What will you (or did you) most look forward to in your life after WLS?

I can't wait to go biking with my partners and not feeling like I'm holding them back to riding at my slow pace. I can't wait to not be a plus size. I can't wait to actually want to buy new clothes instead of making due with the same few items because I hate shopping so much. I can't wait to walk with my kids and not be the one out of breath. To work in my garden and actually get things planted and weeded and not feel like I'm going to die when I'm done.

I want to go to the amusement park and not sit on the bench because I'm afraid of getting stuck in the rides. I want to go to a concert and dance and not care if people look at me because I won't be the fat girl that everyone's looking at in disgust. I want to go out with my partners and not have people wonder what they see in me.

I want to live instead of committing slow suicide by food.
