I'm tired of hearing awe but you have such a pretty face.., o_0 I hate that. I would like to buy clothes anywhere. I want to fly ( never been on a plane). I want to go to a club (I'm 30 never been clubbing and I'm single no kids). I want to go to an amusement park and get on all the rides!! :) last and most important, I want to have kids and be able to enjoy our lives and live a healthy long life :)

I can't wait to slow dance with my husband again! We are both on the heavy side and when we dance our bellys get in the way so we turn to the side lol!!

I also want my 6 year old son and 13 year old daughter to be able to put their arms all the way around me when they hug me!!

I cant wait to shop in VS for the first time EVER!!

I'm a Christian singer with two praise bands! I am confident in the gift that God has given me but i stand there worrying about what I look like! I can't wait to be able to lead people into worship without having my weight in my mind!

To... run, go hiking, not have anxiety about airplane seats, stop avoiding eye contact with people who knew me in my skinny days, ride a roller coaster, jump on the trampoline with my son, have ENERGY, and go to a gym without feeling like I don't belong. And yes - I too want to paint my toenails without feeling like its a major event to reach my feet.

And I forgot to say - go to the doctor without them telling me I'm overweight, stop taking my blood pressure medication, and not have my PCOS hormones balance out.

One thing I wanted was for my son to hug me and be able to touch his hands together (with me in the middle). We were in the grocery store a couple of weeks ago and he did it and even said "look mama." I forgot that was one thing I said before surgery that I wanted, so you reminded me. Thank you (and you brought tears to my eyes for two reasons: 1. reminding me of this small goal and 2. for all of the other things that everyone shared... I totally related to so many, but how beautiful it is to hear what others hearts desire - I wish you all success in this journey!). :)

So many of these are true for me. Riding the rides at amusement parks. Playing ball with my 3 sons. Having my husband carry me. Weighing less than my husband. I can't wait.

I cant wait to really not feel fat when people say that "you're not that big".

To be able to shop in stores that have something that I would really want to wear and not be forced to wear because my options are slim to none.

To be able to sit in a chair or rollercoaster sit and not worry about it digging into my thighs....or worry about if the seatbelt is going to make it all the way across me...

And just recently (since I just got off a flight), to not worry about someone sitting on a sit beside me on a flight and have them sitting on my hips..

I have many of the same wishes.

  • To ride amusement park rides with my kids
  • To do a walking tour somewhere that lasts all day and be able to do it
  • To take a plane ride without having to be a second seat for the rest of my a**
  • To go to the movie theater, a playhouse, or auditorium without worrying if I will fit in the seat
  • To attend Open House at my kids school without having to stand in the back because I can't fit in the desk.
  • To shop anywhere I want--not just "Specialty Size" Stores

* Get off BP meds!

* Stop worrying that I will end up with diabetes

* Clothes -- 'nuff said.

* Not be the fattest person in the room.

* Not always assume that people are thinking about how fat I am

* Have more energy

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
