What's Your Goal Other Than Weight Loss

My husband and I were talking the other day and he asked me "have you thought of one goal ... something you can't do now, but want to when you've lost your weight?" and my response was at first "duh- I got a laundry list!!" but he said ... "no, I mean find something you never thought you'd be able to do and reach for that"

Well I found it!!!

5k Run for Your Lives - ZOMBIE RUN!

I live near Kings Island too!! Well, I'm about a half hour away closer to Cincinnati but my husband works off of the same exit as KI. We were there today just for a little while to activate our gold passes. I'm 5 days post-op so I'm taking things slowly. My youngest is 4 so I mostly stood around with him in lines and walked. It was exhausting but I've been told the first two weeks are the worst!

I did the Zombie run a week before my surgery- in Amsbury MA. And I scanned the crowd and I was the biggest chubbiest person there.. I was slow- and made my friends go on without me. But I finished it. I can't wait to do it again next year- hopefully 100lbs lighter!! I just want to fit

On roller coasters with my son.. And travel without needing an extra seatbelt extender on airplanes!!

Definitely cannot wait for cheaper clothes and a ride on a roller coaster. My husband already wants to go window shopping. I just had my surgery on 5/22.

My goal: I told my 9 yr old son that once I lost enough weight that next summer we are going to an amusement park and ride rides together! Can't wait to enjoy life to its fullest! And not have to worry if the bar will lock, or if the seatbelt latches!! He can't wait!!

I want to do an AFF skydive, I've did a tandem when I was about 50lbs lighter but looked like a stuffed sausage in the jumpsuit.
