Does any of you have a special goal 'item'? ie: a special piece of clothing that you're aiming to get into? About a year and a half ago i had these cute little black shorts that i used to wear with a singlet to the beach. I dont know why, but a particular comment about me wearing those shorts has stuck in my mind -
MY BOY SAID I LOOKED HOT.
When i wore them he would obviousy (like most boys, subtlety isnt his strong point) brush past me more than normal, and give me a little tap on the butt. N
ow, he's not shy with positive comments - he'll often tell me a top looks nice, or i smell good..... but this one compliment has stuck in my brain for over a year.
So, every now and then i try to squeeze myself into these cute little shorts. Except, i havent done so for a while. I think i'll wait until i get down to about 95kgs and give it another go. I know i'm not far off - they're quite fitted, tightish shorts... so its just a little bit around the belly area i think. I
guess my main goal isnt so much to make that number on the scales lower (although thats an absolute bonus). It's more to make my clothes feel better. I want to fit in my old sexy dresses, those cute little shorts.
I CAN DO IT! I WILL FIT INTO MY HOT SHORTS.
Thanks girlies, hope you've had a good start to the week.
Happy May!

Jeans
I always want to get into smaller jeans. I do, however, have some capris I bought for a cruise last year. I didn't get to bring them because they were too tight - go figure! Anyway, they are fitting much better now. I actually have lots of summer clothes I can wear now.
For me, it's definitely jeans. I have this amazing pair of Citizens jeans I got when I was at my slimmest and as one friend said, "it's like they have corset for your butt!" - amazing jeans. I'm determined to be able to wear them again and soon!
Just keep reaching for the shorts - any motivation will do!!
I know you'll get there!!! Me, I'd never be seen in anything above my knees, but then again I've got varicose veins... (I don't know anyone else that had varicose veins at 18)
Had to comment, because, my gosh, how GOOD is that weight watchers pizza! They're actually a good deal larger than the lean cuisine ones, so you don't feel like you're being stingy on meal size. Another WW favourite of mine is their wraps, they have chicken satay and meditteranian chicken. Lovely! 2 minutes in the microwave, and 1 min on the sandwich press to toast it a little, and ta-da! I'm addicted!
When you get into those shorts, you should take a piccie and show us how hot you look!
Sounds like it is a good goal for you! I'm jumping on the jeans bandwagon - i have this amazing pair of size 16 jeans that I bought about three years ago and they are just PERFECT. I wore them tightly for six months before I expanded out of them, and I want 'em back. They're hanging up as inspiration!
I have a similar story. My husband is very sweet and tells me I'm beautiful everyday even at my current weight. But a few years ago, I went to visit him for Christmas when we were still in college and I had on these tiny size 8 jeans and an x small gray sweater that I had just bought and he totally attacked me. He loved the outfit and I would love to get back into it :) Great goal.
