Thunder only happens when it's raining.
Players only love you when they're playing.

(Someone had to do it!)

I will post my dreams later, but that ^^ was the first thing to pop in my head when I saw this thread's name.

yay! stevie nicks!! that happens to be my favorite fleetwood mac song. =)

Wow what an inspirational post! I have a few to add here:

1. To be able to carry my kids without feeling like i am going to have to put them down.

2. To be able to walk my son to school and not be afraid that i wont be able to make it back up the hill.

3. To be able to ride a bike without being afraid it will bend the tires or people will laugh.

4. To be able to go to a class reunion and be thin.

5. To be able to look in the mirror and see the same person that lives in my heart.

1) I want to see hip bones.

2) I have a certain outfit that I always envision myself in when I reach my goal weight. I think it's totally out of style, but I'm going to find something similar enough to satisfy me.

3) I want to see muscle definition.

4) I want to enjoy going shopping and not be afraid to look in the dressing room mirror.

5) I want to get a family portrait taken, and not always avoid the camera at family functions.

6) I want to walk down the street, see my reflection in a window and smile to myself because I know I look as good as i feel.

7) I want to collect my goal reward (haven't quite decided what it's going to be, but it will be good!)

There are so many great things here...mine are much of the same.

I dream of...

• Sitting with Jacob in my lap and having a place for him, no stomach in the way
• Wearing a coral tutleneck sweater tucked into my jeans and look like a million bucks (I actually have them hanging on my bedroom door)
• Playing ball with Jacob in the back yard for hours and him being the one to tire out
• Swimming - I just want to not be embarrased.
• I want to be able to go bike riding with my family
• Proud of myself for my biggest accomplishment ever - reaching my goal weight.

I loved to read everyone's dreams. especially when they realized them!

These are all great dreams. I can certainly related to most of them. My own dreams include:

Being able to run without feeling like I am going into cardiac or respiratory arrest.

Being able to buy cute stylish clothes that look more like me than my grandmother.

Being able to walk into a restaurant and not worry about fitting into the booth.

Weighting less than my DH.

Seeing people I have not seen in awhile and watching their mouths drop open.

Did anyone say "not feeling like a GIANT when standing next you your friends" yet?

And I don't want to be fat at prom and sweeties and my wedding (I KNOW it's far off, but still...)

I dream to look fantastic in formal wear ;)

I just read this whole thread & I have but one thing to say: What is the big deal w/Victoria's Secret? :lol: I only ever get jammies from there. Their bras have never fit me & don't think I won't remember that when I'm a hot mama! :D

• I’d like to go to the beach & not worry about what anyone might be thinking.
• I’d like to go back on roller coasters.
• I’d like to have well-defined arms, not batwings.
• I’d like muscular, well-toned thighs.
• I’d like to be more uninhibited in the bedroom. :o
• I’d like to know that if/when a relationship ends, it’s NOT b/c I’m a fat girl and he is just too nice to say that to my face. :dz:
• I’d like to wear pants w/o my gut hanging over the waistband. (I’ve always been an hourglass, this one is just too full!)
• I’d like to go clothes shopping in the regular sizes department.
• I’d like to have relatives I only see every 2 years to do double takes next time they see me & tell me how great I look.

And I'm spent!
