Ponderings

Lately I've been thinking about what I'm going to do once I reach my goal weight. I mean once you get there then what? Sure you have to keep it up for the rest of your life which is exactly what all this is about (remember, losing weight is about healthy lifestyle changes) but what do you do once the all consuming thoughts of "need to lose weight", "today's a cardio day" or "dear god what's the scale going to say this morning" are no longer necessary? I propose making a list of things you will do once the scale is no longer tipping in the wrong direction.

I think that once one goal has been reached I will want to go for another. I mean honestly, there's no point in saying "alright I've lost 50lbs, pass the low cal chips" and then have everything start over again. So without further ado, here's what I'm going to do once I hit the 125lbs marker:

1. Run a 10K marathon (a little pretentious on my part but I'm sure I'll kick ass)
2. Get a tattoo (don't know where, don't know what but I have a good 40lbs down to think about it)
3. Cut my hair uber short (sorta the same as shedding that last pound)
4. Buy a bikini for the first time in my life

Now I'm sure I have plenty more things that I'd love to do once I reach my goal although that will have to wait. I'd love to hear about what you guys will do. Let me know!

PS I'm working on a new layout so watch out!
