@@fabnsab ...I'm making a goal chart with rewards every time I reach a particular weight. When I lose 50 pounds...I'm buying myself some cow girl boots...LOL!

I also made a list of things I'm looking forward to...a weight loss bucket list...if you will! Some things: fitting into my wedding ring again, rock climbing, family photo shoot, being able to cross my legs, horseback riding, being able to wrap myself in a towel, etc etc!

I'm excited!

[fabnsab 19]

Oh Jen, that list is MY list!! Lol

So many times, I've thought "I can't wait to have a towel wrap around me!"

And my wedding ring...I tell people I don't like to wear jewelry as the reason I don't wear it. I can't wait for it to slip on!

Girl, pick out those boots! You're going to earn them fast.

[JenSan120 10]

Fab....I already have them picked out...LOL!

I'm so looking forward to wrapping a Yoel around me and crossing my legs when I sit!!

Good luck everyone! ????????

Also, I'm 6'2...hence the high goal weight.
