Personally I have a huge list.......

Here's a few.....

I'd luv to be able to go into "normal" clothes shops and buy up to the minute styles without breaking the bank on one outfit.

To go on holiday and not worry if the seatbelt on the plane is going to fasten or not.

To get up from my sunlounger and go to the bar without covering up.

To wear gorgeous, sexy high heels and knee high boots.

To walk into a room and turn heads for the right reason!!lol

To luv myself as much as my husband does.

etc etc....

Curious to see what others are looking for.....dont be shy..

G-Man

Although I have only 25lbs off so far I was able to walk into a high street shop last week and buy myself a couple of new shirts and ties. It felt brilliant to not have to depend on my usual "for fat and tall people" store, where I usually have to do my shopping online!

I also have a work seminar to go to in London in March and the whole airplane seat thing will hopefully not be as embarrassing as it has been in the past, so much so that I have avoided aeroplanes like the plague in the past few years.

I have to say though that the biggest thing for me so far has to be the way I feel about myself, not what other people think of me.

Hi,

What a great thread!!

Mines are -

To wear high heels

To not have to always cover my arms

To not have to go to parties and friends houses and sit in my jacket all night.

To not be in tears due to fat photos.

To be able to wear vest top and shorts around the house and to bed.

To not having to get my friends to pay for my clothes in the "fat shops" because i'm too embarrased about the sizes.

To go on a night out and not spend the whole night wishing that i'd made more effort to lose weight.

To not be jealous of any female smaller than me


God my list could go on forever, its interesting to think about it, as i've never realised before how much it changes your life when your overweight.

I'm looking forward to lots of things. Mainly looking forward to my face looking nice again. Alot of people's faces look ok, but my weight gain made my face look bad. So that's the main one for me, to be able to smile nicely for a photo again, without having a fat face. I think the next would be to buy clothes from the shops I love. The next is really to feel comfortable sat on the plane, without feeling fat, and struggling with the tray and belt. There are many more things, but these are the main ones.
