What's the 1st thing you will do for yourself when you hit your goal weight?

Just curious if others have put off doing something for themselves because of their weight.

I want a cute short haircut. I have kept my hair long ever since I was told that my short hair made me look fatter. And yes, that was from a "close" friend.
I want a red bikini, an orange bikini, some corset style tops, hot new jeans, and, of course to feel like I can pull off sexy lingerie for the hubby. Wink

I have my sister's wedding to attend, but I don't think I'll be at my goal weight yet by then.. would still have 10 lbs or so to shed.  However, I think I would look pretty damn good to people who haven't seen me in 5 months! Also, once I manage to lose the extra pounds and tone up a bit, I'd like to go shopping, MAYBE buy a bikini if I miraculously manage to look good in one, get my hair done, and I'm also thinking of doing something to my teeth (they're not that white though I've been using tooth whiteners for a while now and I hope they work).  Woohoo.  That and take lots of pictures, Facebook 'em and jawdrop everyone, hehe.

I am gonna join a dance class! Wear nice fitted clothes and maybe start making up a modelling portfolio - cos im 6ft and might as well make the most of it! 
Sexy lingere to impress my fella *blushes* x
Chuck the scale out of the window :D

Then go shopping, even if i don't buy anything  just to get that feeling of, I am a beautiful girl and I have every right to be out buying clothes.

Then go out for a night on the town and not worry about whether or not guys find me attractive and dance the night away with my friends.
I will probably jump around the screaming, dancing and hugging anyone I see and then call everyone I know to tell them my good news. Go shopping for a sexy dress, shoes and get my hair done cause I'd be going for a night on the town!

I would get a "fat suit" and meet somebody I haven't seen in a while for a drink. The following week, I'll meet them again, sans fat suit.  I would love to see the look on their face.
this thread worries me a little.  most people seem to have fairly modest, reasonable plans, but a few appear to be pinning a lot of dreams and expectations on weight loss.  if there's something you really want to do, that's really important to you, do it.  don't wait until you have the "perfect" body to follow your passion, because that perfect body may become your excuse to keep putting it off.  and if you're doing it to impress other people - well, that's fleeting.  yes, you'll have your moment of satisfaction, but then what?

i'm all for incentives, but losing weight isn't going to make you magically happy and successful at life.  you have to do those things yourself.
Start shopping for my wedding dress ;)
Original Post by koilady63:

I'm flying back to my family home in Kentucky, FIRST CLASS and watching their jaws drop when they notice I am no longer the "fat cousin."

I'm calling Nordstorm's, having a personal shopper assemble a selection of clothing to suit my needs and them leisurely trying them on in the largest dressing room. Ocassional I'll send the personal shopper running for another size, shoes with the right heel height, or jewelry.

I'm going to look handsome men in the eye and smile.... then flash my wedding ring!

 Wooo! You go girl!

I am going to have mad passionate monkey sex with my husband!!  Oh, yeah!

I'm going to get some new jeans. You know, those slightly too expensive jeans that are still totally worth it cause they make your butt look fabulous, and your legs go for miles? Yeah. I'm getting those jeans. Tommy Jeans, Size 4, boot cut, low waist. ;)

And I'm TOTALLY getting a black bikini. I think a black bikini is the single sexiest thing on the planet! And I've always wanted the body to rock one! Ironically, I don't have a "goal weight", but my goal is to have a good bikini body! Tone up all the fluff and look drop dead- Yowza! ;) 

I think I am going to start dating again....not 100% sure but I am seriously considering it
Buy a sexy dress and have a romantic dinner with the hubby.  He always says he thinks I'm beautiful however I look, but I'm excited to hit the goal weight and celebrate! :-)
