BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS!

Ugh, my jeans ALWAYS get holes in the inner thighs. Unless I spend a ton of money on really expensive ones, they ALWAYS wear through there. I can't wait to have a space between my thighs. I haven't had one since I was a little kid...

1. shopping
2. shopping
3. shopping LOL I have plenty others but shopping is one thing I have doing while being fat.

God, I know exactly what you mean! I get so I don't want to spend my hard earned money on clothes for myself when I look dumpy in them, so I spend it on something else..... like dinner. *facepalm*

I got another couple:

I want to go on a hike up this certain mountain. I did it a few years ago, just barely. I want to actually ENJOY it this time!

Also, I can't wait to wear bikini underwear without having all sorts of rolls hanging out.

I have one.....it might not be that high up on anyone else's list but it is the only thing I really want.

1. Being able to open the door.

There's a lot behind that. I don't mean a metaphorical door or that I'm incapable of actually opening a door......but this one in particular...I can't wait for the day that I can open it.

LOL Now you have me curious, Misty!

Wow. It never even crossed my mind that someday I would be able to wear a bikini.... holy moly, that thought just blew my mind! Watch out world... next summer I'll be on the beach in a BiKiNi! hahahaha

And DoV, thanks for this thread. Last night I wanted SOOO bad to go to the corner store for some chocolate, but instead I thought of my shrinking thighs instead. Went to bed with a craving, woke up with a craving -- of egg whites!!

Here's an obvious one I forgot:

Seeing all my clothes get baggy, and having a hard time keeping my pants up!

YAY, BROAD!!! I'm so happy to hear that!
