    buying a whole new wardrobe :)) oh and getting a fresh start and all that comes with that as well as reactivating my facebook a new and hopefully unrecognizable person :)

    Same here I don't think I've spent a lot of money on clothes or myself in so long I'm looking forward to it, and looking good in them...a BIG plus ;)

    Looking forward to wearing a bathing suit in my own back yard pool and NOT feeling like a whale. It's a bummer to host a pool party and being the only one not in the water!

    yep, stocking my closet with a permanent wardrobe - I'm SUPER happy dropping out of sizes, but I"m broke and know I'll continue to shrink, so I keep looking for little bargains on trousers and jeans that I can get for in-between wardrobe! But it's the first time I've ever felt so super confident I was on the way to a definite goal - I am just going slowly and so I have to be VERY patient about new clothes!!

    Being pain free! All this weight is killing my feet and my sciatic nerves in my legs keep me up at night

    Not feeling angry and disgusted with myself. I lost 15 pounds 3 years ago...took me 6 months, and then I gained it back in 6 weeks! Now its just impossible for me to cut back enough to lose the weight. I need to be on a 1200 calorie a day eating plan and I end each day at 2000 - 2200 calories...combined with the exercise I manage to get, that leaves me at the same weight..MAYBE i lose a pound or 2 and then its RIGHT back on. I cannot seem to keep my mouth shut, or satiate the sweet tooth from hell.
    If I manage to pull this off (losing 15 pounds) I look forward to not hating myself 10 times a day for not being able to control this.

    You reminded me of another main goal of mine, I want my back to never EVER bother me again. Which means some serious core muscles and a very low body fat %.

    Better health and more energy is definetly a huge one.
    But I will say.. Being able to go into the store and find a top I like and not have to be like... will it fit me or not? Even if it is a small or xsmall and I am usually a medium... It will look tiny but still fit. I miss that feeling :frown: and wearing lingerie for my husband! lol.. thats more of a bonus for him.. but empowering to me!

    For my husband to pick me up and carry me, instead of me yelling at him to put me down because I think he's going to break his back and feeling so ashamed and embarrassed.

    To be able to shop at my favorite stores for more than perfume, bags, shoes, jewelery, etc.

    To be able to run for miles without stopping.

    To be able to share clothes with my 2 younger sisters.

    To have a photo shoot at my goal weight.

    To be able to wear heels longer & more often because I don't have to support so much weight anymore.

    To have enough energy to outrun my 4 year old son all the time.

    .. and those are just some of the most important to me, but I could go on! :D

    It sounds like you need to get to the root of why you over eat. I had to do that too. I had to realize that I wasn't eating when I was physically hungry most of the time that I ate. Next time you go to eat something, sit for a minute and ask yourself what you're actually feeling. Write it down even, if that helps - make a list of what you're feeling in that exact moment. Some of us eat when we are lonely, bored, tired, angry, etc. I had to learn to say no to eating my feelings and say yes to loving myself and my body. Food is fuel, and many of us use it for so many other reasons and that's really hurting us in the end.

    Anyway, I hope you don't take offense to my post. I just know that's something I struggled with and thought I'd put that out there in case you struggle with it as well. :)

    to not be the fat girl for ONCE in my life.
    to be healthy enough to have a family
    to shop at ANY store
    to be able to pull my knees to my chest and rest my chin on them (stupid, i know, but i've always wanted to be able to... its a weird thing to envy i guess)

    Take my shirt off at the pool or beach without feeling the need to apologize to anyone who should happen to catch a glimpse.

    I hadn't really given it much thought, but in another 6 months to a year I should be there, so I should give this some consideration! I believe it will be so much easier to shop for clothes, more things will fit. I won't feel compelled to wear hoodies or jackets tied around my waist to hide what can't really be hidden in the first place. I will be able to show some leg and some arm knowing that it looks good and not flabby. I'm also looking forward to feeling healthy and strong. I've seen so many changes in the first 5 months of my journey, I know its just going to get better as I go further!

    Thanks for asking!!! :drinker:

    To wear clothes that don't have sizes preceded by a "W". More than that, dare I wish for a size in the single digits?

    I'm going to have a million pair and wear them with everything.... skirts, mini skirts, jeans or just walking around the house... I wanna show off some rockin legs!
