Does anyone have dreams they wanted to accomplish after weight loss?



Recommended Posts

I want to have a Spanx bonfire and burn every piece of Shapewear I own. Also it would be nice to sit indian style in a airplane seat. I've seen grown adult women do this and looked on in amazement. lol. Lastly, I'd like to particpate in a race and not have partipants and bystanders alike yell YOU GO GIRL as i pass by. Yes, America larger people run races.

I have so many things! When I think about all the possibilities that this procedure can open up for me I can't stop smiling! The biggest one though is to be able to conceive a child. My husband and I have tried for so long and my doctors seem to think that my weight contributes to the problem conceiving. I can start trying to conceive 2 years post op and the thought that our dreams might finally come true is amazing! I've just started on my journey so it will be a while before this happens, but the possibilities are endless!

I love to travel and take lots of beautiful pics when I'm on a trip. I can't wait until I feel confident enough to actually BE in the pictures again.

I also think that hiking is going to be alot more fun without the extra 90 lbs to carry up the hill!

I've always wanted to volunteer for Search & Rescue in my county. I live in a heavily active, 4 season community. There are people lost in the snow every winter, out in the desert every summer, hiking trails, River rescues..... Every November they out a news article out seeking volunteers, every November I say "next year is the year" I am going to do it!

Lots of stuff but the first few that come to mind are having more energy to play with my daughter, the ability to cross my legs, buying clothes off the racks and not from plus size stores, being in photos... EEEEK!!! I can't wait!

I'm so glad you mentioned crossing your legs! I thought I was the only one that thought about stuff like that. Lol I always felt silly for thinking it! ????

I want to fall in love again. Maybe get married again someday. I want to wear clothes that I like, not a size 2x. I would love to ride rides at an amusement park again or go to Water World. I want to wear high heels and boots that fit over my fat calf. I want this "food monkey" off of my back! I want to conquer my shyness and get more confident about myself. And just think how much money we're going to save by not being fat anymore! Being skinny is not as expensive as being fat. :D

I want to run a 5K.

Also, I want to go up the Great Wall. I visited several years ago and I knew even if I made it up all the stairs, I'd never get back down again without help.

This one isnt a dream, but I'm really looking forward to crossing my arms without my boobs getting in the way.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
