If I reached my ideal weight I would...

get into kite surfing!

I've flown stunt kites before in my life and always thought it would be so fun to do kite surfing (google it if you don't know what it is).  But I'd have to be in totally good shape which I'm far from these days!  Long long term goal!

What would you do if you reached your ideal?

There are a lot of things I will do and a lot of them have been mentioned but i'll just list this one:

I will wear short sleeves again and not be that weirdo who wears long sleeves even in really hot weather.

Hmmm...a great question! 

I would definitely consider wearing a bikini again.  If I lost the weight I wouldn't really care about all the stretch marks showing if my gut wasn't hanging over the bottoms. 

I would stop buying jeans one size too small because I can't stand buying the size my waist actually is.  It's so much bigger than my butt and hips.  And I would totally spend $150 on some jeans that fit me perfectly.

I would stop wearing tank tops under every shirt I wear to help "hide" my gut.

I wouldn't be disgusted when I look in the mirror at myself naked...maybe, maybe not.

I would have more "fun" with my husband.

When i reach my ideal weight i'll need a new wardrobe and will invest in as much eco-friendly clothing as i can made out of sustainable materials and in tune with light airy faerie fashion.  That way i look amazing (and will actually have a figure suited to the style i adore) and will also be helping mother earth!  I'll enjoy feeling good about my much needed new wardrobe on more then one level.

 

DarcySkyWolf, I like your thinking. If you don't mind I'd like to steal your sustainable wardrobe idea.

i would buy a helluva new wardrobe!!!!!!!

Dress super hott and wear a bikini to the beach for the first time ever!

Gosh, everything.

New clothes.

New guy.

New life. =)

I would throw a hot-tub party at my house, crank the music, and be confident dancing in my swimsuit!! 

3lbs to go!!! 

hahah mee too new cloth and go audition for plays or audition for talent agencies !!!

Buy like 5 of the tiniest string bikini's I could find and never wear another coverup at the beach again.  I'd also take all those jobs I passed up with photographers for shoots I really wanted to do... but just... couldn't.

I'd also buy really cute workout clothes instead of baggy t shirts and old yoga pants.

I don't have to guess because I already did.  130 pounds and kept off, too.  I ran a half marathon and am training for a full in January.  Next spring I am taking up mountain climbing.  I also got bikini underpants for the first time in my life.  I bought a pair of low rise jeans and wore them with a high cut top.  I took up dancing. I started a blog.

take pictures, soemthing ive been avoiding my whole life( i meant full body ones)

Take a trip to Florida with the wife and head for the beach and not feel self concious. Or maybe Mexico or a cruise instead. Either way, hang out near the beach/pool and relax knowing I deserved it

When I reach my goal weight, I will be able to fit into my dream wedding dress and marry the man of my dreams!!!!

I already have the man of my dreams and will be marrying him regardless, but I will be able to fit into the dress of my dreams!!!  This is my second marriage but I have never had my wedding!

I will get to have my daddy walk me down the aisle (he will have lost over 150lbs by then) and I will be wearing my white dress and be able to watch my guy be overcome with emotion! :-)

I can't wait!!!  May 1 is my goal date to be 140 and my wedding is on May 15th.  This means I have to lose at least 2 lbs per week to achieve this!

When I reach my ideal weight I would....

feel like I have beaten the odds.  My mum is fat and my sister's weight goes up and down all the time. 
I will feel like I can dress in whatever I like and still look and feel good.
I will be able to go climbing and not have to come off an overhang because my body is too heavy to pull up.
I won't feel fat when I'm among a group of friends.

When I reach my goal and I am going to reach my goal I am going to wear a two piece all day while on vacation even out to dinner!!!

At my heaviest, I would never take my shirt off at the beach, and I'd usually leave my shirts untucked and habitually pull my collar above my chin.  When I reach my goal weight, I will go to the beach more and keep the shirt off.  I'll have to start thinking about a different wardrobe as well.

-I would definitely go shopping!

-Tell my story to morons who don't understand weight and health

-Impress friends and my doctor

-Get pictures taken of my victory

-Be so, so proud of myself...

Stop smoking!!!

look like i want to for my wedding pictures and know that i'll have an easier pregnancy without the worry of my weight causing complications like it did the last time.

WHEN i reach my goal weight I'm going to get my hair cut off!!!! and grow dreds.. even if i dont do the dreds im going to get a short hair cut.. and buy tons of outfits, and even go to the thrift store to get some
