~ Have awesome, long, crazy sex in all sorts of positions
~ Wear jeans without an elastic waist
~ Run into old friends without wanting to hide
~ Go on hikes with my family
~ Fit into everything in 'normal' shops
~ Zip up killer knee high boots
~ Sit on any seat without fear of it breaking
~ Eat in public without getting those looks
~ Go to the hairdressers and be able to look at myself in the mirror without disgust
~ Shop in designer stores
~ Fit comfortably on a massage table
~ Wear stupidly high stilettos

List makes me laugh and cry! You deserve all those things!
ReplyDeleteThats a great list - keep focusing on those things and you will get there. I've only just found your blog and plan to explore and read some more later. Jo x
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I look forward to you updating us on your list as you reach those goals. You're doing great!
ReplyDeleteGreat list - I want those too!
ReplyDeleteAwesome post.
ReplyDeleteThink I might do the same, if I have a visual to look at everyday, might motivate me even more!

Cool list! You go girl...
ReplyDeleteI think you should do just one more list: things you like about yourself regardless of weight. That's the list you look at on the days when the weight loss is fighting you and you need an extra reason not to reach for a cookie/glass of wine!
Thank you! I love this list :-) I should post mine!
ReplyDeleteOMG I love this list - I want to add a whole heap of them to mine!
