What would make the happiest is to have financial stability so that I could own a nice home that could be renovated so that I could take in children with special needs. It would not just be children tho, I would also love to foster dogs and cats that have been abadoned too.
The lottary would make all this possible.

Weight loss doesn't make for happy. It makes for a greater enjoyment of cross country skiing and cycling. The boost? I'd like to get back to moments of bliss and contentment. It has been a while.

Great topic! I would like to maintain a level of fitness that simply allows me to serve God, family, neighbors in whatever ways He may put in front of me, without hesitation or doubt on my part. Also, would love to have the financial freedom to build the right house for my husband and I (not extravagant, just perfectly right for us) with special provisions (kennel area, fenced yard, etc.) to allow for us to adopt a few more dogs. I wouldn't want more dogs than I could be attentive and loving too, but I think with the right set-up we could certainly take in a few more than we have now. : )
I would also like to be healthy enough to be an active part of my grandchildren's lives (when I have them!).

I want to be a role model for my daughter. I want her to admire me as a strong, wise and healthy woman. That is all I really want. Everything else is just a positive side effect.

Oh boy!! ... I can relate completely to what Jadea said! I have been there so much. Getting out from behind myself would be my main reason, developing confidence, self worth would be the best outcome I could ask for!

I wish that I could retire and spend my time doing volunteer work and Bible study. I've spent all my life working for someone else to make THEM money (let's face it when you're in business the bottom line is money). I'd like my life to be meaningful by helping those who need it.

In conjunction with the hopeful weight loss, I will be completing my MBA in March 2012 AND my biggest wish is to write a book. It will shoot a glance toward my weight loss, but the major factor will be the most effective ways to DE-STRESS! I am attempting to record a total transformation of myself; mentally, physically, emotionally, monetarily, and of course, spiritually.

I want to be healthy in body and mind. No more stuffing emotions with food or alcohol. Eating healthy, exercise all help with a healthy mind as well. I have to be able to handle the not so happy times head on and not ruin my body in the process. On a selfish side. I love wearing funky clothes, and they just look better if you are thin. So I hope for a healthy mind and body that is happy most of the time while wrapped in funky clothes. haha!!

I truly wish for myself that all my new projects for 2012 will take flight.

I have recently gotten married to a wonderful man, but I'm bummed that we didn't meet a long time ago! Also, I have two awesome girls (11 and 13) and I am really enjoying watching them become these interesting and fabulous people. So my goal is to live a long time in a healthy body so I can enjoy the next 40 or so years with my husband and daughters.

i hope that if i lose enough weight i will be more confident.
and be able to go for a night out with my friends.
because at the moment i am so self conscious about my weight and appearance that i freeze up and feel sick at the idea of going out and standing next to all my skinny pretty friends in there small dresses. so i don't go out.
and i would love to be able to just throw a dress on and go out for a laugh.
also i am a horse rider so the lighter i am on my pony's back the better.
