LilAngel 0 Posted September 21, 2005 I second so many of these already written (especially the crossing leg thing), and here's another for me... -Finally be on stage without wondering if everyone was thinking such a "fatty" should just go sit down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aneffie53 0 Posted September 21, 2005 Things I want to be able to do: 1. Accept invitations from old friends (if I'd like to go) and not worry about my size first. 2. Get in a hot tub or pool during the day light hours. 3. Feeling comfortable in a regular seat when I fly. 4. Kayaking 5. Getting out of bed without hurting 6. Not needing my CPap machine (for Apnea) at night. 7. Not believing my weight is causing every problem that I have. 8. Wearing "normal" clothes. 9. Camping/Hiking trips in the mountains. 10. Thinking about the adventure first, not my lack of stamina. 11. Boob job, so that I'm not flat like I was when I was thin. 12. Being able to shop for things I like, not things that fit. 12. Growing old with my children, grandchildren, great grand children (hopefully). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pianoman 0 Posted September 21, 2005 Things I am looking forward to... Cutting my toenails easily. Comfortably sitting in a "cattle class" flight. Wearing a suit, and looking GOOD in it. Receive a compliment on my appearance that isn't along the lines of "You have really blue eyes" Go to a fashionable clothes shop an buy clothes in sizes WAY below their largest size. Regain the confidence (and maybe cockyness) that I used to have when I was slim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CandySmooch 0 Posted September 22, 2005 These are in no particular order - just as I think of them. 1. Horseback riding 2. Fit comfortably in seats at some rocking Music Concerts 3. Have my fiance' carry me over the threshold or pick me up period or sit in his lap! 4. Not break out in a sweat from doing minor activities where no one else is sweating. 5. Get out of my low-ridin 35th Anniversary Edition Camaro easier. 6. To be comfortable completely and openly naked and lights blaring with my fiancee' instead of always trying to move an arm this way or a leg that way to try to look better and cover up my stomach or thighs etc. 7. To have smaller fingers to show off jewelry. (I got chubby man hands) 8. To be more comfortable when trying to shave in the bathtub. 9. To get a sexy tattoo right on my ass! 10. To Get my belly button pierced. 11. To look decent in a bathing suit that isn't a swimdress. 12. To be able to balance in sexy stillettos without breakin an ankle instead of wearing chunked platforms. 13. To buy cute belts and have the option of tucking in my shirt! 14. The look on everyone's faces at my 10 year high school reunion. 15. Being able to see ALL the way down south without a mirror. 16. To have seatbelts fit better. 17. To feel comfortable on a hot air balloon ride. 18. To shop for even cuter styles I can't wear now ie sleeveless etc. 19. To have more confidence in my body. 20. TO NEVER EVER HEAR SOMEONE SAY AGAIN - OH BUT YOU HAVE SUCH A PRETTY FACE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
