a leather jacket which i got!
it's unfortunately maybe 1/2 size too small around the bust but it's "doable" and i'm keeping it esp since they are out of the next size up (i'm a few "trouble spots" away from goal, lol but pretty much there) but it's so awesome to have goal clothes!!!

I am loving all of these replies, so much incentive for us to all keep going!

As I get closer to my goal I am realizing that I will never really be completely satisfied with my body, my shape will always be my shape no matter what size. My goal is to figure out how to dress what I have in the most flattering way. Like some one else said, I want to buy clothing that I really love. I want a closet full of clothing that I have not just settled on. I also want to be realistic. I don't think I can pull off a bikini etc.

I want to get a closet full of this: :-)

I didn't plan for this, but it's totally freaking awesome to be able to buy cheap, nerdy hoodies from the boy's section. My life is complete now

when/if i get to goal, i want to be able to rock a pair of tall black heeled boots and a miniskirt and take my DH out for some fun on the town on a saturday night

My motivational piece of clothing is a t-shirt I want. I know - I'm a classy dresser!

When I was younger I would dream about wearing tight torn jeans, a tight white top/T-shirt and converse all stars. The epitome of simplicity
Now I just want to buy leather boots and be able to look good not just ok.

What do you mean when/IF!?!?!?!

I haven't thought much of a particular outfit, however I would like to wear a costume that represents my namesake at some point.

The one stupid thing that turned out to be kind of a big deal ... for years at my work, vendors would give us t-shirts with their company logo on them. I was always too shy to say "XL is too small, I need at least a 1X or probably a 2X!" So I had probably seven corporate-logo t-shirts in size XL that I was oddly delighted to finally be able to wear! Oh - they are all roomy now, and will soon be on the discard pile.

For years I dreamt of being able to wear a simple pair of shorts without worrying about the 'rising up' situation and seeing cellulite on my legs. Even though it's winter I could wear a pair of shorts now. No more inner thigh issues and no more visible cellulite!

Now I am quickly approaching my final goal I'm dreaming of wearing a bikini comfortably. I'm almost there, but with a couple more months of weight training to tighten things up a little more, I'm confident I will get be ready for the spring/summer! Can't believe I'm actually saying this!

I would like to feel comfortable in a nice dress but I really have no where to wear it too. I can imagine putting on a dress to do my chores, food always splashes on me while cooking. Maybe I should hope to wear a shirt without oils stains on it. Lol
I seen a dress I loved in the Guess store window. My hubby was not with me because he was looking in other stores but when we got home he said there was this dress in the guess window, and I thought it would be nice for u. Too funny we both picked the same dress. As I passed it I though, hmm is anyone getting married soon so I could wear that.
My sis in law also wants me to order a dress from her website, so I guess a dress and some heels is what I want to wear. 4 inch heels cause I didn't even wear past an inch to my wedding.

I'm working on getting to goal by the end of this year and when I do, I am going shopping for an utterly fabulous little red dress. New Year's Eve 2013, here I come! lol

I have a desigual coat I got on amazon that should be a 12 so I should be able to shoehorn myself into the top half like I can with my other 12's... (it's not just me that keeps trying on my clothes to "see of they fit yet"... right? ). The arms are so tiny! That thing is an 8/10. Loooong way off!

Even further away is my being able to dress up as Lightning from Final Fantasy 13 (for Halloween... or just whenever lol). That's a serious goal weight situation.

Most of the clothes I've bought recently that I believed would fit me are 7-14lbs away. In about 3 months I will have a seriously improved selection of clothes! Oh look, that coincides with my birthday. Woo

I would love to be able to pull off clothes from Anthropologie. I currently can only pull off things such as their sweaters. I have a boyish build as well as extra weight, so their clothes aren't compatible with my body right now.
