I want to be a Special Agent in the FBI. You may wonder what that has to do with weight loss, but they've got physical requirements just to get into the training program, so I've got to get in shape before I can even apply.
I don't know if it's a "weird" goal, but here it is:
I want to be able to take part with my brother in an annual charity race called the "Mud Run."
You can run alone, or in a team. It's about a 3 mile course where you crawl, run, and wade through various mud pits, getting thoroughly dirty by the end of it.
Even for people in shape it is an exhausting course, since it involves hills, and slogging through thick mud.
My brother is pretty fit: he runs often and lifts weights. He competes almost every year in the Mud-Run with friends, and next year I'd like to be one of his team mates.
I would also love to be a personal trainer but I too am a far cry from that!
Other than that I want someone to say I am hot or sexy. I get beautiful... But that is such a dull adjective and to me is a nice sort of cop out. I want a man I don't know say dang she's hot!!!!
I want to be around for my grandchildren, I want to live life to it's fullest, I want to smile every chance I get, I want to fit in airplane seats when I go visit my fiancee's parents in the UK, I want to be able to take hikes with my family, I want to swim in the ocean and not feel like a beached whale, I want to shop at any store I want - not just Lane Bryant, I want to find inner peace which goes hand and hand with physical health, I want to be able to sit still and not worry if my rolls are hanging over and most of all I want to do know that I did it. I over came this, I held on, I won and that there is nothing that I cannot do when I put my mind to it and God is present.
Weird goals... I want to perform professionally as a belly dancer (in addition to whatever job I find when I finish school). It doesn't necessarily require that I be thin, but it does require being in good shape.
Me too, actually! I was thinking the other day ab how I'd like to be a certified fitness instructor/personal trainer and do that part time in the evenings, sort of freelance. That would be cool
I also want to run a marathon one day.

I want to run my first quarter marathon in November, and i would like to be able to wear a bikini in Summer (which is Dec/Jan time here). Not sure if i'll make it for the bikini, but i really have no excuse for the marathon! Dunno if those are weird goals as such though...probably lots of people have similar given my exercise track record they are pretty weird though XD
I'd like to be able to wear a bikini. Also to run a marathon but, sad to say, the first is more important to me! Iconised, we seem to have very similar goals.
Kate, I don't think your goal is daft. I know a couple of women (via my Mum) who are personal trainers and both say they used to be overweight, exercised to lose the weight, and then liked it so much they decided to stay, so to speak. Good luck anyway!

yay common goals! if i am honest then the bikini is also more important to me, but the marathon is important because it is my means to getting into that skimpy piece of swim wear!
my goal, which i would never be able to do,
- is to become a model =.=' (yes, yes, i know =.=')
- and then, i want to be an actress... lol
well, at least both of these dreams, the first thing i need to have is a fit body -.-' which yeah, i could say that i'm trying to achieve my goal (lol)
sigh.....a 20 years old dream gurl >.<"
any weird goals?
given my exercise track record they are pretty weird though XD
