Mine are:

No thigh rash friction burn from walking when I wear a skirt

Not crying in disbelief every time I see a photo of myself

Bumping into my ex and seeing his reaction when I look and feel fantastic

Not avoiding my friends in case they notice I've put on weight

Feeling sexy and not turning my boyfriend's advances away because I'm ashamed of my body

Walking into a room with a smile on my face, and not wanting to hide under a table

Not being so crazy jealous and bitter about anyone who isn't overweight

Besides being healthy of course... I would like to ride my Harley and not feel like a fat slob.

I joke with my daughter, that my number one thing I want to buy is a skinny girl car. lol I probably won't but she is 15 and it makes her so mad, when I talk about me buy a little sports car.

Ok for things I want to do, and buy, that list could get long, but here it goes.

I want to take my daughter to a amusement park,and ride the roller coasters with her.

I want to join our adult soccer, or soft league here in town, as I loved playing when I was teenager.

I'm going to join a tennis league, in a town near by, and maybe even look for a man. lol I'm not sure about the last part of that, I may buy me a yorkie puppy instead. lol

I'm moving back to Florida, and going to the beach every weekend.

I'm going to go get a family portrait done with my daughter, because now I hate getting my picture taken and will not go to a photographer.

Well that is just a few I can think of , but like I said there are many more.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
