What's on your bucket list?



Recommended Posts

Tell me... what is on your bucket list now that you have reached a non-scale victory (NSV) or ultimate goal?

Is there something you want to do that you've never dreamed of doing?

Spill it!

I've been at goal for a little over two years and life is awesome!

I do mud runs with my kids, I am a martial arts instructor, I run the dunes in Kill Devil Hills, I Zumba. I am no longer self conscious of my size when I travel, I can fit in airplane seat and down the aisles of various means of transportation without have to shuffle sideways sucking in my gut. Theatre seats are comfy, hotel bath towels fit all the way around me and amusement parks ride operators no longer grimace when they see me coming.

And the shopping...don't even get me started.

I just want to live life to the fullest. My sister asked if I wanted to do this crazy obstacle course/zip line adventure and I said yes without hesitating. We went yesterday and got to the section where you choose the 'easy' or 'challenging' route and we just smiled at each other and went left. It was like Ninja Warrior in the trees with a harness on. We completed 49 courses/zip lines and we had a BLAST. All I could think is how impossible it would've been even 50 lbs ago. Of course I won't be able to wear shorts for a week or two now...

On my bucket list once I reach goal weight:

I want to do a zip line in the NC mountains through the trees!

I'm saving for a Splash Painting by Christina Grenard.

And I want to hike around Crater Lake in Oregon.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
