What do you plan to do when you reach your goal?

I'm just wondering, for those who have an end goal in mind, do you have any plans for celebration?

For those who don't have an end-goal, when you hit specific milestones do you celebrate and do you have plans for future milestones?

    What do I plan on doing when I hit my goal weight? I'm gonna sashay my way into a NON-plus size store and take in the smells, the feels, the looks of all those NON-plus sized clothes and buy some new clothes :-)

    I have done little things for myself as I reach each goal that I set for myself. But, I am finding, that my goals change the further I get into my journey. Originally, I just wanted to lose some weight. Now, I need to decrease my bf%. But, there have been lots of changes since the start in July. My big reward, though, for losing my desired weight, was a trip with my family. And, we are taking a trip to Disney for Christmas!

    Land or World? I am actually planning a trip in the fall if I hit my goal of 165

    I am planning to get rid of all my old clothes and go shopping.
    And also I was thinking about getting belly button piercing, that was just a spontaneous thought that came to my mind the other day, so we will see :-)

    I plan on getting a tummy tuck and a breast lift. lol Definately going to need it! But on the fun side, I have never been able to go shopping at a regular store and find clothes easily, so I think a new wardrobe that didn't come from plus stores is a must! And I told my husband that I want to go to a military ball skinny so I can wear a sexy dress, for once. I think it will feel amazing to be the sexy wife for a change!

    I plan on going shopping for a whole new wardrobe, and if all goes according to plan I will reach my GW by my graduation next year. So I will also be celebrating that at the same time!

    Travel to Europe! Or just revel in my new body and new life. Or both.... Yeah, both :glasses:

    And Harry potter world! And Disney land! And the clothing stores/departments that are no longer off limits because I will be out of those limited plus size clothes FOREVER! :bigsmile:

    You mean AFTER I'm done crying and running around the gym and shopping area shouting, 'ADRIAAAAAAAAN!' like Rocky?

    Hmm good question. I picture that day in my head all the time, but can't tell you what it'll be like for sure.

    First, I'll remind my husband of his agreement to quit smoking when my goal is reached. Next, I'll continue working to make sure I don't gain the weight back.

    New clothes and *maybe* a boob job! I haven't decided yet. I'm on the fence between loving my "natural" I-had-two-babies body and wanting to complete the package with a little work. :wink:

    For each 10 pounds lost, a day trip to the hot springs. For final goal met, new running shoes. And maybe a new swimsuit :)

    When I hit my first milestone I am taking my family to an amusement park and show them that I can finally fit on all the rides! As you can see in my picture we went last year and I could go on a few rides. :frown: Not sure after that, one step at a time. :smile:
