Cleosan52 6 Posted August 12, 2010 I made a huge list on my blog. I just want to be able to "live"! I want to enjoy life with my family and I can't wait! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krista2653 5 Posted August 12, 2010 I have a lot of "wants", but my biggest one is to KICK PCOS TO THE CURB, BECOME FERTILE AND START A FAMILY! That is the most important... The next most satisfying one would be to cut up my plus-size clothing store credit card because nothing from there fits anymore! HA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted August 12, 2010 I only had one goal when I had surgery and that was to stop shopping in the plus size department. I can't tell you how nice it is to take a medium to the dressing room and find out it's too big. I still have no desire to wear heals, or tuck my shirts in and wear belts.

DallMike 0 Posted August 12, 2010 1. More sex, better sex. Hey, I'm a guy! 2. Buy anything off the rack at Bass or Eddie Bauer. 3. Walk into a sports store and not be ignored by the clerks. 4. Run a 10k. After I do a 5k and a 1k and 100 yards! Bike 50 miles too. 5. More energy for gardening and home remodeling. Wife is an HGTV fan. 6. Greater respect at work and better chances for promotion. 7. Live long enough to take my company's pension for every nickle I can!:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teh ericka 1 Posted August 13, 2010 (edited) Hell yeah to the sex! I wanna be able to get in some interesting positions :thumbup: ride horses again! being able to "go for a run." a real run. go to a theme park without worrying about fitting in the seats go dancing, swimming, biking without feeling self conscious never ever again be called a "bbw" as far as clothing goes... all I know is, I'm going to have to get a LOT pickier! I'm a total fatshionista as it is so I'll buy anything that looks cute right now, but there are so many more options for straight sizes so I'm going to have to reign that in for sure. After a little fun of course. Edited August 13, 2010 by teh ericka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Globetrotter 1,340 Posted August 13, 2010 I want to ... 1. Dance. Tango, Paso Doble, swing, lindy hop, cha cha, merengue, waltz, ballet, belly, indian temple. I want to move with energy and not be slowed down by sweating chafing fat, a thumping heart, and exhaustion after a few minutes. 2. When I do dance, I want to really dance with a partner, feel their body against mine. 3. The sex!! 4. Walk into a room and feel totally confident and assured in myself.

jamey 1 Posted August 13, 2010 I am going to go back and take riding lessons and then buy a horse. I rode Western as a girl, but always wanted to ride english and do dressage and jumping. I'm over half at there and have already found the stable I am going to use. I am already living "my life" again and every day gets better. Oh yeah, and of course the sex!

I want to move with energy and not be slowed down by sweating chafing fat, a thumping heart, and exhaustion after a few minutes. OMG, yes! I'm signing up for ballet, modern dance, and jazz this fall. I tried ballet in the spring, but the barefoot jumps were hard for me because of my weight - I was afraid of damaging my feet. It should be way easier once I'm down even just 10 pounds! I'd like to try Latin dance in the spring, if my boyfriend's up for it. I also wanna get my 5K time down to under 30 mins...no matter how much I've trained, I've NEVER managed to run a 5K in under 30 minutes, and I blame the extra weight I've had to haul. I'm sure I'll be way faster once I'm 50 pounds down! I'm tired of having my final results reflect my weight, and not my hard work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want to move with energy and not be slowed down by sweating chafing fat, a thumping heart, and exhaustion after a few minutes. I take ball room dance classes and we do most of those dances. I am so glad I lost all my weight because that was the first thing I noticed. There are no fat people in the classes, and no fat people going to any of the dances either. Dancing has opened up a whole new world for me. It's been one of the best rewards for losing all my weight! I LOVE dancing and I dance at least 3 times a week these days:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
