Moved out of my small hometown as the awkward, overweight tall girl. Want to go back as the gorgeous, tall, muscular/action hero-y woman. Want to go to a comic convention dressed as various kick-butt characters (Wonder Woman, Cara Dune, etc) and actually look like I could kick your butt. Basically warrior goddess vibes.21

I am going on a birthday cruise in six months and I want to wear my red bikini. It is one of the last things my ex husband bought me. We loved to cruise together. Nothing will be better than cruising without him and looking super hot.
I’m going on a beach trip with girlfriends in six months and I, too, want to wear a red bikini. Or black. Or one with flowers. I literally have a drawer full of cute two pieces that I never feel good about wearing. I want to feel good when I put it on - and not “good for today” or “ehhh good enough.” Like, slap it on and let’s go tan! Or swim! Or snorkel! Or anything except shift around on my towel trying not to be all lumpy looking for the group photos…

For the last several years (with the exception of last year), my friends and I go on a boys weekend. Simply put, I am tired of being the fat friend.20

My petty reason is that when my wife and I took our son to Canada's Wonderland, I was too fat to fit on the roller coasters. The bars that hold you in couldn't close and lock so I was asked to step off the rides. That was a huge blow to my ego, not to mention the fact that my son had to ride those coasters all by himself. Also, I hate not being able to buy clothes off the rack from most stores. I have to shop at big and tall stores that have a terrible selection of clothing to choose from.18

I want to be slimmer and more successful than my petty and spoiled cousin. Now I feel sorry for her. She fat and sickly and unhappy with her life. She's still my cousin and I care about her.6

My reason to lose weight 3 years ago was because my cardiologist said losing weight would NOT bring my numbers down and he wanted to put me on 5 different meds. When my numbers were just borderline. I noped right on out of that office. Went back 6 months and 30 pounds lighter just to prove him wrong. I ended up losing a total of 90 pounds. No meds. I'm back now because, honestly, I just like how my clothes fit when I was at 145 instead of 173, so back at it.16

I have a swimsuit hanging on my closet door as a reminder ( It has been there Forever. Literally 2 years) . I would love to see myself wearing it and feeling actually confident. In two years, when I hit the big 40, I want to feel and look fabulous! AND wear that dang swimsuit! (also I want to be the snack not eat the snack )10

Another petty/ not-so petty reason: One of my good friends is super athletic. Her idea of a fun Sunday afternoon activity is hiking up a mountain or kayaking on a river. I like those things too, and I've joined her on the latter! That said, I could tell I was slowing her down. I want to be able to keep up with her no problem.14

Recently took a trip and just didn't like how I was looking. I'm strong and healthy, good fashion too, but I honestly look a bit soft. And considering where I live, how you look is a big focal point in people's lives. So I just wanna look good in my pictures 😂9
