I hope that makes sense. Like what are you the most excited about on your body to change? Or what has already changed thast makes you the most happy?
For me, of course I've got my stomache, but surprisingly enough, I would have to say my breasts. I have always had the big ones in the family. I'm am really excited to just get the back into a C cup. I hope they shrink like the rest of me
Dunno if a thread like this has ever been posted, but if so, sorry for the repeat! Just wanted to start my own thread for the rookies and pros alike!
I have to agree with you, its my stomach. I want it to go away. Once I have lost all of my weight I will probably have to have surgery to get all of the loose skin removed. BUT I do have a LAP again!! so that is very exciting to me, I know that must sound crazy but I could never put anything on my lap because my stomach was always there. Its the little things that happen to your body that amazes me.
Yes, I have some love handles, and some back fat (that would be the second one on the list) but all that can be hidden by clothing. Not really plausible to wear turtlenecks in summer tho!
I wanna get rid of what I call my "pooch". It's the area of my stomach below my belly button. And it's always the last to go. I also just want some confidence. I have none right now.
Physically: I can't wait for my stomach, thighs and arms to shrink.
Mentally: I'm excited to regain my confidence. I also can't wait to be treated differently by strangers. When I was thinner, I felt that I was more respected. I always felt that people assume negative stereotypes now that I'm heavy.

I couldn't agree more on the "treated differently" thing. I work at a Chevrolet dealership. I started back in 2008, and I wasn't thin thin, but I was a good shape and size. mostly men work here and they all really liked me and invited me out and talked to me all the time. I got laid off from slow business in Dec. 2009, and returned August 2010, weighing about what I do now, 40 lbs overweight and about 25 more than I did back then. It's completely surprising the difference in respect I have at work now. I will say hi to them, and they won't even turn their heads to look at me when they say hi back. It makes me feel completely horrible. But in a way, I'm thankful for 2 reasons. 1) I knew that it was time to lose weight and 2) I knew those shallow losers aren't my real friends.
Needless to say, once I have my rockin' body, I'm going to find a job to match!
I am most excited to be comfortable in my own skin. I always envied the girls who could just throw on any old outfit and not have to worry about how it made them look.
As for physically, I can't remember the last time I wasn't sucking in my stomach. lol I want my stomach to look like that WITHOUT me pulling it in. And my upper arms, so I can wear tank tops comfortably.
My legs! I'm very much a pear shape, which is lucky sometimes since I still have a waist, but my thighs are huge and jello-y. I know that even at my GW I'll be bottom heavy, but it'll be a lot less dramatic than it is now.
