I really want to be able to wear tank tops without fear of making people vomit. :)

I really want to be able to shop wherever I want.

I really want to feel good about myself in a bathing suit.

I really want to be someone that other people think is attractive (this is horribly shallow, probably, but it would just be nice to feel like people weren't grossed out by me, but thought I was somewhat nice-looking...)

I want to be able to wear a skirt in summer without having my thighs rub together and get sore

I would like to take up hip hop dancing....

I went to a class once but when I saw my wobbly reflection in the full length mirrors trying to bust-a-move amongst georgous lean dancers.... well, lets just say I Haven't been back



:cheer: ( this is what i want to do)

I want to: look good in jeans (no buldge), feel confident, and turn heads : ) i've noticed lately when im driving i get lots of looks from guys in cars, but they cant tell how big i am when all they see is the shoulders up and i carry most of my weight on my bottom half. A plus to lossing 30 lbs is that i dont have a double chin anymore (unlike my avatar picture, im planning on changing it soon) So that def is boosting my confidence!

I want to fit into size 12 jeans. Most women can do that quite easily when they're 170 or less, but even though I'm almost 5'8" my hips are gigantic and I have to be 155 or under. Then I'll be able to shop at places like Express and the Limited, where 12 is the biggest size they carry!

I want to wear skirts and dresses without wearing spandex shorts underneath so that my inner thighs won't rub together and chafe.

I want to participate in winter guard next season and not have to worry about what the uniform will be and whether or not it will make me look huge.

I want to walk around on campus and not feel like I stick out because I'm so much bigger than all the other girls.

and finally, I want to walk down the aisle in a beautiful wedding dress and feel amazing on my wedding day! (Oct 6, 2007).

I want to be able to trust myself enough to enjoy life...

I'm working on it but I know I have a long way to go before I can say taking care of myself is second nature.

Wearing a smaller pant size would be a boost to set me on my way.. ;)

I want to be a size 5 and be tight enough to feel comfy with my inner thighs in a bathing suit.

I want to wear a bikni because I never have, but that wont be possible until I have a tummy tuck * loose skin, aint that a bit...:censored:* Two kids and weight 260lbs when you are 5'4 does a number on the skin. Im lucky its as tight as it is.. I have about 2-3inches of loose hangy skin.

What dont i want? I want to be able to be able to change cloths infront of my hubby wiht out being imbarrassed, i want to be able to wear throw back skirts without having my fat legs rubbing together, and most of all i want my self esteem, my self confidence and my pride back.

Just be happy with myself.

be able to buy pretty bras!

I carry all my weight up top and I hate having to buy 'granny' bras, or pay huge fees for bras bought at special boutiques that cater to the top heavy.

I've had these babies since I was 14 and I've definetly learned to love 'em but I wish I could gift wrap them better for those who get to take a peek ;)

I want to be at a healthy weight with BMI less than 24. I want to qualify for a liver transplant now that I am healthier. I want to send all my Lane Bryant catalogs to my sweet sister, who could use them now. I want to have a healthier life in general and be around to see my children marry and have me some beautiful grandchildren.

I want to be healthy and to look healthy. Not too skinny but not big either. Currently my loss has been disproportionate. My bottom half is a size 12! My top is huge. Hoping that will come down soon and I don't look so lopsided.

I'd like to feel more confident about myself, look more marketable for job hunting, be able to buy cute clothes - anywhere, and be quicker on the tennis court!

Oof! Marketable for job hunting... I hear you there. Sometimes I wonder if that is why I have had several interviews and then never heard anything even though I keep calling to follow up.
