When I’m At My Goal Weight…
I figure it’s way past time I answer one of the Mailbag Monday questions, eh? This week’s question is, if I do say so myself, a good one. I think it’s a great exercise for people to do more than once on their way to getting fit.
What is the first thing you’ll do when you get to your goal weight?
Hanlie has some great ideas over on her blog – including one that I might have to steal…
I think the idea of a photo shoot is absolutely excellent. When I get to my goal weight – which is about 160 (unless I am perfectly happy at 170) – I would love to have a professionally done shoot with my husband. We didn’t have engagement pictures done and we have some nice wedding photos, but I’d love to get a really good shot of both of us.
I think the other thing I would do is go in search of ‘the little black dress’. I’ve always wanted a nice, sexy black number to wear out somewhere special. I’m saving the pleasure, though, as part of my ‘ultimate’ reward (including a night out in inner Melbourne).
Photo shoot, little black dress to wear on a night out on the town… Sounds like the perfect way to celebrate, don’t you think?
Then again. I would definitely settle for getting a positive pregnancy test, too… Haha! My apologies to Mr. JM if he’s reading this. Fertility is an issue as well, though. Who would have thought I’d ever look forward to the day I could have a TOM naturally?

Oh I’m definitely going to have at least one baby before reaching goal! I’m not waiting around for that to happen… we’re starting ttc again on my 40th birthay, which is in September. By then I would have lost a lot of weight, though of course not all, and balanced my hormones. I’ll be fit as a fiddle.
Yeah, the more I think about it, the more I like the photo shoot idea…

Excellent blog. First time here for me. I think I will be coming here often.
