- kayaking: I've been too afraid I wouldn't fit in the hole.

- wear boots that come up to my knee! I plan to buy a few pairs when I get to non-wide calf size

Be happy with myself. Which I am

[KristieAtkinson 588]

You guys' lists are great! I may steal a few of those! :-)

All the above except cross my knees and be able to stay in that sitting position for awhile. DONE

[LipstickLady 25,682]

Great list! I did a mud run on Saturday and was actually able to haul my fat ass up and over all the obstacles without getting winded!

SO MUCH FUN.

[Madam Reverie 2,958]

My bucket list is more emotional than a 'to do' list.

• I want to buy obscenely expensive clothing.
  
• I want to be thinner than my sister for the first time in my life. (and revel in the shock on her face when she finally sees me)
  
• I want to bump into my ex fiance and his midget, size minus 4 wife and feel ab-so-lute-ly bloody fabulous!
  
• I would like, for once, for someone not to say 'you're a big girl'.
  
• I would love to try on a wedding dress and feel like the most beautiful girl in the world - not a frump who fights back tears, feeling like a failure.
  
• I would like to feel positive about my forthcoming nuptials and being in front of people and their cameras.
  
• I want to be physically 'normal' and happy.
  

That is all....

1) I want to walk without pain in my legs / knees. 2)I want to run and play with my daughter 3) I want to ride a bike (with my daughter) 4) I want to grow really, really old. 5) I never want to feel self conscience about my weight again

[McButterpants 2,846]

I want to...(in no particular order)

Walk into a room and not worry or think about if I'm the fattest one there.

Feel attractive.

Have the energy to be a mom that can do active things with her son - maybe embarrass him by breaking out into a river dance in front of his friends..

Take the 3 mile uphill hike up to the lake.

Run. Run with wild abandonment.

Have my picture taken - there has to be some documented proof that I existed.

Smile. A lot. I have a lot of time to make up for.

Shop for clothes in the Misses section, not in the plus department that has the worse selection and prints that look like they belong on a 1970's vintage couch or window covering. (Sore spot, obviously)

Sit in a chair and not worry that the creek I'm hearing is the chair asking for help or a warning it's going to break.

Sit in a booth...comfortably.

Have my wedding rings fit comfortably and not look like they are forced on a Breakfast sausage.

Take a walk without fearing some smart ass kid isn't going to yell something out the window of his car at me like "Speed up!" "It's going to take more than a walk!"

Not fear seeing old friends.

Be proud of myself.

OK - that's enough for now.

Gear to see this thread. A couple of things that have been on my bucket list:

Lose a. Minimum of 100 lbs. and keep it off.

Go to a spa and not worry about the masseuse measuring my fat.

Wear an expensive pair of heels (aka "****" shoes)

Wear a knit dress and not worry about lumps and bumps.

Maybe meet Prince Charming and have a marvelous love affair.

And, most of all, live out the rest of my life healthy and without pills.

I love reading everybody's lists. Here are a few of my bucket list items:

1. Walk without pain & be able to keep up with my friends when we're out.

2. Sit with my legs crossed

3. Be able to wear high heels again

4. Be able to travel to a new city & walk around exploring

5. Take salsa lessons

6. Wear a sexy red dress when the hubs takes me out to show off the newly-acquired salsa dancing skills

7. Be able to say 'Yes' to activities & invitations more frequently than I say 'No'

[Roo101769 742]

No sitting with legs crossed for me. While I DO want to be able to, even thin I won't. Vascular damage in leg says no-no. Oh well...I can live with that! LOL

[marynoel 12]

I want to dance with my husband with out my big stomach between us .
