I love reading these- especially all the DONEs. And of course many of them reminded me of other goals of mine!

Today- a verrrry short term goal? To have my doctor put me on mushes or at least add cottage cheese, non thinned yogurt, and sugar free pudding to my thin liquids!

I love reading everyones goals, it's great to see most goals are accomplished or close to it. I had one real goal to cross my legs like a lady. It seems so silly but I would dream of being able to cross my legs, I would imagine how good it would feel to be able to do it. I would even watch other people crossing their legs like I'm some kind of stalker. A few months ago I was able to cross my legs and I sit like that all the time. I know I sound odd. Anyway my next goal not as weird is to be under 200 pounds which is 5 pounds away.

One of the things that I have always want to do is swing dance but have been too self consious. That is one of my goals I want to swing dance with my husband and for him to be able to throw me around like a rag doll LOL. And lets not forget one of those retro dresses that are so freaking cute from that era as well without it looking like a tent.

Another is to see someone I have known who hasnt seen me in a while and for them to NOT recognize me. Doesnt matter who.

I have an Amazing show horse! I have been showing him in driving instead of riding because I have gained so much weight. My expensive show suit will not fit and I feel too heavy to be on his back very often but he can pull lots of weight in the cart with no problem. I want to show him under saddle again and not feel self conscious at the horse shows with all the pretty, thin riders. A 50 pound loss will make this possible for me! I can not wait. Some jaws are going to drop next year when we trot into the ring under saddle again!

when I joined my TOPS group they had a scale that only went up to 300 pounds, and I weight like 380, so my biggest goal is to be able to weigh on that scale!

I've been skinny and I've been fat and skinny is better!!! I have many goals, but two really important ones to me are:

1) Do the zipline in Branson, MO.

2) Sit on the floor to play with my great-grandson and be able to get up without making a spectacle of myself.

Oh man, that one is one of my biggest fears. I don't know what's wrong with me.

I really really love these posts... they feel so hopeful and full of promise.....

But I have to say that sometime they are also a little bit sad.

Some of these goals are doable regardless of weight! I want all of us to be healthy.... but don't wait for the scale to tell you what you can and can't do!!!

pcos_chick, you are soooooo right!

My weight has effected me all my teenage and adult years; regardless of how heavy I have been it has always been TOO heavy! Even when I was 140lb! I know this is a psychological thing for me... and I am working on it and hoping that I am making some progress... I have to say, some days are better than others, but in general it is better now!

[samantha209 19]

to go to a bbq and not worry about breaking the seats

lets just say I never want to worry about breaking furniture again...at least not for weight related reasons. WOO HOO
