Things Im Looking Forward To:

Am I crazy for saying this? Maybe, but I'm SO looking forward to working out and walking and going for jogs etc. I loved gym class as a kid and love going on walks. It's calming for me, just wish I could do it now without running out of breath and such

    I wanna have sex standing up. Need 14 more pounds maybe I can do it then.

  • Wow, girl, you took the words right out of my mouth! I hate being "the fat girl" with all my skinny gf's. I avoid many social situations, so that I don't feel people are laughing at me. Did you all

  • Yes I did see that but she held it all together so proud of that anchor woman. She said what she had to with class. Worm I hope you hear something soon I'm rooting for you. I get major anxiety at work

I'm looking foward to it too. This time I know the weight will come off...That's so encouraging...

My surgery was 5/4/10. I looked forward to ding physical activities and being able to find clothes at normal stores. It was also nice too not worry about whether or not I would fit in a carnival ride

I haven't had my surgery yet, I'm waiting for insurance to approve it now! And then I might be switching doctors because I just moved across the state line into Wisconsin. It won't be for a few months but I'm lookin forward to big changes! Also theme park rides and not having to check or be nervous for whether or not I will be able to fit. It is very reassuring that I know the weight will come off and with following doctors orders it would stay off. I can't imagine myself thinner, so it's still processing mentally but it feels so great to finally begin my life as it should have been years ago!

I look forward to not being the fat friend and I'm looking forward to life and all that it holds for me since I've been avoiding life. Clothes is a big plus as well as working out and not being worried someone is laughing at me . People can and will be mean no matter what size but still it's how I feel .

Did you all see the news anchor who told off that jerk about his nasty "fat hate" email? Now that made me cry! She rocked her response!

I'm looking forward to working out too. I'm also looking forward to playing with my kids without getting tired so fast. I can't wait to walk into a room and not think people are talking about how big i am.... So much more things

Hey!

I'm at the very bottom of the state towards Lake Michigan, city of kenosha :) about 15 minutes out off Illinois

Planes... I'm so sick of getting an anxiety attack about them and being uncomfortable. The fat friend thing is old too. Hoping to get approved this week!!

Good luck worm!! I am calling insurance coordinator starting again tomorrow. I have a pre op appointment on Tuesday so if I don't hear anything tomorrow he will get an ear full in Tuesday

Yes I did see that but she held it all together so proud of that anchor woman. She said what she had to with class. Worm I hope you hear something soon I'm rooting for you. I get major anxiety at work when I do intakes with strangers going to malls movies dinner anything I am always thinking someone is laughing at me or watching me giggle by. It's hard I hope this ends . So this surgery is going to be my tool and ill be damned if I fail . I have hope and faith on my side to help.
