    I really want to go Sky diving and bungee jumping, you need to be 230 or under to be able to do them! I can't wait until I get there!

    I would have said the rollercoaster thing to but just last month I went to an amusement park and was able to get on every ride! Talk about an amazing and surprising NSV!

    Yeah I went to Cedar Point and could only ride like 3 things, none were very fun lol. And embarassing is waiting in line and then trying to get holstered in and unable to do so. It's like a walk of shame. Although I do have broad shoulders. it definitely wasn;t the shoulders causing the rides to not holster me in right lol. I'd like to be able nto ride once again too.

    I just really want to be able to feel comfortable in a bikini on vacation this coming Christmas! I haven't bough a new swimsuit for three years because I avoid them like the plague -- losing the weight will definitely help!

    I just joined, so friend me please! :)

    I totally understand the roller coasters thing. I went to a theme park some years ago and didn't fit in some of the roller coasters. Very embarrassing. Now I'm a 100lbs smaller and can fit without a problem, but I still get scared of not fitting for whatever reason.

    A couple things:

    Going up stairs. I had to walk up 5 flights (elevator down) and I wasn't winded and I didn't feel sweaty or clammy. Yes, it was only 5 flights, to the 5th floor, but an accomplishment for sure.

    Buying clothes, buying and wearing sizes I have never worn in my life. Picking out colors and styles that I would have never worn before or if I DID try them on, I left with the feeling of "wow, looked better on the hanger than on me!"
    I used to hate shopping and did it strictly on a need to basic. Now I actually have fun looking at clothes and trying stuff on. I recall times before when I actually left stores upset or I would cry in the car because I just felt like nothing fit right or looked good. It made me feel really really bad about myself.

    I will always have issues riding with my kids since I am 6'2"...so the legs kinda make it tough. But, I would LOVE to be able to buy regular clothes and not have to worry about if my belly is sticking out underneath because they are short. Also, be comfortable in a 2-piece bathing suit. Not necessarliy a String Bikini but, a 2- piece!! :)

    GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!

    being able to breathe comfortably. Ive had some very major health issues in the last year including a battle
    with mold that has severely restricted my ability to breathe. I am already able to breathe better with just a
    20 lb loss so Im hoping it will continue to get better as Im able to get more weight off. You dont realize how
    fast it sneaks up on ya til it's almost too late

    oooh I hadn't even thought of this but yeahh that's a great motivator!! also I live fairly close to the beach so would love to be able to go there with my sister and wear a bikini (when the british summer is actually being summer and not raining)

    but also an everyday one for me is to be able to wear short sleeved t-shirts and vests out without a cardigan! I hate how my arms look so can't WAIT not to have to boil every time it's slightly warm :(
