Default What are you most looking forward to about loosing weight?

I can't wait to be able to wear my engagement and wedding rings again! I outgrew them about 4 months into my pregnancy and put it down to water retention, but in fact I actually went up 4 dress sizes and God knows how many ring sizes... My rings are size L (US size 5) and I can't get them on past my first knuckle! I can't wait to slide them on and be able to swivvel them around with my thumb like I used to

What are you looking forward to about being down to size?

Being able to wear skirts in summer without the dreaded thigh chafe.

Being able to bend down easily and pick up a dropped pencil without going red in the face.

TMI alert - Being able to walk around Rome on a hot June day and not feel as though I've peed myself because I'm so sweaty and uncomfortable after sitting on a plastic chair in a pavement cafe.

Being able to embrace my shins...I've NEVER been able to do that.

Being an athlete, especially a runner. I tried to start running in January but I'm not there yet. I ended up hurting my knee. I can't wait until I can try again.

ummmm, yeah the clothes shopping is going to be really freakin' awesome too!

I can't wait to not be so winded when I go hiking with my hubby. I also can't wait to see some of my friends I haven't seen in a long time and look like my HS self.

Feeling comfortable in a sleeveless shirt. I haven't worn a sleeveless shirt in public for over 16 years! Oh, and I guess I should throw in a bathing suit too.

Going clothes shopping.

I'm really looking forward to being able to wear fashionable, nice clothes that fit well, rather than whatever sack that hides my fat best. I'm so tired of oversized sweaters, t-shirts, and mom jeans!

I'm just looking forward to looking neat in my clothes and not wanting to crawl into my little hole when summer comes around.

Where to start!No thigh chafing, no excessive sweating, and being able to shop at normal-sized clothing stores instead of Plus-sized!

Feeling better so I can move around and spend time outside gardening, hiking maybe, bicycling, camping...all the stuff I used to do and never even think about. I'll never take it for granted again, that's for sure!
