What are YOU looking forward to.... Just thinking of some of the things I'm looking forward to doing when all this huge amount of weight is gone and wondered what you are all looking forward to too?
Here's a few of mine....
I am looking forward to....
Being able to wipe my bum without standing like a sumo warrior over a loo!
Not being stared at by small children, old people and basically everyone in between
Knowing that if they ARE staring it's NOT because I am fat!
... your turn now!

I'm looking forward to eating- no seriously, I'm looking forward to blending into a crowd and not feeling like the hulk next to my petite work colleagues
I am looking forward to not feeling like a 'freak' and be able to walk past windows,mirrors,etc and NOT looking away, so I don't have to look at myself.
People treating me as an equal rather than somebody they believe to be a 2nd class citizen, just because I am fat.
But, most of all I am looking forward to being comfortable in my skin-no aches and pains and total freedom of movement

That's the one that I've most enjoyed since reaching goal. No doubt about it. I've never really cared too much about image, but being able to get around, jump up the stairs 2-3 at a time, sitting cross legged at school....just generally being more flexible. Even if I was fit before, the fat got in the way.But, most of all I am looking forward to being comfortable in my skin-no aches and pains and total freedom of movement
Lost 8 stone 2004/5. Now a Cambridge Weight Plan Consultant.
Fantastic things..
I also look forward to .....being able to buy clothes from somewhere other than Yours, Evans and the USA (courtesy of the internet!)
.... wanting to go clothes shopping!
...looking dead sexy in sexy undies!

I wrote a really long list of reasons why I wanted to lose weight at the start of my diet! I felt this was important as part of the "mental" journey.
I would write it up... but it'd take aaaages!
Great motivational thing to do!
(btw.. whats the caribbean adventure FFF??)
I'm looking forward to getting into my smallest clothes again!!! I got to target in May but am now 15lbs up grrrrr, so some of my clothes just don't look right on me!! Especially blouses as my boobs are huge and tend to be the first place i put the weight on!!!!!

Ditto Russiandoll! Once I burnt my stomach on the radiator which is on the wall next to our toilet. I looked at it the other day, and remembered. There is now a very respectable gap between my stomach and said radiator!
Turning over in bed in a smaller space is a great feeling too. (You will know what I mean if you had the same trouble I did)

Im looking forward to someone choosing to sit next to me on a bus... Every time I got on all the people looked out the window hoping I didn't choose to sit next to them.. Can't wait to welcome a person to sit next to me
Oh westhill I totally agree its the bed thing that kicked me into gear about my weight. I couldn't turn without using my leg on the bedside table to wedge my huge body up..
Looking forward to......not having to "rearrange" my boobs in bed so that I can sleep comfortably and not strangle myself!

I'm also looking forward to...
NOT being ignored in shops by snooty skinny-bint shop assistants who treat me like sh*t!
