Where would you go if you were at your ideal weight?

I've done at lot of traveling already; even at my highest weight (285). England, Ireland, Mexico, Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, and all over the U.S. I managed to squeeze myself into a plane seat w/o being the next media target of the fat person who had to pay extra airfare and the destinations were fabulous but, I missed out on a lot because of my weight. In Australia, while other members of our tour group were climbing the bridge in Sydney Harbor, I was watching with binoculars from the side-lines. While others were ziplining, parasailing, and doing other equally awesome stuff in New Zealand, again, I was watching from the side-lines. The only real excursion I got to take was riding a camel in the Outback, which was awesome but, they do have weight limits. I got lucky because normally they ride two-up but, since I was so heavy, I would make me and my riding partner exceed the limits so, fortunately, it was a slow day and they were able to let me ride alone but it brought about the questions of, "why does she get to ride alone?" I had to fess up that I had to do it because I was too fat. Even though they were great trips, I feel like my money, in a lot of ways, was essentially wasted because I couldn't fully immerse myself in all they had to offer.
I'll never stop traveling and next stop will be Italy next year but, the difference will be that I won't be the one sitting on the side-lines anymore! I'll also be hitting up the local water park numerous times a summer. I also love, love, love amusement parks. But, the last time we went, I could only ride like 3 rides because I couldn't fit in the others. So, when goal is met; I'll be hitting up Disney Land.
This is why I want my husband & I to lose weight. We want to do all sorts of things & be able to fully enjoy them. We don't currently fit in airplane seats comfortably. I want to go to New Zealand so badly! I also want to ride every roller-coaster I can find!0 -
I'd try surfing and kiteboarding lessons in Hawaii. And then go to a nudie beach with my husband ; )0

To the beach!!!
I have always loved the beach and the water but have avoided going for 8 years. My kids want to go so badly every summer but I just don't have the confidence or ability to mentally survive that.
It's not only the fact that I would feel gross and embarrassed in a bathing suit, but it's how crushed I feel when I see other thin woman who look great. ESPECIALLY if my fiance is with us. It's as if I don't want him reminded, with me present, what he could have and what I could look like. It's kind of a 'he knows that I know' type of feeling and it's humiliating.
It's debilitates me emotionally and I can't deal.
By the way, any advice on this would be welcomed.0
