What are your non-scale goals??



Recommended Posts

I am putting together a list for myself. It includes everything I CAN'T WAIT to do once I lose weight!! My favorite is to be able to cross my legs. But I also have things like not shopping in the plus size stores, not struggling to put my shoes on, etc. My hope is that I can look at this list when things get tough and be able to re-motivate myself.

So what's on your list? I want to make my list as long as possible so I feel fantastic when I am able to cross something off!

Big goal get into a regular size 10!!

Get to my goal and get a boob job- the girls have been down way to long.

To be able to wear shorts and short sleeves with out feeling self consious. Hopefuly this summer!!

LAP BAND GOALS

1. Be able to go clothes shopping at NY & Co.

2. Wear my wedding band and/or engagement ring. (Haven't been able to wear for 10 years)

3. Have a Facebook profile picture. I always use a landscape or my kids as a profile pic because I am ashamed and would be mortified for those I went to high school with to see what I look like now. (My weight DOUBLED since graduation)

4. I have a son with special needs and I need to stick around for a long time because he probably won't be be able to live on his own.

5. Good health, both mentally and physically.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
