Does anyone have a special piece of clothing they want to fit into?

    My favorite dress. It's SO pretty. It's going to be a real challenge, as I'll have to be on the thinner/fitter side of a healthy weight to get it to close without straining the seams.

    A button up blouse. My tummy sticks out so I have to buy them so big they look like smocks.

    about 4 years ago I lost 50 lbs, at the end of 2017 I bought a size 5/6 pair of jeans, I wore them to a Kid Rock Concert that New Year's Eve and wore them a few more times, but in 2018 I slowly began putting weight back on and I can no longer wear those jeans. I didn't stop "working out" as I was on the treadmill more days than not, but I wasn't watching what I was eating closely enough and the treadmill really wasn't working for me anymore (I gained about 30 lbs last year. ) Luckily we have a new gym in the town where I work and I am now on week 2 of a 12 week weight lifting/cardio program and I am logging my calories here so I can wear those size 5/6 jeans again! Plus 2 of my children are getting married this year, my son in 5 weeks and my daughter in the fall, so I would really like to wear nice dresses to both weddings.

    YES! I have goal pants in my drawer - they are Converse jeans - size 2. I LOVE converse anything and stumbled on these jeans at a thrift store for $2 - So I bought them (at the time I was about a 6!) they've been in my drawer for a LONG time -but I refuse to get rid of them (have lots of other stuff that has gotten too small or too big -but not these - not til I can actually wear them in public!!

    (One time I got them on and zipped - but breathing was not an option!)

    I have suitcases full of clothes I bought when I lost a good deal of weight a few years ago. I lost focus and gained all the weight back and more. Now I’m trying again.

    I have some summer clothes that I would love to wear this summer; dresses, skirts, capris, even a bikini that I bought for inspiration last year

    Simple item for me. Under my bed I have plastic storage container full of my old clothes that all fit about 6 years ago. I went through it recently to see if there was anything I would want as I get closer to my old size. In it I found this well worn Jimi Hendrix T-shirt that I loved wearing, it still doesn’t fit, but I can see myself wearing it by summer.

    Not anymore. I got rid of all those. There's a soft sweater from Costco that was smaller than I thought it would be, but not a specific goal to wear.

    All the moms around here wear cute Lululemon and show off their buff arms. I don’t fit in any of their sizes but I’m going to! I want cute athleisure wear!

    Yes! There's this really nice purple snowmobile jacket I've always wanted but haven't bought it because they don't make it in my size. I need to lose a lot of weight to get in it but I have 6 months to get down enough to wiggle my way into it.

    I've gained wight over the past 18 months (having lost weight previously have maintaining for about 2 years) and have a whole wardrobe of things I love but can't fit into. I may not make it this summer for the shorts etc, but next year I hope to have the items out of the loft and back in my wardrobe.

    I have one pair of jeans in every size. Working my way down. One size down, 3 to go. It takes me about 15lbs to comfortably drop down to the next size down. Pretty much everything else I got rid of.

    I have a purple jumpsuit that I bought last year that I can't zip up all the way.

    My son is a Boy Scout and convinced me to be an Assistant Scoutmaster. Every week, I put on a uniform shirt that is tight in the shoulders (which I don't mind) and the waist (which bothers me to no end). Since my son has no intention of leaving the Boy Scouts any time soon, I am working to make that shirt fit better.

    I have a dress, a couple pairs of pants, and running clothes/jacket that I’d love to get into again. My new goal weight is lower than last time, for health reasons. So I hope I can get past those old faves I still have & into the next smaller size. But slow & steady. One day at a time.

    I'd be happy to fit into my old Air Force uniform again, or maybe my graduation gown from getting my MBA.

    Always! Even when we reach our goal, we need some wiggle room and various clothes within a range. We deserve to feel good in our clothes no matter what.

    I do! There's a shirt that I bought several years ago and it was one of my favorites and a bit on the pricier side, so it would be great to wear it again.
