What I'm looking forward to post op

I was going to title this 'Problems of a fat girl' but instead of focusing on what I don't like about being heavy I decided to look forward to the things that excite me post op :) Buying 'cheap clothes' at the Ten Dollar Mall, I can get a whole new wardrobe for a hundred bucks :). Fitting between cars in a parking lot, is this just me? Standing proud next to my children in photos, taking full body photos for that matter :) Wearing a bikini, and not just wearing it ROCKING IT!!! Meeting people for the first time as a thin person, they may never know weight was an issue for me. Throwing out my baby powder (for the chaffing) Saving my knees from inevitable replacement. Chairs and toilet seats will stop 'shrinking' on me :P Single digit clothing size. Bike riding with my daughters and hubby. I'm sure there are at least a dozen other things but this is all I can think of right now. If you've had your surgery what are you enjoying? If you are getting ready to have your surgery what are you looking forward to?

Thank you so much! You have just inspired me to write a blog for myself about things I am looking forward to! What a great idea to have a list of things that in a year I can check of and say "I did that!" You go Jen! I know your going to reach every one of these goals!!! :)
