What would you do if you knew you could not fail (besides TTGP)?

TJtheGoat

Play the lottery! 

meggyme

@TJtheGoat that's a good one!

I would do something to get MH stationed back in San Diego forever. I miss CA.

meri-mac

@TJtheGoat That is a very good answer. I think you won this before it started

I would fly!

catlady2015

Invent a way to eat pizza and cupcakes and still lose weight. 

TJtheGoat

@meggyme San Diego is a nice city. My brother lives there. It’s just a cool, chill spot. 

@meri-mac Im scared of heights, so flying is a no-go for me, but I love that you’re thinking out of the box. If I can possibly use it to finesse powers, maybe I should compete in the Olympics

Quit my job and be a fulltime writer. 

@meggyme SD is so beautiful. We just left SoCal. Hopefully you can find a way back. 

@catlady2015 I think you nailed it! How amazing it would be to eat whatever. 

sparklingdiamond

Be able to eat whatever i want without it having negative health consequences.  And find a way to move to Scotland!

TJtheGoat

@catlady2015 Ooh you’ve inspired me! I always say in my next life I want to not be lactose intolerant. So, eat all the dairy I want and not be sick. 

Sparty18

Marry JT  (sorry H...)

nitnat007

Oh man, so many good ones. 

@catlady2015 @sparklingdiamond I think you guys are on to something there. I would definitely be a cupcake junky!! 

@TJtheGoat Yup, and win it big too!

I think I would quit my job and have a small animal rescue farm. Take in all the animals, dogs, pigs, goats, horses....you name it! To have a family living farm life would be amazing. 

meri-mac

@nitnat007 Further to that, I would buy a home. If I can't fail, why not? It certainly won't happen otherwise :P

@CatLady2015 @sparklingdiamond
Have you two ever heard of "Intuitive Eating"-it might interest you. I learned about it earlier this year and it has been life-changing. If you like to read, the book is great! If you like to listen, "RD Real Talk" podcast did a 10 episode series on it starting in January 2018.  "Food Psych" is another great podcast that shares it's belief system. 

Now...anything? I love the idea of being an official running coach, but I think that I could eventually do that. Something I would love to do that I don't think I could do would become a cheerleader for a professional football or basketball team. My coordination and flexibility are pretty brutal. I took a dance class once...it was interesting

purplg8r

I’d try to Boston qualify (for the marathon)

navete

I’d become a photographer for National Geographic and travel around the world. OMG I’m giddy just thinking about that 

general_organa

I'd go back in time and become a movie star! #childhooddream

If I can't go back in time, I steal @TJtheGoat's answer and play the lottery. 

JLaVO888

@TJtheGoat  Lactose intolerant buddy right here! I’ve gotten to where I don’t even really like ice cream though and can eat cheese in small doses so I’m not sure I would ise my “wish” on that. But it is tempting. 

Pick a job I knew I would love that often doesn’t hold a guaranteed sense of security (at least in my anxiety ridden mind). Like open my own food truck, bar, or florist. I love making random mixed drinks for my friends. I just tell them to pick the type of liquor they like and I find random crap in the house to mix it with. We came up with the idea of having a bar called “Pick your Poision” where people could come and do the same thing and get a surprise drink. I think I would love that job!

@purplg8r Ah Boston! I've ran it twice. Definitely a great dream to have. I'm happy to talk running anytime  

purplg8r

@professional_ruminator unfortunately I’ll never be fast enough to qualify!  I’m super jealous of you!  

kiki047

So many good answers so far! 

I would have picked a different major in University. I totally took the safe route because I was lazy and scared of flunking out. I did the bare minimum because a mediocre result was easier to swallow if I knew I only half-assed it. If I was guaranteed success, I’d have gone into social work. 

Part of me thinks I’d go back in time and maybe change the way I approached dating in my teens, because I was so painfully shy and awkward that fear of rejection was crippling. But then I also don’t know that I’d be where I am today (with my soul mate) so I have no regrets there. 

lelkcot

Love all these!

I’d move to the islands and open a little cafe! Beach life here we come!

navete

@LElkCot I was just discussing plans with a friend about opening a little coffee shop in the islands! It’s just a dream but fun to talk about  

kiki047

@TJtheGoat @JLaVO888 another lactose intolerant sufferer here. If the question was “what would you eat if you knew you wouldn’t get sick/fat” then my answer would probably be old white cheddar or whipping cream out of the bowl. lol.

@LElkCot @navete  If you guys open a coffee shop I’ll supply the baked goods! 

professional_ruminator

@purplg8r You could always go the charity fundraising route then. Just saying!    

lelkcot

@kiki047 & @navete it’s one of MH and my favorite day-dreams! But I’m pretty sure our mothers would lose it if we ever got serious about moving that far away!

navete

@LElkCot Which island(s) do you guys day dream about? Maybe there are some islands close enough to make both moms happy 

lelkcot

@navete usually St John or St Thomas - since our mom’s are use to having us within an hour & a half drive I think they would freak!  or try & move in with us!
