing the shocked looks of people who haven't seen me in a while when they see me for the first time since I've rapidly gained about 50 lbs. It makes me feel really stressed about my weight and also resentful that I'm being judged.

    This is where I am too, especially with the surfing! I don't live near the ocean, but I'm taking a special beach trip once I hit my final goal weight. Having more energy and being active is really motivating at this point. Hiking, birdwatching. Having energy after being at work all day to still go to a museum.

    So many Ideas here!! I never thought of the over the calf boots because they never fit so I gave up on those years ago, oh that would be amazing!!!!
    I like the idea of never be worried about the weight requirement on anything, a chair, a amusement ride, etc.
    I would love to NEVER shop in a plus size store again!

    Walking around (PROUDLY, but Humbly) with my shirt off in and out of the house.

    Me too! 6 pack in my early 20's and big gut the last 15 years. Time to get it back.
