There are so many things I'm looking forward to:

Finally losing the weight for good

Getting off my blood pressure meds

Getting off my C Pap machine

Having less pain in my knees

Being able to run and keep up with my kiddos

Not sweating so much

I'm so excited about this journey. When I went to my pre op appt yesterday I was a little nervous b/c well doctors make me nervous. But I left there feeling great. The staff is so nice and they are very, very excited for all their bariatric patients. They had nothing but good things to say and I just felt completely at ease. Even my surgeon spent a good amount of time with me answered all my questions completely and honestly and he has a great sense of humor. I hate stuffy doctors. I'd rather have someone that will laugh with me.

I'm so ready to go!!

I was just hanging up clothes and thought of this thread... I look forward to not having to worry about which hangers I grab. I currently need to use the ones with the cut out area down each side cuz my shirts r to big that if I don't use that kind they just slip right off. Lol. Stupid I know but I just thought of it along with many other things I look forward to.

I'm looking forward to...

+ Being able to exercise for longer periods of time

+ Walking up 3 flights of stairs without being out of breath

+ Not feeling self contious about my body

+ Wearing smaller sized clothes

+ Being able to go on rides at amusement parks

+ Feeling more comfortable being intimant with my boyfriend

+ Not feeling embarrassed to wear a bathing suite

+ Being all around healthy

I am looking forward to getting back into modeling business.

older post but i resurrected it because I thought of another one this morning while driving to work jamming the radio.

I can't wait to be able to "drop it like it's hot" while dancing without fear or not being able to pick myself back up!!!!hahaha!!!

The thought came to me as I listened to "single ladies" by beyonce.

ahhhhhh yes, the ease of dancing without excess weight!

This is a good one. I also think about dancing again.....WITHOUT breathing hard and sweating everywhere!!
