Climb a mountain? Buy a new wardrobe? Run a marathon?

What is it that you have told yourself you’ll do when you get to goal? All of us do it.

So what do you have it in your head to do when you get to goal? And are you already working toward it?  

I wanna know!

 When I got to goal my gift to me was to go shopping and buy some sexy clothes. I hit it 3 days before Christmas so James and I went out and while I only got a couple things it was fun trying them all on and showing off for him.

You have the weirdest husband. He paints nails and doesn't mind clothes shopping with you.

Where did you GET him???

 I know he def is weird. But I got him in MN so I think the cold messed up his brain or something.

Honestly hadnt given this much thought but I think something that stands out for me that I have been unwilling to try as an overweight person is travel. Without the fear of fitting in a seat, being able to walk around without being winded or slowing others down, and the million other things that are difficult being overweight...I would love to travel someplace I would never have imagined for myself before.

Throw myself on the ground, crying THANK YOU GOD!! 

After that, I just dont know, but I wonder if I'll ever be satisfied. I'll probably pick something else about myself to complain about, but hopefully I'll be able to take some time to enjoy my success.

I'm going zip lining (we have an all day course at the place I go canoeing,) this June I'm planning on getting scuba certified because I expect to hit a mini goal of 174, I fully intend to go to TN and hike to the waterfall I wanted to when I got hitched (maybe ill do it on the day my divorce is final.)  I'm going skydiving, wake boarding, I am going to take surf lessons.. The bucket list is HUGE!

Oh and a professional portrait session of me and my son!

I never really limited my overweight body.....I did everything I wanted to do because on top of still thinking I in my twenties I always maintained a skinny residual self image. But now that I am losing and realizing how crappy I actually felt (and didn't know or acknowledge it), I am excited to ride my bike this summer. I am pumped to have plastic surgery - been wanting my saggy boobs done for a long time (now I just have to add to the list). And I can't wait to have a baby - which has been near impossible for us - even with fertility treatments. My weight loss will hopefully be the last hurdle for us in this arena!

 This is going to sound profoundly negative, but its the God's honest truth...

I don't have an at-goal reward because I don't believe I'll ever get to an elusive goal and still have a hard time accepting that 25-30lbs overweight is good enough.
