Said I'd stay away from the forums - lasted less that a week but I think the answers from this one will be great reading :-)

Just noticed over the past few days, how so many of us lose some weight and are motivated to do all sorts of things they wouldn't have had the courage to do before, some weight related and others not - like a new lease of life thing :-)

So what's on your bucket list now you've got your mojo back? Looking for some motivation for my own I think! :-)

    I am going to go float the river without a shirt on. Be the first time in over 25 years that I have gone out in public without a shirt on.

    I've pretty much decided to do a Warrior Run in Surrey in June 2012, and I'm also considering a triathlon in May 2012.

    I'm getting ready (after 10-15 more lbs.) to shop in the NON-PLUS SIZE SECTION!!!! I've never shopped there, so I'm just assuming this would be the misses section? It's that bad that I don't even know. I've shopped in plus sized sections since my parents stopped buying my clothes for me when I was in jr. high school.

    Also, I'm going to do a 5k in November and I'm actually encouraging and sometimes dragging other people to go to workout classes with me. I used to be anti-exercise and vowed that it was terrible for anyone doing it. Often would go by gyms and make fun of people coming out for wasting their time being lame. I was so rude!!!

    Finding the cutest little black dress, lingerie shopping :-), and a bikini! I put away cash every-time I lose a pound to save up for a new wardrobe... when I look in my bank account I get excited to spend that money! It also leaves less money to spend on eating out (so i'm forced to cook food at home).

    I'm doing a 5k October 15th. I'd like to manage a couple 10ks in 2012. That may be the extent of my motivation. I don't actually like to run, I just want to prove I can.

    wear a bikini and look GREAT in it. in public! in full sun! also want to be able to wear halters/bikini tops/half shirts and not be afraid of my belly. part of my motivation is when I get to my goal, I'm buying myself a ticket to Australia for some intense hiking and beach time with friends there.

    and hey - short shorts! :D bring on the non-saggy *kitten*!

    also - I'm an actress, so I'm really looking forward to not having to include double-chin-camoflauge in my stage make-up repertoire, and having head shots I'm not always depressed about. I've gone from being typecast as the funny, pudgy, girlfriend to the Mae West Style voluptuous vamp, which is BETTER, but I want to not be discounted for other roles. while I'm still young!

    in all honesty... being the kind of woman my husband truly finds attractive... I want to be a soft curvy beautiful woman who has her curves in the right places. :) I'm also going to be buying some retro clothing! :)

    I started running when I started MFP, and I'm looking forward to going running with my mum (an avid runner) for the first time when she visits next week. I've always looked fit but never been fit, so I can't wait to show I can keep up.

    On my bucket list was a new, super short and daring haircut! I'm not even halfway to my goal yet, but I just feel so good, I did it anyways!

    Before, on my birthday in February

    Now (Actually, this was on Saturday!)

    I also want some new tattoos once I lose more weight! But the hair was a big decision!

    I want to travel the world with my family (including two young daughters) for a couple of years and I don't want to do it hauling another person (100+ pounds) around, if you know what I mean.

    Sightseeing, hiking, long walks and climbs to ancient ruins!

    I want to participate in a Warrior Dash, go white water kayaking, and get some ink down my side plus not be ashamed to lift my shirt for people to see it.

    I dont have too much more i want to acheive as i am a burlesque performer and pin up model. I perform mostly comedy routines but would be on stage in nothing more than pasties and knickers so I outwardly had body confidence but inside i truly loathe my figure. This is especially since i had my daughter as i have hundreds of stretch marks all over my tummy. I want to stand in front of a mirror and think, yup thats it , i look good..i may have my curves and a little wobble but overall yeah im ok...i'll get to that stage when im a size 12/14....

    To the tailored suit, I say, "YAY YOU!" In my opinion, a man looks FABULOUS in a suit that really fits!
