What's the 1st thing you will do for yourself when you hit your goal weight?

Just curious if others have put off doing something for themselves because of their weight.

I want a cute short haircut. I have kept my hair long ever since I was told that my short hair made me look fatter. And yes, that was from a "close" friend.

Even though I like to dress (when I can) in flats, a cocktail dress, and a pea coat . . . lemme tell ya honey child I would go out and buy myself a full outfit and strut my stuff something FIERCE (Right now I don't always feel like I look like a million bucks, but I lovelovelove the style so I wear it now anyways LOL).

I would also buy a bikini and go on a trip with my best friends and/or significant other (if I have one when he time occurs ;D)

OH! And I will sing jazz at an open mic night . . . I know "What the heck does your weight have to do with singing", right? In reality nothing and everything at the same time! I have just grown into the habit of having stage fright (when I used to be way ok with being on stage) and being overall VERY self conscious.

SO YEAH :D! Awesome thread! Forced me to write this down so now it is set in stone ;D!

I am on my way to my goal weight. I am about 5 lbs off so, it won't be long. But I want to maintain it forever. After a month of maintaining it I am heading home to see my family and friends. But mostly after maintaining a healthy lifestyle for one year, I am going back to Greece. Next step, aquiring my Personal Training Certifiacate. That is the ultimate goal.

I am doing this for myself and for no one else. I just want to be healthy and strong physically as well as emotionally! That is the reward!

I haven't ridden a horse in 30 years. Thats what I will do when I reach my goal weight.  Spend the day riding horses. I can't wait.

sounds great, alleyway!

i absolutely LOVE horseback riding. In fact, I have a lesson this afternoon :)

i can walk, trot, canter and jump 2'3"...its awesome!

how long did you ride for? 

I know not anywhere close to my goal right now, which is lose 70 pounds :)! But I know I will be eventually! haha there is no doubts that I'm gonan do it this time. When I reach my goal I will

1) Buy my first bikini that I have worse since I was 8... since I was like 13 I have been to self concious to even where a regular swim suit I wore tshirts and a shorts everytime I went to the lake or swimming pool

2)I will go show off to my AUNT that I can lose the weight... since she made fun of me during my chubby years.

3)I will tell the guy at work that said he would only date me if I was skinny... that I will not date him now!

4)I will tell my high school crush how I felt about him... since we are friends haha.

Boy I had to think a long time about this question. I cant think of one thing that would be that big of a reward.Im 56 so there isnt a lot that I really want to do that Im not doing now. I already have that size 12 totally awsome show out fit that my Hubby bought me several years ago as insperation. And yes I will want new clothes, but they are not that important.

Ive already had several 1st places with my horse, while still fat, so guess thats not really a goal.

I would like to get on any horse without having to use a step (I broke my back in 93 in a horse accident) but I think that will happen on its own,

Ive never really wanted a bikini, a nice one peice looks good. Besides a Idiot doctor who gave me a emergency gall blader and overies removed left me with 18 inches of railroad tracks,I asked him why he did that, and he said" I didnt think you would be wearing a bikini". And when I had my horse accident in 93 i also lost my spleen, another 12 inces of scars. So a bikini is not high on my scale. LOL

Im not into running a triathalon(sp) or anything like that.

Im 56, not to intersted in anykind of piercing or tatoo

I guess my reward will be that, I can keep it off, and stay fit and healthy.

I think I will try harder to make some new friends, that could be a goal, right.

The first thing, will be to up my calorie intake to maintain my weight....sorry but I love food way too much

Next I will splurge on designer jeans, size 1, 100 bucks...and maybe even a nice pair of heels...yes I'm a shoe girl.

Then I will set up a photoshoot for myself because I miss modeling.  :(

Boots! I want to fit into some nice boots. Can't get any over my fat calves now!

A whole new expensive outfit. Well actually I was promised one from my mom if I get to my target AND maintain for 4 months :)

I'm going to get this bathing suit! (I haven't even worn a bathing suit in years...it's going to be hot!)

Only 7 pounds to go...

Yes I agree!! Skanky but tasteful lol....

Hmm maybe I could get one of those slutty Halloween costumes that I keep poking fun at in October lol.

go on a $2000 shopping spree! who deserves that better than me?

$100 shopping spree, most of my xmas money saved up!

i barely started cc 6 days ago and i cant wait until i reach my goal in april! =]

Italy Weight Goal (133): Get a proper deep conditioning from a beauty salon for my hair, to make my unruly curls all gorgeous (hopefully) instead of quick-to-frizz whilst I'm in Italy.

Main Weight Goal (123): Ask my mum for $100, if we have the money.  That can buy ME a whole new wardrobe, because of the type of shopper I am.

If I Ever Look Nice in a Bikini (o_o  I'll let someone who is willing to be brutally honest tell me): Buy a simple, tasteful bikini.  Wear it to the beach in the middle of tourist season.  See if I make any heads turn. =\
Except I might still cover up, since I feel weird when exposed.

When I hit my goal, me and my boyfriend are going shoppin' in NewYork.

Never been there. Would love to shop their.

Every pound I lose my mother said- she will give me 10 dollars, and so far I have $490.00. Not enough for NewYork, but it will do.

She also will add $1000 for new clothes.

That promise is in writing. I don't deal with her without a contract.

My dad has already giving me one of the many things I wanted. Now it's time for her to pay up. I got 32 more to go. My father told me to do this for you, and mean it......

SW 2007 March 226lbs--CW 2008 March 24 175.5

LOL

Just wanted to do an update. 

To everyone who had fun and replied to my post, Thanks. I hope one and all get to have their dreams realized.

I still have 100 lbs to lose, but decided to quit putting off doing something I really wanted because of my weight.

Yep, I got all my hair cut off. And I am so happy I did. Now I wish I had done it 20 years ago.  Unfortunately, I let the hurtful words of another make my decision for me. Never again.

I actually have some tattoo ideas, but I need to lose more weight, otherwise tattoos can look bad if you get them on a fatty spot and suddenly lose weight there. Some I'm saving my ideas for a few months when I get down to my 150 lbs! Can't wait!
