What are you looking forward to?
I am absolutely committed (this time) to losing the ridiculous amount of weight I have put on in the last 7 years. I realized that there are a LOT of things that I have stopped doing because of the additional weight. And I want to use these things as goals.. it's not only about feeling better and looking better - it's about a ton of other little things that I have LITERALLY STOPPED MYSELF FROM DOING FOR MORE THAN HALF A DECADE! Like:
I can't wait to shop in the regular size departments again. (It's been a LONG time since I was able to wear Ann Taylor/Banana Republic/Gap..)
I can't wait to wear skirts again. (I am paranoid about my ankles looking fat)
I can't wait to feel CONFIDENT in lingerie again (I wear it for Rob.. but turn out the lights as fast as possible!)
I can't wait to go swimming again (I haven't been in a bathing suit since I got pregnant with my oldest son)
I can't wait to go skiing and snowboarding again. (I refuse to buy new gear at this weight)
I can't wait to go to Great Adventure again (I'm always paranoid that I won't fit on the rides).
I can't wait to go horse back riding again (I used to ride all the time.. but I'm afraid of hurting the horse at my current weight).
What are YOU looking forward to doing once you reach your goal weight?

Re: What are you looking forward to?
I'm looking forward to putting on the way-too-short khaki skirt I used to wear to class senior year of college (I miss my Xenadrine days   ). I look at it now and it seems so tiny! I probably won't wear it outside of the house, but I can still prance around my living room in it

Ditto this for my SO .
Also, i cant wait to NOT see that nasty roll that haunts me every time I put in jeans.
I cant wait to see myself in the mirror and think 'Heck girl..you look good!"

Re: What are you looking forward to?
This is a great post!
I want to wear a bikini (NEVER done this before). I look forward to enjoying shopping and trying things on and having them look good. Not having to look at every angle in the mirror and convince myself that the bulges aren't that noticeable. 
I notice at sample sales I can't enjoy myself because the sizes are small, and I usually can't fit into them. Bargain shopping will be fun again!!

Re: What are you looking forward to?
Shopping for an entirely new wardrobe. Out with the old and in with the new! I am getting rid of ALL my crappy old clothes and establishing a high quality, classic wardrobe. I want to look like Katie Holmes
Running effortlessly for miles and miles and miles...
Meeting people that have never seen me before and thinking I am naturally that way.
Buying a sexy pair of knee high boots. I have never been able to fit into a pair of boots like that before.

My thoughts exactly (except i did once own knee high boots- but they were the stretchy fake leather kind)
I want to be able to go out whenever I want to bars, clubs, anywhere where I need to look presentable and not have to agonize for days over what to wear so I don't feel like the "fat girl" of the group and think people are staring at me thinking "she shouldn't be wearing that."
Someday. . .

I took this stuff in college...I got the shakes soooo bad from it! Then when I stopped, I had headaches from the caffeine withdrawals.

Re: What are you looking forward to?
-Wearing a bikini and looking GOOD in it!
-Getting rid of my "muffin top" and having my defined waist back.
-Fitting into my smaller sized designer clothes again(that are sitting upstairs in a closet collecting dust) that I haven't been able to wear for years!
-In general, feeling good about myself and looking good at the same time.
-Getting my muscle tone back.
-Being in the best physical shape I can be for DS and DH, so I have more energy and am healthier overall!
