This is a great thread!!!.. so glad to read everybody's wonderful ambitions...

After I lose weight, I will.....

*** Stop living in sweat pants & baggy t-shirts
*** Enjoy having my photo taken &, better yet, not be afraid to send a photo to my old boyfriend (eat your heart out, guy)
*** Go to the water park without feeling self-conscious
*** Go on a cruise & not be surprised at getting attention from that silver-haired hunk
*** Work in my garden without getting tired
*** Go to my class reunion & look better than most of those "old" people
*** Live a longer & healthier & happier life
*** (The best for last) Be able to keep up with my lively 11-year-old grandson

Fit on the rides comfortably at Six Flags and Disney World!
Oh...and buy lots of clothes and not feel like crying in the dressing room.

...be in front of the camera instead of behind it (and when I'm in pictures I won't be in the back row!)
...be able to see my bikini line when I shave it! TMI, sorry.
...reconnect with childhood friends
...buy an updated wardrobe and wear things that I had refused to get rid of despite thinking they'd never fit me again!
...look at pictures of myself and not cringe!

I start my program tomorrow. Why am I on this path?
- Reduce my A1C to normal
- Stop the swelling in my ankles
- Be able to play with my grandchildren the way I want.
- Go down the big slide at the pool this summer
- Ride an airplane without feeling I am crowding my seat mate
- Fit into that airplane seat belt
- Ride a rollercoaster!

these are all great to read! We can do it!

-to shop and not want to cry in the changing room
-to be able to look AT a mirrored wall if I happen to be walking toward one, and stop LOOKING AWAY FROM IT
-to boost my personal morale of reaching my pre IP weight, and feeling good about ME
-to get as much weight off of these joints as possible, so that after hip surgery I will heal faster

I agree! these are wonderful and inspiring to read. The things I am looking forward to include:
-not being out of breath doing laundry
-keeping up with the grandkids
-also joint relief
-no more sweat pants and ugly tops
-being alive in 10 years so I can enjoy my 4 grandsons!
-LEARN HOW TO KEEP THIS WEIGHT OFF!
Keep up the good work everyone. I did this once and lost 50 lbs. But like a dummy I put it all on plus another 30 pounds. I'm in this for the LONG haul now!

For Me:

Be a good example to my DH so he'll consider modifying his health habits
Reduce pain in my joints
Fit back into the stunning evening gowns I own
Sew a complete 1930's-retro wardrobe from my vintage patterns
Walk faster and longer distances

Same here! DH and I have gained a lot of weight together over the years and I'm finally just starting to convince him to do something about it along with me.

Keep at it Greyfaery! I wish you luck.

I have an immovable stone wall to work with. He's got a huge sweet tooth, and loves carbs - and says that he'd rather die early than give them up.

Ladyjan I have the same problem. He adores his sweets, is on medication for diabetes and gets angry when we discuss his eating habits....stubborn Italian to the end- .....Hopefully a switch will flip soon....
