in Motivation and Support
I have been reading the many success story threads and I find it motivational when people talk about the things that they didn't expect (like always being cold and having boney knees) and what is so great about having lost weight. However I'm new here and only just starting, so I thought it would be useful to focus on something I expect when I reach my goal that I look forward to and I'd like to hear what others are thinking.

I'm looking forward to getting dressed/picking out outfits quicker because I won't have to check that things still fit and make sure that all bulges are adequately hidden while still trying to look stylish!

    Wearing all the stylish clothes sitting in my closet. I'm a minimalist, but it took too much time to find these clothes and I paid too much to give them away.

    Also, getting off the blood pressure meds.

    Having fun outdoors again. I do this already, to an extent, but I would like to do more. Longer hikes. Canoeing. I would love to try ziplining. I would love to go sledding again.

    I guess being a straight up size 10/Medium. I've been at this weight loss thing forever it seems, and I'm really happy with my progress & maintaining it for years...but I want to step it up a little more because I feel like size 12 and Large stuff often looks weird and saggy on me but I can't always fit the 10 and M.

    For the record I'm NOT one of those people who is size obsessed (obviously, or I'd probably be striving for a much smaller size than this).

    I'm looking forward to being happy with my physical appearance and getting into a size 10 and not having flabby arms!! I've got about 40 pounds to go! I'm down 14.6 this month!

    Same as OP. I’m in maintenance and I love being able to wear anything in my closet and it fits or is loose! Love being able to run up flights of stairs and walk for miles and my feet don’t hurt. Love not worrying about what I look like in pictures. Love not dreading meeting people for the first time. Love splitting a dessert with my husband and not feeling guilty because I have learned how to enjoy treats in moderation. The list goes on and on.

    When my weight is on the lower end I find I don't think about it or my body half as much. I'm up 4-6 lbs from my lowest weight (and still want to lose a bit more after that) and I'm already so much more self conscious than I was. Sad.

    I can't wait to go suit shopping again. No tailor will be able to fix the drastic size change I'm planning on! I know it'll take me some time even after goals are met to feel good about myself, but at least then I'll have a before/after to debunk any negative thoughts!
