justmel1957 1 Posted January 6, 2009 A few months ago, there was a thread I replied on where we discussed the one thing we wanted to do when we were almost at goal or AT goal. My "one thing" was that I wanted to have a family photo done that I would be proud to display in my home. Well, we did it...........although I'm not at goal, I'm within 20 lbs of it. So.....while the kids were here at Xmas, we had our family portraits done..........and I am finally proud enough to share them......... So...........what's your "one thing" and have you done it yet???? Please share........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WorkingMom 0 Posted January 6, 2009 Wow ! You look like a model! Thanks for sharing! A true inspiration! I have my surgery on 1/12 and think that a family portrait is a great reward when I near goal. Thanks again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dolphanatic22 0 Posted January 6, 2009 You look fantastic! I am scheduled for surg on Feb 2nd and the new family photos sounds like a wonderful idea. I cannot wait to wear pants with a belt you can actually see instead of hiding my waist under long shirts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BandedCG 0 Posted January 6, 2009 Great photos!!! Congratulations! Okay...here's my "thing" -- I go with my BFF's to the beach in June every year. This year I will wear a tankini and look HOT. Not because I want to find a man because I already have one (LOL), but just because I want to look good for myself. :wub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brandy~ 2 Posted January 6, 2009 You look absolutely wonderful. This is also one thing that I would like to do once I am closer to goal as well. We are going to Kuaui in less than a month and I am about 35lbs from goal but I am still going to enjoy every single second of it... That was my big present to myself.
