Oh I pray all of your goals come true everyone.

I want everything you all said. From fitting in a plane without the extension belt to crossing my legs and then some.

But most importantly, I want my children to have Mommy around for a long, long, long time cause she'll be healthier then. That's not asking for much is it?

Cheers,

I love threads like these, they are so inspirational!

I want to . . .

Go shopping at Limited Too and not be out of place.
Wear a swimsuit, in public, without a skirt.
Look thin even in baggy clothes.
Wear a cute costume to the WonderCon and Fanime!

O.K., I am at a red light and this obnoxious guy comes up next to me and my buddy and asks of our pickup truck, "that thing got a hemmi in it?" "You're about to find out!" I reply sarcastically. As the light turns green, we both squeal off and we blow him away. As I get to the next light, a dozen scantily clad cheerleaders come running up to my truck...
and that is my low carb dream! mad

I thought of something else while working out at Curves. After working out on a machine you have to do some sort of aerobic exercise on a recovery board. I refuse to do aerobic "type" steps. I dance so that when I get into my little black dress with fisnet pantyhose and spiked high healed shoes, I am dragging my husband to the dance floor and shake my "little" groove thang.

I'm with Doreen on the thigh rub thing. I look at women's thighs (discreetly!!! LOL) to see just what I can expect ultimately.

Hmm. Am I the only one with this weird minor obsession of staring at other women's bodies?

And I would LOVE to be able to design a latex dress for myself without having to design it to hide things.

I wanna feel little again.

I used to be petite...I'm still 5'4'', but I am not little 'around'. I have always
or almost always enjoyed being little and now I always feel like a big moose beside someone who is little.

I hope you can understand what I mean?

Uh Delilah, I stare too don't worry. But know I find myself thinking when I stare, I wonder if this person use to be fat too and now look at them. I use to look at skinny people and just hate that they got to be thin and not me. But since I've joined this forum I've recently changed my opinion on that. You just never know if that skinny person you just walked passed has just lost 100 or more pounds. Now I just look and say, that's what I want to look like, and I will.

Just thought of another dream last night.

I would like to stop cooking. Ever since I started Atkins I've been cooking 3 meals a day. I'm tired of standing in front of the stove.

Good luck to all, we can do it!

To be able to lay flat on my back and not have my kids play with the "jello" belly. They will smack it to see how many waves they can make.

To have a picture taken that doesn't make me question who it is. I attended my daughters violin recital and could not believe it was me standing next to her.

To be so sexy that I know it. To never question my beauty on the outside again and still knowing the beauty I have inside.

To wear a bathing suit without the skirt too !!! I am 32 for goodness sake and shouldn't have to cover it all up.

To race my kids to the car or the house and be able to say "I win !".

Hmm my dream...
I want to be able to walk into a 'normal' store and buy clothes... and not to have to worry that they don't make things in a XXL or above a size 20.
*sigh*
Is that too much to ask?

I haven't been able to do that since I was in gradeschool... and when you're 10 and shopping for the largest size availible... it's not much fun then either!

Oh!!! and one more... I want to feel healthy enough to have a baby!
I know that I CAN now if I really wanted, even being overweight, but I'm waiting until I'm as healthy as I can be.

What is your weight loss DREAM ?

To just get there...... and get off this darn rollercoaster! Trying to loose weight has become an obsession with me, all I think about now is food.

It would be nice if this train could finally roll into the station and I could get off, My dream?..... I just want to get there, I feel like I am wasting my life wishin and hoping.

Another thing, I wish diet books didn't make it sound so darn easy. There is alot more "to us" then what they write in those books.
