Whats On Your Bucket List?

Just want to know what's on your bucket list when you get to goal? Or are you like me and have a reward/co-goal with each milestone? Here are mine:

1. To get my nose pierced again

2. To get a tattoo when I get to goal - currently don't have any and I don't know what I would get!

3. To go to Mexico - another thing I have never done! Wouldn't feel comfortable in a swim suit at the moment

4. To go to Disneyland - never been, wouldn't fit on the rides at this size, but wanna go in January

5. Buy a romper - for those who don't know what that is, google it! Rompers are so cute, espeiclally the ones with shorts. Can't wai to flaunt it in one

6. Zip lining

Your turn!

2. Buy a very sexy slinky beautiful dress from one of those high end stores.

3. Have my one year surgery anniversary/birthday party in a fabulos city like Vegas or NYC.

4. Walk/run in a marathon!

5. Celebrate with a glass of champagne the day I get into any outfit that is not a plus size.

Great question! Things like this keep me motivated!

1) Do the Color Run

2) Do the Tough Mudder

3) Wear Shorts -- I have NEVER EVER worn shorts. EVER - not even as a kid. My mum didn't like that my thighs touched at the top!

4) Be able to endure the physical strain of volunteering in El Salvador this Summer!

5) Disappear for week into the woods of NorCal and not die from exhaustion of lugging my self around!

I have tons more, I just can't seem to think of them!

I have NEVER EVER worn shorts either. Not even as a kid. How sad it that?

Keda, you know Danm well your soon to be skinny ass wont be parading in no nude beach lol

(she could at Hedo....so I've been told!)

1. Playing Tennis again. Learn to play golf

2. Clothes clothes clothes. I've always teased my husband that it's a good thing I'm not thin because I'd been on Oprah confessing my shopping/clothes addiction. I'd love to be able to wear cute Maxi dresses...and actually look cute in it!

3. Go to Europe and be able to do all the walking that is necessary without getting completely exhausted.

4. Maybe take up horseback riding again. I had horses all through my childhood and teenage years and my dream is to one day live in a place where I could keep a couple of horses.

I'm still thinking of other things... I'll get back to you. There are probably hundreds of things!!!!

Here are some more ....

  • Go back to Hawaii, back Kauai and Maui ....and instead of just walking around the secluded hidden beaches than we found, actually play IN the surf and crashing waves....in a bathing suit instead of jeans and shirt.

  • Actually hook back up with childhood and school/college friends who have contacted/found me on Facebook. I'm sure they think I'm a b***h or aloof... the truth is I don't want them to see me. So so sad how this blubber ruins lives...
