  • -I want to wear white shirts! I only look good in white when I can get rid of my muffin top.
    - I want to wear cute sundresses this summer.

    - I want to feel confident enough to wear tank tops.

    - I don't ever want someone to think I'm pregnant again! It's happened and it is mortifying.

    - I want to set a healthy example for my 4 year old daughter.

    - I want to look hot for my husband!!!!

    - I don't want to have to try on 10 outfits to find one that hides my rolls.

    And probably a million more....
  • Quote: - I don't want to continue being "the fat friend"
    - I want to not have to think about every single detail when I'm getting dressed e.g. these pants give me a muffin top so I have to wear thisandthat to cover myself up, this shirt shows off my fat hands so I have to wear something over it.. and so on

    - I want frenemies to envy me, the same ones that take comfort in looking better than me since they know they aren't as smart. yes, I'm that superficial.

    - I want aquaintants surprised faces and enthusiastic comments (especially ones of the opposite sex, who are usually more sincere )
  • ** I want to feel comfortable in my team uniform (booty shorts & Racerback jersey)

    ** I don't want to change shirts 13 times because none of them fit right

    ** I want to wear my old jeans that have leather lacing from ankle to hip without my fat squishing through the laces.

    ** I want to be able to wear my corsets out again without remorse.
  • This is a fun post

    Ok.....

    I want to no longer be the "fat friend"

    I want to wear skinny jeans!!!! More specific, I want to wear skinny jeans and Uggs. I have the Uggs, but I would never subject anyone to having to see my fat butt in anything spandex at this point. I don't care if the look is sooo out of style when I get there...I am buying skinny jeans, damnit!!!

    I want to be able to wear a bathing suit WITHOUT an extra layer on top. I am realistic and after 2 kids/c-sections I doubt I will ever wear a bikini, But it would be nice to ditch the tshirt and shorts that I usually wear over my suit.

    I want my thighs to not touch when I walk...that would be awesome!!!

    I want to be a sexy wife.

    I am sure I have a few million more....but time for work.
  • -I want to fit into my teeny-tiny GAP jeans I bought a few years ago
    -I want to be less self-conscious about my strong jaw
    -Cheekbones??? I never had them, even at my lowest weight, but you never know!
    -I want to *feel pretty*!
  • -I want to have dimples in my knees and for them to not touch.
    -I want to be able to wear a tank top and jeans out of the house this summer without worrying about my fat, flabby arms.
    -I want a flat stomach (or one less bulgy).
    -I want to look awesome in my swimsuit this summer.
    -I want to wear a size 12.
    -I want to attract a suitable mate.
  • ooooohhh, where to start!

    ~I want to be a size 6, or even a size 4.

    ~I want to feel confident that when I put something on and it doesn't look fabulous on me, that it's just not my style . . NOT because I have back fat or belly rolls that mess up the lines that the designer meant it to have.

    ~I want to feel confident to allow my real style to show through, instead of buying clothes simply because they hide various trouble spots.

    ~I'm short and to guys I'm very petite and cute when I am in great shape and at a good weight BUT when I am the least bit heavy I can look like the Wal-mart smiley face very easily!

    ~I want to be the 30 something chick that the other women are secretly are a little jealous of.

    ~I want to look sexy in 'slouchy' clothes like sweats and an oversized shirt.

    ~I want to be a good example for the rest of my family that struggles with weight issues.

    ~I don't dress to show my figure all the time, but I want it to be the case, where when I do, guys think "holy crap, I didn't realize she was so hawt!"

    ~I want to quit wanting all of this AND HAVE IT!!
  • 1) I want to be able to smile when I look in the mirror and say "damn, I'm hot!"
    2) I want to be able to wear skinny jeans comfortably again!
    3) I want to be able to feel sexy in my bra and panties.

    My goal was never to be "skinny" because, well, that's just not me. My goal is to be a size 12; some people think this is fat but I really don't care. I have a big butt (I've had it since I was a little girl!) and I'm always going to be curvy. I'm okay with that, I would just like to lose some of this excess weight and tone up. I want to be comfortable in my own skin again.
  • I also don't want to be the "fat friend"

    I want to go to concerts and buy the fitted girl's tshirts (almost there!)

    I want my boobs to stick out further than my belly

    I want a swimsuit that doesn't have a skirt bottom

    I want Spanx to be an optional piece of clothing
  • I loathe being the fat friend

    I want to be able to cross my legs comfortably

    I want to be able to throw on anything and still think I look cute

    I want to be able to wear a skirt! I don't wear skirts or shorts, because frankly I'd look disgusting. I haven't worn any since I was like 14 and even then I was in 18/20.

    I want to wear a bathing suit and feel comfortable. I haven't warn one in years, and when I did...I wasn't comfortable.

    I want to put more time in to my appearance. Sometimes I do, most days I don't. I'll put on makeup and think I look halfway decent, then get somewhere else and see myself and be like, "ok, that's not what my mirror showed me earlier"

    I just want to be smaller, healthier, sexier, with more confidence.
  • Oh, how fun!

    1.) I want to be able to ride any of the rides at a carnival (even though I'm too chicken)

    2.) I want to be able to fly on an airplane and be able to spend all my time worrying about dying in a fiery crash instead of worrying about whether or not they're going to point me out as the fat woman who needs two seats and a seat belt extender.

    3.) I'm short and I want to look petite and cute - not fat and round.

    OMG that was funny, Sunshine! I mean about picking the worrying

    I'll agree also to - Yoga pants for errands around town!

    how about...being confident enough to wear a loose, not long shirt at work, and when you have to reach up for something, and the shirt rides up to show your midriff, you are proud to have it show your hard work. And not embarrassed at all for them to see your belly piercing either!
  • This thread is so motivating!

    I want to:

    - Be able to comfortably wear a pair of size 12 (UK) jeans

    - When there's no seats left around the campfire, to be able to consider sitting on someone's knee and not worry about how heavy I am

    - To be able to buy boots that aren't 'wide calf'

    - For my boobs and my butt to be in proportion

    - To be able to run a 5K in less than 30mins

    - For certain guy friends to secretly (or maybe not so secretly ) take notice for a change. ok this ones a lil shallow, but a girl can dream can't she?

    19. I want my face to be thinner, I think I actually look pretty when it's not so dang round…
    20. I don't want to feel bad for being not only overweight but short, too…not a good combo…
    21. I want to be able to cross my legs…like really cross them and not just fail miserably at it...
    22. The worst one of all (IMO)…I sort of want that guy to notice...
  • I love this, my reasons:
    I'm over 50 and I don't want to be the fat old lady, I want to be that sexy senior in about 10 years.
    Class reunion coming up this summer
    I want a tatoo, not sure what but I want one.
    I want to be a runner so I need to run at least a 5k.
    To live to be 100 or older.
