I first want to give a shout out to JennJitters for inspiring me to write this blog. I saw a blog she put out where she listed all the things she wanted to do when she lost the weight and I wanted to do the same thing. I am one week post op today and I wanted a list of things that I could look back on in 9 months or a year and say "yes! I did that"
 
You don't have to read all the way through, It will probably be a fairly long list because there are allot of things I want to be able to do. This is mostly just for me but I am willing to share it because I know that you all probably feel the same way about most of these things...
Learn how to rock climb
Hike and summit any mountain I feel like (I love the Olympics)
Go horseback riding and not feel like I'm killing the horse
Have children and be able to play with them
Be in shape for the first time in my life
Walk into a room and not think everyone is staring at me because I'm big
Have my first ever Valentines Day date
Take the stairs not wishing there was an elevator
Be able to get cloths at any store without wondering if they have my size
Ware cloths in the single digits
Be confident in myself
Fit in the rides at the fair.. I love rides!
Ware a bikini and feel good about it
Learn how to snowboard
Be able to buy shews that are not "wide"
Be able to ware high heal shoes for more than 20 minutes without being in pain
Sky dive! Oh yes I really want to do this! lol
Have a man pick me up
Not be controlled by food
Eat to live not live to eat
Buy longerie and feel good wearing it
Be able to have pretty panties that are not hidden under a roll
Be able to share cloths with my sister (she has the coolest cloths!)
Take full body pictures and not hate them
Have only one size of cloths in my closet (not 5 different sizes depending on what diet I am on this week)
Be comfortable in a normal size sleeping bag
Go to the gym and not be self conscious
To be able to fit comfortably on an airplane
To be able to do a hand stand... why not?
To be able to do advanced yoga
Get a tattoo
Fit in a playground swing without hurting my hips
To feel sexy

Now lets see how long it takes to mark off a few of these

So last night my hubby and I stayed up watching sleevers on YouTube and it got me excited, scared, but excited I bought a bunch of 'goodies' on Thursday. It's amazing how 'goodies' have changed I bought fresh sweet Kale, protein powder, coconut milk, greek yogurt and ground flaxseed. My hubby bought me the Ninja for Christmas in preparation of the is day coming so I thought no time like the present I put two leaves of Kale, 4 fresh strawberries, 1/2 banana, three spoonfuls of greek yogurt, one scoop protein powder, a handful of blueberries, some coconut milk and ice cubes. All I can say is YUCK!!!!!!!! I don't know if it's the whey powder, the Kale or let's be honest just the whole thing but it SUCKED!!! I'll try a new one on Monday
