Things I can't wait for Post-OP.

Besides getting healthy, what other things are you looking forward to Post-Op?

Here are a few of mine:

1) fit behind my steering wheel comfortably.

2) not getting choked out by the seat belt.

3) fit into a booth when we go out to a restaurant

4) not wear my food.

5) skinny dip

6) climb the stairs at work rather then elevator.

7) fit into 98% of my clothes.

8) cross my legs

9) have a lap

10) skinny dip.

cheese off the pizza.. Lol

Sit in a booth lol. I cant wait and then eat 2 bites instead of everyones left overs after my meal and then desert lol. Houlahans misses me.

For people to stop asking me when my baby is due. I'm NOT pregnant people, I'm just fat!!!

No more plus size stores.

Sexy panties.

To NOT always be the fattest chick in the room.

To get up from my chair at a restaurant and go to the ladies room without having to plot out my path before I start walking.

To sit comfortably in ANY chair.

To be able to say I've lost 100 pounds!

I'm only 5 days post-op, but since I lost 44 pounds on the 3-month supervised diet, I noticed that I had to move the seat forward in my husband's car. He's only a half inch taller than me & weighs about 165. In the past I always had to move the seat back when I went to drive his car. My car is in the shop getting all of the "parking lot dings" fixed while he's off work.

Love your list!! Go kick some weight loss arse!!

I can't wait to/for:

1) not being afraid to garden in my front yard( bending over to pull those weeds in my shorts surely would freak out the neighbors, dog - walkers and passers-by

2)soak in the tub and be fully submerged

3)get up from sitting on the floor without the aide of nearby furniture

I just realized that there is not enough room here to complete my list!

Good luck to us all!!

1. for my husband to wrap his arms completely comfortably around me

2. to not have to scout where I fit to sit on the train (i commute on public transportation to work)

3. shop in the regular sized section

4. for my son not to point at overweight women and call them "mama" (he's 2. it's happened a few times)

5. for my ankles to roll when I walk so I don't look like frankenstein when I walk.

6. cross my legs

7. fit in the tub with my husband

8. have a lap

9. to wear dresses

10. not sweat so much just by WALKING

11. to have people move out of the way when I'm walking. When i used to be thin, people used to move out of my way. Now that i take up a good portion of an aisle it seems i'm invisible.

12. For my joints not to hurt

13. To be able to fit into clothes from nice stores/boutiques

14. wear heels again. SO looking forward to this.

15.. To not be scared to try crossfit

16. indulge in Victoria's secret clothing/lingerie

Congratulations to your wife! And to you too on enjoying the sight of the heels and going through the process. My husband is going to see how I do post op and might consider the sleeve
