What NSV you hope to achieve?

I would have to say i am more focus on a size rather than a number on a scale. I would love to be able to walk in wet seal, body shop, charlotte russe, rue 21 etc and buy things other thanjewelry...the shoes dont even fit me half the time. I am 5'4" 273 btw

Thats awesome...i was in line at the state fair and watched a lady struggle to fit in a ride then finally they ask her to get off...it was so embarrasing so to save myself the humilation i got out of the line...cant wait until i can nit have to worry about those things

I have a cute little black dress that I want to wear again. Actually have two. One will be the medium rollodex size of clothes of my closet, and the other is in the small.

Can't wAit to not have my thighs rub....

When I can go to Macy's and wear the cute stylish clothes.

YES!!!!!! No thigh rubbing! (Maybe a pair of jeans could last more than 6 months?) NEED to do a zip line from the top of Gunstock mountain....and horse back riding without feeling bad for the horse!

So agree on better sex lol

Diamondeyed...... you said it all!!!!!

I am SO looking forward to having more energy...more mobility(without pain)...not feeling 'invisible' to strangers out in the world...being able to buy clothes in any store I choose(and to actually LIKE the clothes I buy, instead of feeling like it's all I could get.)...feeling a boost in confidence...and generally just feeling comfortable in my own skin! Even if it is saggy and wrinkly by the time I get there. :P
