not losing my breath when I go upstairs

losing my turkey neck (or extra chins)

feet no longer swelling in shoes

being able to cross my legs at the knee (if thats what you want to do)

getting out of Queen or 2x-3x pantyhose (people still wear those, right? ; ) )

not wearing old lady swimsuits (with the little skirt)

fitting in rides at the amusement park

my drivers license weight is closer to being true than ever before (lol)

I could do a cartwheel without fear of my arms snapping at the elbows

no more guilt trips at the doctor

I had to laugh - my driver license says 197 and even though I'm nearly 300 I refuse to up it ;) and the lady laughed at me last time. I said to her "can't I lie about this one thing" and she kept it.

LoL, when I went to the DMV last the lady asked me if anything had changed and I said yes, my address, then she looked at me funny and said, "aaaanything else?" and I thought it was weird but I said, "Um, nope," she just shook her head and printed it up, when I got to my car and went to look at the picture again, i finally realized what she was trying to get at, my license said I was 150lbs.... that's how much I weighed when I was 15.

I love your list! I think it is a great idea!!! I plan on making one now. I also work in law enforcement and look forward to looking better in my uniform. Plus being able to crawl, squat, and climb through crime scenes easier is a plus!!!

150 is my ultimate goal and I would like for once to go to a freakin class reunion. I haven't been to any because I was so ashamed of being heavy.

I also want to order a sexy corset and matching underthings to wear. They do not make corsets in my size, I have already checked!

I love this topic, I have my own bucket list as well. I will share some with you guys.

-Find knee high boots that actually fit around my legs.

- buy clothes because I like them not simply because they have my size.

- be comfortable in heels

- wear short shorts or tight jeans

- dress up for Halloween

- do my own pedicures

- have more energy

- fit through a turnstile

- bathe myself with ease

- more self esteem

I never realized how much I took these things for granted when I was younger and thinner.

      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.
