Replies

- No longer be a fatso
- Get a new job
- Stop doing thing things, that are fun at the time, but I know aren't good decisions :-/0 -
-I want to stop taking the BP Meds I am on. When I retire in 6 years, I want to be Med free.
-I want to play soccer into my 60's. At a competitive level.
-Go to Culinary School.0 -
Finish my degree! I have a billion reasons for why I dropped out and I'm excited to restart! The only drawback is to have to sit around with a bunch of 19 year olds that think Nike is just a shoe brand! Otherwise it's going to be great.
Ever thought of on-line classes? I qualified for them because, when I transfered, I had so many credits that I either went to school on-ground and took another 4 years, or went with an evening/on-line program in three years. Tons of schools are offering it now and it's a lot more flexible and oftentimes cheaper. Or... go to class with the 19-year-olds and relive the glory days! My boyfriend (29) is in nursing school with a ton of 18-year-old girls day after day!0 -
Good question! I've been so focused on weight loss for so long, I've about forgotten what else I'd like to be doing! lol
1) GET A NEW JOB
2) Pad my savings account.
3) Start going to church again.
4) Build my online portfolio website (that will probably have to happen prior to #1, actually).
I think that's enough for this year!0 -
** To pay off my college loans...only $13,000 to go! haha
** To take (and pass) the Human Resources certificate exam so I can advance in my career a little.
** To move out of my one bedroom apartment and into a condo or house.
** Not a priority right now, but to someday meet my soulmate.0 -
I think I need a complete make over, I think I must give the impression that I am a thick pauper - because by random strangers or health professionals that I speak with I am treated like a stupid moron.
But I'm not, I speak clearly and with good diction, I'm a qualified and experienced specialist medical scientist, I have a degree in biomedicine I also have a Masters degree in science (was offered a PhD place in '09 but turned it down), I have ISA's and other savings, and a very happy loving homelife.
But I am spoken too and looked at as if I am a chav on the welfare. And I dont know why. It must be the way I look and dress. So as and when I lose my excess weight I am going to overhaul my appearance and I will no longer be looked down upon, I will be treated as the intelligent medical professional that I am.
You know the old comedy routine of when speaking to a foreigner people tend to speak loudly and S L O W L Y...like they are stupid? This is what I get sometimes. I have no idea why.
I do very much like my hair though, it's very long, very dark and glossy, I love it and I'm not changing that. I'm not the best looking girl in the world but I'm not horrific either.0 -
My next big goal is to quit smoking! Haven't set a date, but considering my options.0

i actually made a 3-page document for my 2011 goals... I just picked it up and was pleased, as i looked thru, to see that i have already done several of them and am making good progress at others....
Here are some of my goals:
numerous 5ks, the Warrior Dash plus 1 or 2 half-marathons
hike at least 6 more "adirondack high peaks" including at least 1 overnight camping trip in the backcountry
go skydiving
redoing flower beds/berry patches and expanding my home (veggie) garden
can more jellies, tomatoes and salsa
let less food spoil before getting around to it (including keeping the refrigerator free of "science experiments")
volunteer to work the fields for one or more days at the farm where i have my CSA share
declutter my basement, attic, garage, greenhouse and closets
to give away what i dont use, love or want
to travel to Lebanon
to spend a long weekend in Vermont with my little sister
to bring my kids to more library story times, beaches, pools and playgrounds
to go to IKEA (lol!)
to keep my vehicle cleaned out
to reduce paper clutter thru-out my house
to cook something special for my husband more often instead of sticking the poor guy in the kid-food rut
to see some musle definition in my arms and abs (man that belly fat is stubborn!)
and the list goes on......
