This doesn't necessarily have to be weight loss/fitness related. In fact, I'm curious what your non-fitness accomplishments are!
I'm just a freshman in college, so I feel like I haven't quite accomplished anything huge yet. :ohwell:
But if I had to pick one thing it's probably being Salutatorian of my high school class. That's the only really big thing I can think of.

What's your biggest accomplishment? :flowerforyou:

  • Getting my AA Degree! I'm still working on my Bachelors, but I can say that I have a college degree! I'm the first one in my family to get one. :happy:

    Being the salutatorian is a FANTASTIC accomplishment. My biggest accomplishment would probably be recording a 6 song EP and (attempting to) distributing it!

    Working on my Bachelors in Journalism and my minor (an associates in Dance) and if I can get those, then I will be the first in my family to do it.

    But, as far as work: I got to write a sidebar for a playoff game on Saturday and shadow one of the new "co-editors" at the paper. So getting to do a playoff game in the first time in the 2 years that I have been there.

    And I found out this week that I will get to be an assistant cheerleading coach for 5th and 6th grade girls at a church here in town starting in Jan through Upward, which is an outreach program. I have never done it before, but it puts my dance minor to use :bigsmile:

    Here are two:

    Having houses built that I designed and knowing that people are living in them.

    Having brain surgery and handling it like a champion.

    This is fitness related - but it is a major accomplishment for me. 3-weeks ago, I ran my first MARATHON!!! I am still on my runner's high! I am looking forward to many more to come!
