Great tool that helped me get to goal and stay at goal! WLS Bucket List

We can use all the help we can get to achieve one of the hardest challenges in life, losing weight and keeping it off.

Several things I did looking back was key in my success and I hope by sharing it will help you too. I shared my never again tee shirt and another one was my WLS bucket list.

I kept the list on my desktop and viewed it and added to it daily. When times got tough and or I hit a speed bump it helped me, inspired me and I had my dreams front center.

I started out small with things like -

walking without having my left side go numb

cross my legs

not sweat like a pig

buy clothes at regular stores

fit in seats like amazement parks, movies, airplane

being able to have the tray go down on an airplane

ride a bike and on and on

Once I started crossing off items I got bold and started adding dreams

zip lining

hiking

kayaking

look like I did in my dreams. Did you ever notice when we dream about ourselves we are NEVER fat?

swim

do a 3k, 5k and half marathon

Try this, it will really, really help! Post it anywhere and everyone, view it daily, add to it. To look back at all the crossed off items is AMAZING!

Hugs,

Kathy

Good strategy! I have a thousand incarnations in my dreams. Sometimes I dream of blowing up and splitting out of my pants. The psyche is a complex mechanism.

Go sleeveless (may never be possible w/o PS)
Not lie about my weight on my DL

My desires are simple right now.

We use to have a saying on the boards to deal with our batwings post weight loss. If we were to lift our arms "Houston, we have lift off"!
