Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Great thread! I'd like to do so many of the things listed here...go on amusement rides, feel comfortable in intimate moments with my DH, shop for normal clothes in a normal store.

Yet, lets not forget that the journey is as important as the destination. We learn valuable lessons along the way about ourselves (including our eating habits and motivations...or demons) and...so while it's nice to think about what we'd like to do "when"... I encourage everyone to appreciate the successes so far and what you've learned about yourself along the way too.

I was thinking about this and have actually thought about this most of my like. Like hmmm what will i do once i loose the weight, where will i go to show off..lol.. etc.. If i could have my own way. I would throw a fashion party, and invite everyone that has ever called me fat in life, treated me bad, denied me a promotion, those that did not want to be my friend...(when i was younger), my x-boyfriends, and x husband..Oh not to forget my son's father...lol.. and i would do a Tyra Banks and walk down a runway in diffrent outfits i mean dressed to kill... prehaps im feeling this way because there is a ANTM marathon on now... but I want them all to C-ME-NOW (then) I can just hear it now omg u look soo good.. how did u do it? And the guys saying so r u seeing anyone... can i get your number to call u later... uhhhh nope..lol.. I want to be able to go into any store and pick up a pair of shorts,mini skirt or jeans and know that it will fit. I want to be able to catch a clearance sale and only pay $3-$5 bucks for clothes vs $9.99-$19.99 being my clearance price because of my size.. I want to buy a pair of Guess jeans, and a pair of Girbaud jeans, and strut my stuff.

Uh well I have a list of ten things that getting the weight off will do for us. check my link: Get Banded Now provides Lap Band Bariatric Surgery, Weight Loss Surgery and Gastric Bypass Surgery

Oh and dress like a slut ? Pictures please!! JK

A couple of things that I would do after losing the weight would be to go on a roller coast with my kids. (Since they have a weight limit now of 200 lbs.) I would also like to buy clothes that are cute and have them actually fit right and comfortable. I would love to be able to walk, run and travel with my kids and family without having to make special arrangements for me on airplanes or being pushed around amuzement parks. THAT IS MY DREAM COME TRUE!!!!!

I look forward to getting really dressed up, going out for a night on the town, and having an awesome time knowing that I look great and feel confident and good about myself. Also, wearing a really cute bathing suit and looking amazing in it to the beach or Water park.:)

Simple things, like everyone here: Cross my legs while sitting; get down on the floor and be able to get up again without Herculean effort; walk around the block at a fairly rapid pace without feeling like my lungs are about to explode; feel the cold in my bones in the winter; be able to wear a swimsuit without feeling so self-conscious; get out of an armchair without finding that I'm "wearing" it...

...most of all, be the mother my kids can barely remember.

I want to know if you REALLY do get treated differently because you're fat.

I want to be able to play with my son and not worry he will get away from me.

I want to shop for clothes outside the plus size section.

I want to be the arm-candy my husband deserves!

and...I think I MIGHT want to try a mini-marathon.

      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.
