What do hope for in life banned?

[myturn2bhappy 0]

I hope that I'm able to be healthy ever after or at least for a long, long, long time.

I hope that my 5 year daughter never struggles with her weight as I hope to be a great role model.

I hope that I feel sexy again. It's been awhile:blush:. I hope that confidence makes life with hubbie even better than it is.

I hope that I get to shop in a regular store for clothes!! Adios Lane Byrant, I don't want to need you anymore!

I hope for:

- A hot husband!

- The ability to get pregnant - so long Polycystic Ovaries!

- Not to die of a heart attack at 40 like both my parents!

- To feel sexy and confident and for my weight not to be the BIGGEST thing about me, the preceeds all other things and defines me to everyone (including myself). I want to be the "pretty loud girl" rather than the "fat loud girl" or even just the "loud girl" would do me fine!

- I want to RUN!!!!!!!

Ling- I want to run too. Though I was just diagnoised with arthritis in my right knee. I don't know that I'll ever run comfortably.

- being comfortable in my own skin

- gaining confidence in myself back

- not always feeling self conscious

- feeling like I "belong" when hanging out with skinny friends

- not grunting when getting up off the floor

- being attractive to my husband and actually wanting to have sex without hiding under the covers

- shopping for clothes - wearing something I like and not b/c it covers up my fat

- looking in the mirror and being proud instead of disgusted

- not sweating all the time

- crossing my legs

- happiness
