    Originally, I wanted to look good for graduation but seeing as that's in less than 2 weeks, it's no longer happening and I'll have to make sure I drink enough water and don't get bloated. At the moment it's just being able to fit into clothes I already have because the sizes are slowly getting bigger and I don't want that.

    First and foremost, I want to be a role model for my three kids and inspire them to enjoy life in a healthy way.
    Being able to enjoy doing more activities with my kids.
    Looking hot shirtless. Well, actually looking the best I have never been.
    Buying clothes that make me look really good and some tight shirts, T-shirts, trousers, etc.

    It has already started as I had to buy real swim shorts (the tight model not trunks) as I swim a lot. I had always refused to wear them (although it is mandatory at pools in France for example) because I would look terrible.
    Now, I don't feel that way anymore.
    I still don't feel good looking but getting there !

    A wardrobe that consists of more than 4 dresses and some t-shirts and jeans.

    Just a fun thread today for everyone.....

    What are some of the things you are really looking forward too once you lose your goal weight?

    Here are some of mine:

    - Participate in the mud run my friends do each year.
    - Not get winded walking up stairs to bed.
    - Not have to use a CPAP machine when sleeping anymore. No sleep apnea.
    - Wear normal sized clothes - no more only going to stores with big & tall sections.
    - Enjoy going to the gym and getting exercise and not have it be a chore.
    - Feel more than comfortable taking shirt off at pool, hot tub, beach, basketball game, or hiking.
    - Be able to bend over and tie my shoes without belly in way. Not tying them cross legged/sideways.

    Being able to sew with the cool indie designer patterns and use less fabric doing it - and wearing cool trendy styles without being afraid of looking ridiculous in them because I am fat. Not to mention just more options in smaller sizes clothes-wise, and my thighs not rubbing together when I run.

    And laying out to get a tan or not wearing a shirt when exercising (just sports bra). That would be rad.

    I'm definitely looking forward to going shopping and wearing the clothes I've always wanted to wear. I work in fashion and I want to look great in my clothing, and more importantly, feel comfortable wearing it for 9+ hours a day. This includes wearing a button-down that won't gap in the chest (my holy grail of cool-girl basics to fit into!). But when it comes down to it, I'm in my mid-20s, and I want to look great whenever I look back at some of my best years. I realized the other day that I haven't been less than 150 pounds since I was in 6th grade... going below that would mean I've accomplished a goal I've had for over 10 years.

    Having my legs not rub together.
    Feeling confident when camping and hiking, instead of feeling out of place and fat.
    Feeling more confident in applying for jobs.
    Looking pretty and slim when I graduate uni.
    Not overheating all the time.
    Wearing all the lovely clothes I have that are a bit too small.

    Just looking to look better without clothes. And with clothes. To get outta of the XXL unless your talking about my muscles. Fitness is not just for the young it's for everyone it's for me. I can get the body I want 37 is not to late to look amazing.

    Getting faster! The less dead weight I have, the better running feels.

    Feeling good about myself.
    Riding carnival rides with my daughter.
    My husband being able to put his arms around me.
    No more chafing.
    Buying all the cute clothes.
    Being able to put on socks with ease.
    Not thinking of myself as ugly.
    Being able to see my feet without moving my boobs out of the way.
    Not having trouble with the seatbelt.
    Being able to comfortably sit in a booth.
    Better health in general.

    I have reached my first goal to loose enough for my health insurance to pay for my knee replacement surgeries! I had to loose 20, but I have lost 24. I have been setting small 10lb goals to not get overwhelmed. I am enjoying being able to wear clothes that I have had stuffed in my closet. I bought a size smaller shorts the other day too! I can't wait to really go on a shopping spree. Oh, I did have to get a couple smaller bra's too. Hubby don't like that part, haha! But I loved it! I can't wait to buy a cute dress and some of those cool exercise clothes to use at the gym once my knees get healed. Having my surgeries in September and October. Good luck to all, hope you meet you dreams! <3

    Riding again. As my reward I'm booking an 8 day mobile horseback riding safari in Kenya, Africa. (Next year - 35 lbs from now)

    My first goal, is to be able to see my feet, without having to bend over. I know it might sound stupid, but that is my first goal.
