What are your fun / secret / juvenile / silly "daydreams" (or realities!) re....

So we all know that we are doing this first and foremost for our health. Our quality of life. Our longevity. The 'real' reasons and the 'right' reasons.

We also all have some desires that would fall under 'quality of life' like playing with our kids, fitting in airline seats and on the rollercoasters at Wonderland.

But if I had to guess, I think a lot of us might secretly have some fun daydreams hidden in the back of our minds having to do with the serious change in our bodies ahead.

Maybe you want to make an ex drop their jaw.. maybe you want to flounce into a family function looking and feeling marvelous and thumb your nose at your mean old great aunt who always put you down. Maybe you just want to try some sexy moves on your spouse that you didn't have the confidence to do in the past. Maybe at 65 years old you just damn well want to rock a bikini or speedo.

Does anyone want to share?

For me? Hm. It's a little tricky, because everyone in my life now have always known me this weight, so it's not like they'd have watched me balloon to this weight. But I guess I love the idea of dancing with my hubby, feeling amazing, being his hottie. I also would like to get a little 'acrobatic' with him like I used to back in the day .

I plan to wear a bikini in public this summer. Already have the bikini and Wonderland seasons passes purchased. Waterparks...here I come....for once I'm hoping this summer is a scorcher! (It's about time...this weather is killing me)

Yes, waterparks! They are so much fun, but I haven't been in a couple of years because I'm too embarrassed.

you shouldn't be embarrassed. Nobody cares what your body looks like other than you. Enjoy the waterparks!

I want to take family pictures and finally have pictures of me and my kids (Daughter is 3 1/2, Son is 2), I also want to renew my vows with my husband and rock some amazing pictures with him as well and not feel like we look like the number 10 in all of them.

Ooh! Family pics! Yes! I've always wanted that!!

(LOL@ "Number 10")

Welllllllll....there are so many things.

1. Be HEALTHY !
2. Wear pretty clothes that are fit to my body.
3. Go into La Senza and buy some super sexy (not trashy) lingerie and not be embarrassed because I'm heavy.
4. Buy a swim skirt with bikini top for the beach and my hot tub.
5. Be able to get on the ground with my 4 month old grand baby and not be embarrassed that I can't get off the ground without help.
6. Just plain ole feel better with myself!
7. Buy some really pretty tank top dresses and feel happy with my arms.
8. Feel FLIRTY with my husband because I'm not embarrassed how heavy I am. (He's never embarrassed about me...I'm lucky)
9. Put myself out there in groups and not fade into the background because I don't want people to look at me.
10. ....etc....etc...etc...

GREAT POST and thanks for asking!

Love your list! but you gotta promise to buy just ONE trashy thing from LaSenza... just to, you know, give hubby's heart a little work out

I want to dance. Like rock out some hip hop or something and look fantastic doing it, maybe even some pole dancing. (note: some big people can do this anyway, unfortunately I can't my body just can't handle it).

OMG everyone has such cool answers!! Yes to pole dancing and like, I totally want to do some of those dances 'the kids' are doing, shuffling, etc.

I admit, mainly because i love the idea of embarrassing my 11 year old, but you know, I want to look COOL while doing it. heheh

Love it!! Thanks for the reply!
