Two goals come to mind right now.
First, in January DH and I plan on going back to Hawaii (we went this past January) and there is this hike that is something like 11 miles or so. You have to get permits to camp overnight because it's supposed to take more than one day to go back and forth. I would really love to do this by then.

Second, when I was in high school a huge passion of mine was dance. The desire to be involved in dance has remained with me. I've said that when I get down to 160 (only 28 lbs to go) I will start taking some dance classes again (should be better lookin in a leotard around then). Heck, I told DH that if I find I really love it like I used to I may even go get a minor in Dance.

I'm sure I'll have more goals over time but those are more "closer" reaching goals.

I used to sky dive...and I want to again. I also want to ski again. And I'd love to water ski once again before I die...

I would love to learn to ride my unicycle that I got for my 12th birthday. I also would like to be able to go to the beach to fly kites and actually enjoy it, rather than be sitting the whole time because my knees hurt to much to walk in the sand.

Default Goals....not all exercise related...

Let's see, here are a few that I have already met which were huge to me, but probably nothing to someone else:

1. Crossing my legs like a lady (without actually PICKING my leg up to cross it)
2. Horseback riding without having to have a step ladder and two or three people help me up.
3. Getting on a crowded elevator and not having to do the mental math to see if I am the person that puts everyone's life in danger because I am too fat.
4. Walking into a room and not thinking about my weight first.

Future goals:

1. Getting married in a BEEYOOOOOTIFUL WHITE wedding gown (yeah, I know I got three kids and a grandkid - it's my wedding ) that makes me look like a princess.
2. Taking dancing lessons so I can slow dance with a man.
3. Working my way up on the treadmill to where I can actually run.
4. Hiking through the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee.
