What's ur goal?!?!?

KikiVal315 · 02-02-2008, 09:46 PM

i'm 5'7, my goal is 155; seems so far away right now

but when i used to weigh 190 i was a size 10/12 and i was so happy to look 'normal' but most importantly i looked healthy & my curves were still there but everything was in a tight neat package. i really do hope i don't loose my booty at goal weight; my husband and i both love it!!! but i guess booty exercises can help with that, if not surgery to regain my latina-ness!!! lol

Im 5'9

when i 1st got banded my goal was 175..this was what i weighed in 6th grade when i broke my leg. I dont get on the scale very often and one day got on and I was 172..totally passed my goal and didnt even realize! oops..

so then i set a goal of a size 8..now I am a size 6..newest goal, maintain a constant workout schedule!

O btw I say I am a size 6 plz dont be confused, Im not really super skinny, i just have NO hips or butt :)

Apple, Thank God you said it cuz I thought I might be the only one who DOESN'T want to be a size 2. I am 5'6 and I would love to be a size 8 or 10! People think that because I want to have surgery that I cant wait to be super skinny! I do not mind having curves, I am just tired of being round! LOL! I just want to be healthy and my goal is to be able to buy clothes from any store rather than having to find a plus size store! Oh, and I can not wait to wear hot shoes! Needing to wear a wide width now, I can never find cute, fashionable, sexy heels, sandals or boots that fit!

KikiVal315 · 02-09-2008, 07:23 PM

hey mrusso, do you shop at torrid? they have the CUTEST shoes in wide width and the boots fit too...trust me!! i have a small foot for a big girl (8) but my foot's wide and i did have trouble finding shoes that fit.

I wanted to be an Aussie size 12 (a US 8-10) and about 60- 65kg (132lbs- 142lbs) I ended up an Aussie 6 (like a 2 or a 4 in the US) and 49-50kg (107 ish lbs)

At 164cm, my current weight is well within the "normal & healthy" range.

Miss Michelle · 02-09-2008, 09:06 PM

kiki: i love torrid! i have not tried the shoes though! i am gonna check them out online! thanx!

badmamajama · 04-10-2008, 07:46 PM

I want to come down to 140 I am 250-5 right now
that was my best weight after boot camp....prior USN
I am saving up the money right now I want to get the Band done in September for my Bday.....

linzchavez · 04-10-2008, 07:57 PM

i'm 5'2", my goal is to be around 120 pounds...i couldn't even tell you the last time i weighed 120 pounds...i'd like to be a size 8 or 6...don't remember when i was that size either...

i'd like to be able to shop for clothes wherever i want, and not only at lane bryant...i mean, don't get me wrong...lane bryant has served me well thus far...but, i really want to wear cute stuff--the gap, old navy...damn, i may even wonder into hollister or something!! :) haha.

ok, maybe not hollister...but i can't wait to get to my goal...my family & i are going on a trip to disneyworld in october, this will be our 3rd trip with the kids and i've yet to get in the pool with them...i want to get in a bathing suit, not care who's looking and make memories with my kids that they will never forget!

badmamajama · 04-10-2008, 08:08 PM

same here...i have a closet full of skinny clothes....I hate the thought of going shopping....but this year its my prayer to go crazy and shop it i drop....it will be easer to find clothes and nicer clothes too.....

linzchavez · 04-10-2008, 08:17 PM

in december i went to ft lauderdale for my friend's 30th bday. there is an amazing mall...called sawgrass mills...it's an outlet and has amazing stores...i think it's like 2 miles long or something...i went there and while my friends shopped, i bought....sunglasses...yup...sunglasses...i'd love to go back and be able to buy the cute clothes that i wish i could have fit in while i was there in december...i've never been much of a shopper...but, once i get to my goal i plan on breaking the bank!!

badmamajama · 04-10-2008, 08:26 PM

I live within 20 miles of a outlet mall......I cant wait.....I hope to get the money sorted out and come September its on.......
Its sad, when i was skinny I never thought that in a million years i would be this big.
My skinny pants can only fit one of my huge thighs now....but life life happens i guess...
I hope to use Dr. Ortiz in Mexico.....reason I can get my refills here in the states and his resume looks good and all that....

linzchavez · 04-10-2008, 08:44 PM

i've never actually been "skinny" but i look back at pictures from 10 years ago when i was a size 10...back then i thought i was too big, and what i wouldn't give to be there now...oh well, the grass is always green, right?

badmamajama - so, are you still in your researching phase of the Lap Band? do you live near mexico, that dr. ortiz is convenient for you?
