THE FIRST THING YOU'RE GOING TO DO WHEN YOU HIT YOUR GOAL?

I know it's a hard road for most of us but we must remember to keep our eyes on the prize! We are doing so much good and our bodies are very thankful!

Whether you're a beginner (like myself) or you have been on this program for awhile and have are approaching your goal, I would like to know what is the VERY first thing you are going to do when you reach your goal!

I'm trying to lose 30lbs and at my last weigh in I was 2lbs slimmer! I haven't weighed myself in 2weeks but I can see the difference already.

Just knowing you're gonna have the body you've dreamed of going to or getting back to is AMAZING and very often the anticipation is uncontrollable! I wish it would happen overnight! LOL

I think the very first thing I'm going to do when I reach my goal is slip into an old dress of mine that I wouldn't dare wear now and stare at myself LOL. "I DID IT!"

Your turn!

    I am going to continue just as I am. This is not a diet for me, but a way of life. The moment I think "the diet" is over, I will gain back my weight. Been there. Done that. When I reach my goal weight, again, I will increase my calories slighty, and keep logging my food and exercise so I maintain a healthy weight and lifestyle.
  • The first thing I do when hit my goal is set a new goal. The only limit is how many plates I can stack on the bar. There's no such thing as too swole.

    Buy lots of sexy bras and undies (I just decided this the other day while looking at my shrunken boobies.) And some lululemon yoga pants (expensive but they make *kitten* look amazing!) :bigsmile:

    i make a new goal when i get close to the one im on so im never not working for something!
  • @tuulikki30 That's a great mindset! Also when you stay active you won't have to worry about counting calories as much! That was one reason among others that I joined the cheerleading squad in college a couple years back! Hmmm..."I can have the burger because I know I'm going to burn it all off today." Lol that was my mentality! Only thing is when I stopped being active (and had baby weight) I didn't know how to balance it all out. That's why I'm so grateful for this program.

    @justsomerando that's wonderful! You go girl!=)

    I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT GIRL! THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I FEEL! And I have to check those yoga pants out! Right now I'm addicted to leggings because I love the way they hug my shape and my fanny! Candies has theeee best legging EVERY! Super comfy, form fitting and the waist isn't tight but just right!

    My current goal is to get up to 185 pounds. So I guess the first thing I'm going to do when I reach that is redo my diet so I can lose all the fat I gained lol. Should be lots of fun, I always enjoy losing weight and seeing what I've gained.

    first thing i am going to do is take a damn picture of the scale, step off and back on about 500 times just to be sure then run to my computer and Post it to all my wonderful MFP family. then carry on with my day. Sorry but like someone already said this is my lifestyle now so there is no end.

    As much as I hate the BMI scale, I'd really like to hit the "healthy" section and my new goal would put me .1 under lol

    Some new clothes - because I expect I will need them! But one thing I've promised myself is some higher-end workout wear, because I plan to stay at that healthy weight, so it will be worth getting 'the good stuff' instead of the cheaper ones.

    YES HONEY! YES! SO WILL I! I CAN'T WAIT:))
