Default Question of the Day 2/13

Well, girls and... girls... it's everyone's favorite time of the day-- time for the question of the day!

What is one thing (besides buying new clothes) that you look forward to doing as you close in on your goal weight that you don't/can't normally do?

I loooove roller coasters and things of that nature, but standing in those long lines at the amusement park always ends up torturing my feet and lower back. So I can't wait until the day I can stand and walk around for hours without being blinded by pain by the end of the night and the next day.

I can't wait to look taller!! Since I am 5'7 I am tall, but when you are a little overweight you look shorter than you are.

Mine pertains to roller coasters as well, but waiting in lines is the easy part--for me, I want to be able to wait in line CONFIDENTLY knowing that I will actually fit safely in the seat/restraint. I'm extremely afraid to go to an amusement park right now for fear that I will be laughed off a ride in which I will not fit.

Jill: Love your new avatar! It's adorable.

I live a few miles from the beach, so I can't wait to confidently be able to wear a bathing suit. I just want to be able to enjoy myself and not be self conscious. I've never truly enjoyed a day at the beach yet.

I can't wait until I can wear a two piece bathing suit. No bikini, but maybe a tankini.

Also, I want to be able to wear a sexy dress for my college graduation

I still get so tired after 2 minutes. But I'm looking forward to increasing my time as I get closer to my goal.

haha, I already wear a 2-piece bathing suit, but the top and bottom overlap so nothing shows (or hangs out!)

jdogg--thanks! In addition to other things, the avatar seemed V-Day appropriate

Hi canadian girl.

I don't know if this counts, but I'm really looking forward to being able to lie on my side without feeling my stomach flop down next to me.

Feel comfortable sitting down without my stomach going over my pants.

I'm hoping to improve my posture as my breasts shrink some more... I also second the lying down and not feeling my belly flop down beside me!
