I go to VA in the summer (which is soooo disgusting with all the hot... and humidity... compared to Scotland) and I'm looking forward to not wearing only white t-shirts to cover up the sweating.
And to wear nice skirts while I'm there, instead of unflattering 3/4 cropped trousers.
I'm going on a European cruise, and one of my shore excursions will be hiking up Mt. Vesuvius. I would love to be in good enough shape to do the hike without feeling like I was killing myself!
As for clothing, I want to be able to comfortably wear shorts. I'm working on toning my arms right now because I would love to wear tank tops, too. I'll see how nice my arms get by then. Mostly I just look forward to being able to walk around the ship and on the excursions without feeling like I'm judged for my size. I want people to look at me and see just a fit girl, not a fat girl who is trying to look fit.
Ahaha, I'm looking forward to possibly going to Europe. My best friend will have graduated from college by then, and I passed on traveling to Europe last summer when I graduated, so I'm scrimping and scrounging to save so that I can be seduced by a gorgeous Italian man probably named Paolo or Marco (though I don't think my boyfriend would appreciate that much) ahahaha.
My summer is taking classes so I can take advantage of the free gym on campus, I may or may not go to Disney or camping with my family. Basically I'll be working hard physically and academically to get ready for my semester in London *squee*!
I'm with you all on the tank tops!! I LOVE the ones with the shelf bra in them. Soooo comfy! I could wear that every single day ... just in different colors lol
We are at the pool a LOT every summer so a bikini is a big thing for me too. All my neighbors have pools so we basically live at other peoples houses while hubby is at work. My 2 boys race bikes too so sitting in the heat in jeans is just AWFUL! I want to wear cute shorts for sure!!!
I love the shorter skorts too! I found some really cute ones at Penny's last year, even though I am not a jc penny's fan ... they did have cute ones so I bough 4 of them, just can't wear them 'yet'. Maybe another 5 or so pounds I can wear them!! whoo hoo! They are cute & comfy with those shelf tanks & flippies lol
In October we are going on our 1st cruise! I could do a cartwheel over that right now ... just 'can't' lol I have lots going on for summer & can't WAIT!! I CANNOT let myself down now!!
I'm going to Disney Land in August with my family. I want to be able to do all the walking and go on all the rides without being worried about not fitting in the seats...that is one of my biggest fears. Is that weird at all? I'm excited to look good in LA...shorts and flip flops...i don't know if I'll be tank top ready by then...we shall see.
In *sort of* summer...I'm going to be in a wedding on April 17th..I ordered my bridesmaid dress already unfortunately...I hoping itll be too big by the time the wedding comes. I was seriously embarassed by the size I bought.
I also graduate college in May so Im hoping to be slim enough to not be embarassed by my graduation pics.
Graduating from my masters in May, going to the Harry Potter theme park at the end of may (hopefully I'll be able to fit in the stupid ride seats), laying around by my mom's pool, and being in my sisters wedding in June (secretly hoping I will be smaller than her by then...)
I won't be at goal, but I'm planning to road trip it to Michigan and see my best friend that I met at Camp Lejeune when our husbands were in the USMC. I haven't seen them since 2006!!! I'm sure she'll be wanting to take our kids to the lake a lot so I hope to be a little more comfortable in a bathing suit, lol.
I also plan to take my kids to Branson sometime, along with my parents and little brother.
