2) Getting riding boots over my enormous calves

3) Ride amusement park rides with my daughter

4) Looking good in a riding outfit

5) Regaining flexibility

6) Not injuring myself so easily

7) Actually enjoying physical exertion (I think this is a myth)

8) Being attractive / joining the "hottie" club

9) Actually wanting to move and do things (see #7)

10) My mother's reaction to the new me.

To bea ble to go to the closet and know whatever I pick will look good and no more; I got to make sure that this is covered and that is not showing. I have not worn shorts or tanktops in ages.

Also my 3 girls will be proud of me and they will have a happy mom with a selfesteem through the roof.

Where do I start????

1. Having energy to play with my kids again. I am so tired to just existing, I want to live again!!

2. Being able to cross my legs again! Enough said!

3. Being able to fit into my clothes again. I am tired of wearing my DH gym pants and T-shirts bc they are big enough for me! I want to feel like a woman again!!!

4. Living with good health, and teaching my kids good eating habits!

Just to be the me I have inside of myself!!!

1. I want to live a long and happy life for my children. My children mean the world to me and I can't imagine leaving them earlier than I am supposed to due to this baggage I have carried around for a lifetime.

2. I want to feel and be healthy. My doctors always say that my number, points etc. are all perfect but I know personally, that I don't feel perfect.

3. I want to be more like the woman my husband married. When we dated I was about 40 lbs less than what I am now. I was a lot more fun to be with, a lot more sure of myself. Now I never want to hang out with our group of friends because I am totally ashamed of how I look.

4. I want to be able to get dressed up for a special occasion without ending up in tears. I also want to be able to put pantyhose on without ending up all sweaty and out of breath.

5. I want to be able to borrow clothes.

6. I want to be able to shop at any store.

7. I want to sleep without my arms falling asleep.

8. I want to be able to walk on my feet without giving them time to adjust to the weight they are about to carry all day.

9. I want to be able to wear shorts and sleeveless shirts without the side effects of chub rub.

10. I want to stop sweating all the time.

11. I want to stop trying to hide lumps and bumps.

12. I want my boobs to get smaller so that my back stops hurting.

13. I would like to be invited to a pool party without that sudden fear.

14. I would like to chase after my children and enjoy it.

16. I would like to buy a halloween cosume that will fit me.

17. I would like to fall in that catagory as one size fits all.

18. I want to look tidy, not messy.

19. I want to stop fearing the airplane seat.

20. I would like to jog.

22. I would like to wear boots that go up to my knee. They have never fit my calf before.

24. I would like to stop getting dressed in the closet when my husband is in the room. ( this one should be #3)

25. I would like to take my clothes off and not have an impression of them still an hour later.

I'm sure there are hundreds of other wishes but these have been on my mind most this year.

Words cannot explain how much I want this all to happen.

All of the above....except that I have to buy tall size clothes so it's easier to order them that to try to find them in stores.

Plus, I want to play basketball with my grandkids (I've asked for a hoop for mother's day) and I want to be able to set on the ground and work with my plants, and then be able to GET UP AGAIN!

Besides the obvious health reasons....I want my little boy to be able to put his little arms all the way around me when he hugs me! Then, I want to go horseback riding without breaking the horses back!!
