I go to a lot of college sporting events and I am very excited to not be afraid I will collapse from a heart attack having to go up the stairs.

not be afraid I can't fit in a booth at a restaurant.

sleep more comfortably

exercise more comfortably

I can't wait to do a 5k! I have never liked running, but I think the skinny me can get used to it! I also can't wait to go on amusement park rides again...I love roller coasters! I can't wait to go clothes shopping and not have to go to the fat section. The number one thing...I can't wait until I don't have to lug these huge boobs around everywhere...Sure they will be deflated, but I am sure a cute bra in a C cup will make me not mind so much!

Now that I've lost the weight I try not to take for granted the following things:

• not being embarrased to go to social events
  
• not feeling feeling ashamed to be my son's mom at school functions
  
• not being out of breath from rolling over in bed or going to the bathroom at night
  
• to not be limping around and having to ice my feet after a long day at work
  
• not being miserable from doing simple things like grocery shopping
  
• not being uncomfortable sitting on the couch from the back fat rolls (lol)
  
• being able to get on the floor with my puppy and taking him for walks
  

I could go on and on. I do try to remind myself of these simple things often so that I don't take for granted how far I've come...don't ever want to go back!!

I can't wait to go shopping in a normal size store and not plus size anymore!!!!!

I'm looking forward to.....

Being able to cross my legs.

Being able to walk in to any store and buy some pants off the rack.

To not being a disappointment to my 6y/o daughter who cried when she was told she looks like her momma, simply because her mom is fat.

To being able to ride any ride I so choose at a theme park/fair/carnival.

To being comfortable in my own skin and not feel as if others are judging me because of my size.

To holding my head up with pride when I put on a bathing suit in front of people.

To being able to see my girl parts without lifting my tummy and looking in a mirror.

To having a good sex life (don't get me wrong it's alright but it could and would be a whole heck of a lot better if there was less of me)

(the list goes on...I don't think you REALLY want me to continue, lol)

Go to the amusement parks and ride rides again

Shop at normal clothes stores not plus size

Be able to sit in a booth st a restaurant

Have skinny sex sounds funny but so true

And most importantly have a baby

I want to be healthy and fabulously beautiful for my new husband and future children! Its going to be awesome and everyone should be so proud of themselves for taking charge of their lives, health and not just sitting there hoping that one day it will happen. Bravo!

Now that's more than amazing! Great job.

I cant wait to shop at normal stores. No more feeling pathetic when I go somewhere that doesnt have my size. I cant wait to take my dog for a walk with out feeling like I am going to have a heart attack. I cant wait to be able to buckle the car seatbelt (Right now I just put it around the e-brake) I also cant wait to finally be healthy and active again.

Wow... This thread has me in tears. It's just amazing at the little things people can miss out on that means so much. Sometimes I forget what I'm incapable of doing or not being able to do easily because I've been over weight my entire life. To feel that change will be a whole new world to me. It leaves me speechless...

Shop at normal clothes stores not plus size
