What Are You Looking Forward To?

[Remodeling.Me 41]

Great lists, all! So much to look forward to!

[MJ's comingN2form 103]

I'm looking forward to:

Walking from my car to the jobsite without running out of breath

Climbing the stairs without aching knees

Strut my stuff in some nice jeans with a bad pair of heels

Able to get out the car without making sure everything is covered up and inside where it suppose to be

Dance, laugh and live longer!

2 weeks out now I cant wait to eat some raw oysters and have my 1st cocktail..(dont judge me..)

[jessfharris 70]

I WANT TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT THE scale AND NOT SHRUG OR CLOSE MY EYES OF EMBARRASEMENT

I WANT TO HAVE MY FIRST CHILD

I WANT TO FIT IN EVERY RESTAURANT BOOTH

I WANT TO BE CONSIDERED "NORMAL" AND NOT OBESE (horrible word by the way)

I WANT TO WEIGHT LESS THAN MY HUSBAND

I WANT TO MAKE LOVE TO MY HUSBAND COMFORTABLY

I WANT TO FIT IN MY HIGH SCHOOL JEANS

I WANT TO STOP BEING MADE FUN OFF BY RUDE PPL WHEN I EAT

I JUST WANT MY LIFE BACK !!!!!!!! I WANT MY OUTSIDE TO STAND OUT LIKE MY INNER BEAUTY !!!

[Remodeling.Me 41]

You guys are awesome!

Weighing less than my husband... now THAT's a big one that I didn't think about, Jess. We've been together 26 years & I weighed less than him for probably a week. Looking forward to that one.

I desperately want to walk and my thighs not rub together! I want to sit on an airplane and not be wedged into the seat. I want to shop for clothes and look in the mirror and NOT be depressed!

Wow territravel--with tears in my eyes I told my dad I wanted this surgery so that for once in my life, I want to be able to walk without my thighs rubbing together. Another thing I am looking forward to is people not to refer to me as "big Becky" when they are telling someone about me Even a close "skinny" friend does this, and it kills me.

Love all of the Above! Here are some of mine...

- play volleyball with my 12 year old daughter

- not need diabetes or high blood pressure medications! (been off since surgery)

- be able to go to Everest Base Camp! (I doubt I would go, but on my own terms, not because of my health...)

- continue my work in third world countries without worrying about my diabetes

Riding roller coaster again

Smiling more

Running

Being healthy

Shopping in the smaller sizes

Talking to boys and feeling confident

Traveling more

Getting my dream job

Dancing

Finally being the "hot" friend and not the "fat" friend

Going to Concerts

Going to Conventions (comic books, Sci-fi, Anime kind) To be able to dress up as the hot female character and not male character will be amazing !!!!!!!

Feeling sexy and beautiful ( I have always gotten the " You have a beautiful face, but you would be much prettier if you lost weight")

I want to sit in a normal camping chair without bending it so much I'm real close to the ground by bedtime

I want to participate at amusement parks NOT be the bag holder.

I want to run faster than others can walk and not look like I pooped myself.

To squat down without grunting or knees crackling

To do ONE pull up.

To not hide when I eat.

To make a clear distinction that love does not equal food

And to find new ways to Celebrate life besides with food

That's the short list.

We can do this Becky...Maybe we'll be so skinny they will call us chickenlegs...LOL!

Knee surgery!!! I've been walking with a slight limp for about 5 years now due to soft tissue damage in my right knee. Since I am self pay, I've refused to spring for he surgery because I knew that being dramatically overweight I would likely not heal well, or would re-injure. So, when I get to goal, I'm getting my knee fixed.

I have a (partial) meniscal tear in my right knee, and like you, I won't have surgery while carrying so much extra weight. It would totally defeat the purpose!

I have 3 granddaughters 13, 12,& 11....I have them for a week every summer. Next year I will be able to go to one of our favorite swimming & fishing places. Not only will I be able to make it down the hill but I' ll never have to worry about climbing back up!!!!! It's those little things that are sssoooo important! !
