Here is what I am hoping the Lap Band will help me do
I've been thinking a lot about the Band, and actually what I want the band to help me accomplish - so here goes some things I am hoping to achieve in the next few years:
1. I want back in my bikini! I haven't worn it since, well, 14 years ago.
2. I want a fit body, not just healthy but toned, I want my atheletic shape back - the one way to do this is EXERCISE (note to self, get off the couch and MOVE)
3. I want to buy sexy clothes again! and not only buy them, but be able to wear them and feel good in them.
4. I want to be able to bend down and tie my shoes without the breath being knocked out of me. - DONE!
5. I want to be able to get in the tub and not have my ASS take up the entire tub, side to side - oh this sucks. - DONE!
6. I want to be able to cross my legs. - DONE!
7. I want to be able to wear shorts without them riding up my crotch.
8. I want to be able to walk without my thighs rubbing each other and sweating in the summer and leaving that horrible heat rash!
9. I want to be able to push food away and not feel the need to clean up the entire plate.- Still working on this one!
10. I don't want food to be my focus in life.- Getting better!
11. I want my kids to be proud of me.
12. I want to feel beautiful again and not 40 & fat.
13. I want to be able to buy a low rise pair of jeans without my stomach hanging over. my current jeans go clear up to my belly button.
14. I want to be able to have sex with my DH and not feel the need to "turn the lights off".
15. I want to become where exercise is a part of my life, where I crave exercise like I crave chocolate.- Becoming more and more part of my life!
16. I want to inspire other people to lose weight.
17. I want to become a personal trainer.
18. I want to buy attractive Teddies to wear instead of my sweatpants and tee shirts to bed.
19. I want to be proud of my weight, not ashamed.
20. I want people to be shocked that I am 40 because I look younger, not shocked because I am 40 and I look 50.
PS - my weight this morning 229.2
