I want to do a triathlon by this time next year - I don't want to worry about placing, but I want to finish it, preferably not by crossing the finish line in an ambulance after collapsing!

Default What I Want...

I want to be an inspiration to my children. I want them to know that all things are possible, and that they can do anything through their own strength and will power.

I want to be able to buy clothes just because I like them, and not have to worry about whether it will be flattering or hide this part of me and camoflauge that part of me. I want my personal sense of style to no longer be hindered by my body type.

I want to be able to buy clothes that I like not the clothes I have to buy. I want my kids and husband to be proud of me and last but not least I want to be able to turn heads again in a positive way!

I want to complete a 5K run sometime this spring or summer.

And to all of you who want to shop in regular size stores, I will say that it was absolutely wonderful when I started doing that. (Actually, the biggest thrill was finding stuff at consignment stores--it fit and was a bargain, too!) It's a worthy goal, IMHO. I also love being able to throw all the plus-sized catalogs away without even looking at them.

I would love to be able to do a pull up. I honestly can’t recall ever being able to do one, and that might give me the confidence boost to take up some serious rock climbing. Someday…

To go to an amusement park and ride all the rides without fear of not fiting in the seat/restraint. That is my first goal. After that, definitely to be able to buy clothes in ALL stores instead of just those that cater to plus sizes
