What's your odd Non-Scale-Goal?

I've always wanted super short pixie style hair. I mean super short and choppy.

Unfortunately short hair like that looks rediculous on bigger women. So my non scale goal is to get fit enough that I can cut my hair super short like that and still look sexy!

    I'd like better definition of my muscles. I'm strong, and carry a lot of muscle, I'd like it to show a little better.

    I miss my feet. Yes, I can still see them! :) But they used to be pretty cute. I've given myself weekly pedicures for like 10 years now. But, the more weight I gain, the chubbier my feet get, and they're actually kinda depressing me. It's silly, but I miss my cute feet.

    My goal is to be toned. I have a weight in mind, but honestly it's flexible. What I really want to to be toned and happy with what I see in teh mirror.

    My odd goals, or rewards for hitting goal, are a short inverted bob cut and another tattoo or two to represent the new me.

    Blood pressure , heart disease and the like run in the family. Just trying to keep everything in check. My uncle's been on HBP meds since he was 32. I don't want to be like that.

    I work with elderly people and am always getting called 'a big strong girl' by them - I am tall and have a broad build so im never going to get away from that, but i would like to think 'yes, yes i am' when they say that, rather than 'thats a polite way of calling me a lump!
  • Mine's not weird but I want my belly button pierced. I'm a uk size 8/10 but I carry all my flab in this litte 'shelf' above my navel which my piercer said will get in the way :(

    Low rise jeans. They don't really come in plus size (at least not at lane bryant). I used to love love love low rise jeans because they fit me better.

    My goal size range for pants is 6-10 and shirts sm-med

    Handstand push-ups on a chair. I'd like to squat more than my body weight, as well.

    Oh, and I'd really like a flat stomach.

    I really can't wait to have more energy to do things after work besides laying on the couch! Ever since I gained the last 40+ pounds, I feel like I have less energy than I used to. Hopefully with the changes I'm starting to make, that energy will come back!!

    cutting dairy might help ;)
    dairy products thicken the skin... lack of them makes it thinner... thus showing definition more.

    as for one of mine not listed yet... I want to be able to lift more than a bunch of the boys at my gym.
    Not to mention, more than my guy friends.


    We'll see if I get there! I used to be like that in High School! ;)

    When I was younger & slim I had a gorgeous spiky hair cut.If I went for that now I'd look like cress growing out of an egg.Oh to be able to carry that off again x

    I want my "fat apron" gone. I also want to be able to buy regular size clothes again and not have to settle for unflattering plus size stuff.

    I grew up in a home on a lake and I swam every day of the summer. I was even water skiing at 5-6 years old. So, fast forward to now...I swim maybe 1-2 times a year, I am embarrassed to wear a bathing suit, I LOVE the water and would swim every day if I could but I just don't. That needs to change.

    Every year my husband's office has a company lobster bake/steak dinner at the owners camp. They have a speed boat and canoes, kayaks...etc. Last year I couldn't get up on the water skis!!! I tried like 5 times before I got exhausted and it started sprinkling and we had to stop. I am going to get up this year dammit! haha

    Definitely for me it is a flat stomach. I can't remember having one since before my first pregnancy 8 years ago. I know I will always have stretched skin but I want the muscles of my stomach to be flat.

    My goal is to have a body that can show off a tattoo well. I don't have any tattoo's but once I reach my goal weight I plan on getting one of a heart with my three kids names in it. Just not sure where to get it, any suggestions (I don't like pain)?

    Summer dresses for sure! A cute little white one with spaghetti straps. With large badonkadonks I can't wear cute little things.

    I can't wait for when I can sit down in a chair, and have space on either side to the arms. I can fit in chairs just fine, but I want that space! When I see Kelly Ripa sit her chair (and i will never EVER be that small), you can fit like, 2 of her in that chair, all that space! I just want a fraction of that!

    To wear a Corset (like those you get at Hot Topic) and be able to breathe after it zips!
