What are you going to do when you reach your ultimate goal?

I am going to treat myself to something that is expensive and uncalled for! Oh, and I am going to put on a bikini....

Nothing i am going to maintain it and stay active.

I think i may commemorate the occasion with a tattoo. And definently a shopping spree! I cant wait!

That (the tattoo) is exactly what I did when I reached my "almost there!" goal!!

Nothing i am going to maintain it and stay active.

Booooorring!!

braces. botox. maybe the braces before i get to my goal, they may help me get the rest of the way there. shopping. a vintage dress. bikini. allow my husband to chase me. go outside in the summer in a tank top and shorts. not be jealous of the skinny moms at school. wear rings again. not get welts from my clothes being to tight against my skin. buy designer jeans.

Their dresses are AMAZING. If there isn't anything there today you like, check back in a few weeks. Yes, this is the fictional clothing company from Seinfeld--only now it is REAL.!

Definitely a trip with just hubby and I to some exotic beach location - something we have never done.

Shopping spree, of course.. In stores that I haven't stepped a foot in in a decade.

Maybe plastic surgery depending on what my body and skin looks like after losing 130+ lbs.

Tattoo that I have been designing in my head since my littlest one was born (two rings joined and around it would be a Rose, a Lily, and a Jasmine flower - representing the middle name of each of my girls). Cannot wait to get that one done.

I'm hoping to look healthy enough that I might get an interview for a JOB... and maybe a J O B will come of it.:flowerforyou: As well as just feeling great and look sharp in some new clothes... :happy:

I get your question. You spend all this time obsessing over calories in, energy out. Finally you reach your goal weight after soooo much hard work. Then you wake up the next day. Now what? What do you DO now that you're there? The answer is that the road doesn't end there. That's just the beginning. Getting to your goal weight was nothing more than getting in the car. Now you have this whole road ahead of you. NOW WHAT?

I hope I will find a happier me when I reach that point. I hope I will like what I see. I hope I will know who I am.

As for plans, I plan to splurge on a new wardrobe-- all those skinny people stores/boutiques I eye at the mall like Forever 21 & Buckle. After I get some rad duds, I will continue my journey. I want to run a half marathon for my birthday, which is also when I will be near my original goal weight (I changed it recently). After that, I want to train for a marathon, and in the long run qualify for the Boston Marathon. Somewhere in there I will also have kid #2.

After that... who knows? Probably the soccer mom scene, but chasing them up and down the field with a camera rather than in the grandstands, kwim?

I also would like to get the girls done a bit.. maybe just lifted... they are fixing to be in a sad state once I lose the remaining weight.

I'm also going to get on the other end of the camera lens... tired of hiding behind it. I will do my "thin" photoshoot - and then invite all the fools that used to make fun of me for being "fat" in highschool (when I wasn't fat, i was 6' tall - and they ruined my concept of "fat")
to facebook.

I am going to walk into the Guess store and buy jeans, not just stand there while my fiancee does and have the girls look at me with disgust.

I will have a party.

I will buy a bathing suit.

I will most likely streak through my house naked, and not be embarrased.

Finish my tattoo.

I will go to the freaking club!

I will steal my sisters clothes.

I will love myself more than I ever thought I could... i love me now - I can only imagine what it will be like then!
