Ok... I live in Texas so I am looking forward to being out in the 100 degree heat without having a heat stroke....I have way too much insulation lol I used to be fine in the heat when I was younger...that means biking hiking swimming and taking my nephew to the zoo! I can't do that now for several reasons...

I didn't make a list of ten bc I think I have a thousand things I am looking forward to :D

Here's my list............

1. Sit on an airplane - and trying to hide the fact by putting a jacket on my lap - so the flight attendant won't realize that the seatbelt isn't buckled.

2. Go play poker at various spots - I won't show myself at some of these places since, the last time they saw me, I was 80 lbs less.

3 Ride the zipline on Fremont Street in Las Vegas - weight limit is 230....I have a ways to go.

4. Not have to jiggle the booth away from me to make it so I can breathe!

5. Not having to go through my clothes every morning - struggling to find something that fits.

6. Driving by the grocery store - without thinking about stopping to get a "goodie" for the night.

7. Not having to maneuver into my truck so much - in order to "get comfortable."

8. Riding a bicycle - I would just be so embarrassed right now.

9. Going to the gym regularly - without being embarrassed.

10. And the biggest thing - breaking the cycle that was set by my Mother, my Grandmother, my Great Grandmother - I refuse to be the next generation of overweight women in my family. The buck stops here!

This is my favorite thread! I feel exactly the same way on just about everything you all listed. Here's my list:

  1. To feel attractive and to fall in love again (hopefully for good this time!) I avoid men like the plague because I can't imagine anyone falling in love with me looking like this.

  2. Get rid of ALL of my fat clothes!

  3. To wear my jewelry

  4. To walk with confidence

  5. To wear sun dresses and spaghetti strap tops!

  6. I want to be social and outgoing again

  7. To ride a motorcycle again

  8. I want to "turn heads" for the right reasons, not because I'm fat

  9. To prove my family wrong, that getting the VS is the right thing for me to do

  10. And last but not least, to make my son proud of me

      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.
