How will you celebrate reaching your goal?



Recommended Posts

Setting and actually reaching our goal weight is a really big accomplishment. Most of us have been overweight for years and some of us have battled weight our entire lives. We have all tried a failed dozens of times. Reaching our weight loss goal will be a major life event. Has anyone thought of what they plan to do to mark the occasion? I'm just curious.

I don't know. Probably go for a long hike and have a good cry.

I've been big my whole life, I have no idea what to expect when I am not an overweight person.

My husband told me years ago that if I ever lost all my weight he would take me on a trip to anywhere I wanted in the world....I think deep down inside he thought there was a very slim chance that would have happened..But not anymore................

My plan is a trip to Holland during the Tulip festival.........Wanted to do that since I was a small girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going big! I'm sending myself on a scuba trip with adults only. I'm always doing everything for everyone as a single mom, and I deserve a trip to reward myself...

I know this doesn't sound too exciting, but when I get this weight off I'm going to take a ton of pictures with my son, I only have a few due to obviously not liking to take pictures. Amongst other things I really do look forward to this.

When I finally hit goal I plan on at least speaking to a plastic surgeon about a breast lift. No implants because I like my smaller boobs :) Also I'll explore the possibility of having excess skin removed from my abdomen. It's not too bad now, so I'll have to see how much excess there is.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
