ftballmom9296

so I have set big goals for myself and small goals. Since coming on MFP - I have learned about NSV so I want to hear what everyones NSV's are that they are working towards - I want to wear tall boots - my calves are too big to fit in them so I will wear them one day with a skirt or skinny jeans

That is an awesome goal. What kind of tall boots are you talking about? Western boots or casual knee high boots. If it is the knee high boots Lane Bryant carries them for big calves. I bought a pair last year and absolutely love them

I want to look amazing in my wedding dress, but dress shopping has put a downer on that. However, we plan on going somewhere warm on the honeymoon a few months after the wedding and I want to be able to wear a bikini for the first time and not feel self conscious!

I wanna be able to dead lift and squat my body weight. I'm getting real close with my dead lift....relatively close with squats, too. It'll happen soon. :drinker:

Hey, that's mine too!! I also want to be able to do unassisted pullups :flowerforyou:

I totally get that tall boot thing. I was thinking about that a few weeks ago, about how I never used to be able to wear them. Keep working at and you'll get there. I'm living proof.

I'm not really working toward specific NSVs. They present themselves like unexpected gifts.

I have a bunch of clothes that I wore for a small period of time before I gained tons of weight that I'd like to fit in again.

And to also be able to do a 5k!

ctpeace

I agree that most NSVs (new term for me too) are more like happy surprises, but I do have a pair of goal pants! Also, I'm super picky about which pictures I'll allow to be seen of me right now, and it makes my hubby crazy, I may never change that, but I'd like to get to the point where I'm only vetoing odd expressions on my face

juicemoogan

Unassisted pullups!

leeroxboro

For by boobs to poke out farther than my belly...once I get that one, I'll set another!!

luckyjuls

Well the first is to wear a beautiful, tight dress without hangups. I planned to do that by my anniversary next month, but I think it's a little more slow-going than I expected, which is ok.

The second, bigger one is that I have all these awesome designer jeans I bought when I basically had no expenses and I can't fit my butt into any of them. It's sad.

Afura

Tall boots too! And I have clothes in smaller sizes to encourage me along the way. Go go go!

Lunarokra

5k in June, and my goal is to run the entire 3 .1 miles.

crossfit_lover

Improved endurance where I run for 5miles without stopping

Elkarieda

Zip up my graduation dress... (of course while wearing it :laugh: )

oh i got one that is sad. I do not like my picture taken at all - so there are almost no pictures of me with my kids or husband because I refuse to take those pictures- I want to take a million pics with my kids

My advice - don't wait. Start now. Your husband and kids know what you look like. They love you for you. The kids grow up SO fast - don't wait for someday - they will want pictures of you with them when they are young.

I also don't like myself in pictures but still take them because I am what I am, and I don't want the kids to miss having pictures of me, heavy or not. I'm a bit of a fatalist though and live by the idea that I never know when there may be a bus with my name on it... Carpe diem.

Agree! Get in those pictures!

I completely agree. I think that when you do lose the weight you will be disappointed that you don't have pictures to show how far you came. Plus, I'm sure your kids would love to have pictures with you. My sister has cancer and my neice recently took down a picture of her from before the cancer, because she said 'that is not my mom, that is not who I know'. She has never known her mom to look any way other than how she looks now.

arac62

To stand next to my absolutely gorgeous, healthy younger sister and not feel like the fat sister.
