What are you looking forward to after losing weight?

Fitting more comfortably in an airplane seat!

No sweating my butt off from carrying around this extra weight.

I'm always a big sweaty mess. I hope that changes when I lose weight!

Yep, that's my thought too!

Smaller LESS EXPENSIVE bras.

Not being so hot and winded all the time.

Most importantly, being off my meds and better health.

Being able to buy clothes from regular stores, instead of ordering things online, which always end up being too big or too small.

I colored my hair yesterday, and I realized that next year at this time, I will be able to use the plastic gloves that come with the kit! Right now they always tear when I put them on because they are so small.

Oh my goodness, yes on the bras! If men love big boobs so much, we should have our larger bras subsidized IMO. Ha!

Bras would be nice for me too!!!! I carry my weight in my back and arms like a mini line backer but I don't have big boobs so who carries a 40 B?? And btw, what is going to happen to my boobs after all the weight loss? I will have to curl them up and put them in my bra that I can finally buy at victoria secret! LOL

My back, Oh Lord, how I hope my back hurts less as I lose weight.

Less meds, better health, I don't want to be a walking stroke any longer.

I hope my feet hurt less. Although, some of that if from neuropathy and I realize it can't be reversed.

Putting my wedding ring back on.

This is really vain and my reasons for the sleeve are not really out of vanity but more medical but it will be nice not be embarrassed about being in family pictures. Last Christmas photos I looked like a blueberry, so round and blue/purple clothes. lol

Yes! And I notice that I always hide behind other people in pictures. I'd like to not have to feel like I need to do that.

Being able to take my son to an amusement park and being able to actually go on the rides with him instead of waiting for him to get off them. He is only 7 and is too big for little kid rides and needs a seat partner for the adult rides.

All the reasons listed here and more. I was banded in 2009 and it worked remarkably well for me. I lost all the excess weight very fast and felt fantastic. No one could believe I formally obese. My band failed and I am starting to gain weight now. I'm having the band remove and getting the sleeve. I've been obese before, and never want to go back to that place.

How about the blood pressure cuff? Anyone else have that problem? It is embarrassing. And I can't use the home blood pressure cuff at all.
