What's a non-number goal you have?

Aside from seeing numbers on the scale go down, what is a goal you are excited to accomplish?

Mine is getting small enough to get back on a roller coaster! Loved these as a kid but got to the point where being able to ride was an embarrassment when I was too big to know for sure if I would fit and after several rejections after trying years ago at Cedar Point, I gave up.

(PS, you can add me if you like!)

    I'd love to be able to do push-ups. I'm training myself now on how to do a real set of push-ups. It's much harder than I thought.

    I have some lifting goals I want to hit. I hit one the other day (200 pound back squat!!). Most of mine are weight lifted goals or completing certain endurance events.

    Two years ago, I reached my goal weight. Then I regained almost 20 LBS. I have a pair of white capris that I was able to wear before that now, although I can still button them, I look like a sausage stuffed in a casing!
    Come Hell or high water, I WILL wear those capris on my cruise in August!

    I want to be able to do more push-ups than my husband (this is a constantly moving target).

    I ordered a jersey for a soccer team, Go Oranje!, and it came from China. The XL size looks like it was meant for a 160lb person. I want to fit that shirt.

    All three of my brothers have diabetes and I'd like to avoid that if possible, or at least delay onset.

    My ultimate goal is to be able to walk into a wedding dress shop and be able to try on any dress I want. Not just ones that come in plus sizes.

    I have a top that I wore on the first date with my now husband. I wasn't at my goal weight then but I loved the way the top fit me. I want to wear it on our 8 year dating anniversary this December.

    Does a 6-pack count as a non-number goal?
    Just kidding actually, my number one goal is to keep on lifting without coping with (too much) injuries.
    And ofcourse being around the people I love..

    I just reached my half way goal for the year in teaching aquatic fitness. My aquatic director called today to let me know I would be adding 2 Aqua Zumba classes to my schedule starting on Tuesday.

    My goal is to be teaching six classes by the end of the year.
