Things I'm Looking Forward To (UPDATE)

At the start of my Weight Loss Journey, I made this list of things that I was looking forward to. Now after losing 2 stone exactly, I'd thought I see how far I'd got and maybe add a few more.


wearing smaller clothes and therefore having a greater choice of where to shop (I'm bored with Evans & Rocha John Rocha!) - 2 sizes smaller, can now add Next, Dorothy Ps, Tesco, Monsoon, and many more to the list!

Looking in the mirror and feeling pretty - well, not quite, but I do spend far more time in front of the mirror and have even put one in the hall way. A big improvement for me.

Being able to ask for clothes as presents - not been an opportunity yet!

Being able to buy a bra in M & S - YES! Still not a lot of choice for a 42inch back but there are some.

Being looked at by the opposite sex - nope

Getting my hair cut (a treat for myself after losing my first stone) - Yes, had about 4 inches taken off

People commenting on my weight loss - Yes daily!

Children not calling me cuddly! - actually they haven't. They've said some lovely things too.

Being smaller than my sister & best friend - best friend yes (just), sister no

Having regular periods (well maynot this one!) - no idea as I'm back on the pill

Being able to walk without my knees aching - massive improvement, now able to wear heels to work

Feeling confident enough to put pictures of myself on Facebook - there are a couple of recent ones. I keep thinking about untagging them, but I actuallyhaven't!

Being able to wear leggings with a top (although this will be out of fashion by the time I get there!) - I'm not buying anymore clothes but I think I could get away with it now

Wearing a swimming costume with pride
Haven't had a opportunity to do these yet (bikini definitely not!)
Wearing a bikini!

Being able to shop with thin friends - not just yet!

That's quite good after only 2 stone!
