I Can't Wait Till....

  • Popular Post

Im starting a thread on things you cant wait to do/accomplish after surgery..

I can't wait...

  • for that moment where I don't have to use a beach towel after a shower!
  • till I can ride my bike with my daughter without my tire going flat the moment I hop on the bike!
  • to give my daughters a bath with out running out of breath!
  • till I can take my boyfriend out on a date to his favorite place Six Flags without being in fear that the security lock on the roller coaster wont fit me or I wont fit in the seat period!
  • till I can play hide n seek with my daughter and be able to run without feeling like I'm about to collapse!
  • till food is no longer something I seek for comfort yet only for necesity because my body needs nutrients not because my emotions need to be fed!

Go to a movie or on a plane without worrying I'm spilling over and rubbing elbows with the stranger next to me. Have a guy flirt with me and not think there must be something wrong with him or that he's just messing with the fat girl. NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN HEAR 'but you have such a pretty face....if you'd only lose....' OY.

I can't wait to...

Wear boots that go over calves

Fit in a booth without pushing back table

Wear shoes that are not "wides"

Not need seat belt extender on flight

Buy clothes in regular department

Be able to cross my legs

I'm 5 months out since surgery and I'm accomplishing these now. What I want to accomplish is to come off disability once and for all and to graduate from college. To fit into a size 12 jeans or smaller. And to be able to have another baby.

I can't wait until I can comfortably wear a belt, high heels, and skirts.

I've read this thread a lot so here. Is my wish list:

- sit on the floor with my daughter and play instead of her saying, daddy and I will play on the floor you sit on the bed mommy.

- ride on a roller coaster with my daughter. 2 amusement parks and never a ride with her.

- wear jeans (haven't worn jeans in almost 3 years)

- care about myself and how I look. I always wear sweats and slippers bc I'm so fat I just don't care.

- run a mile

- do a marathon

- teach my daughter proper eatin habits.

- shop in a normal store!!

- share clothes with someone, anyone!

Not to mention everything everyone else said too!!

I've already posted earlier but I thought of another one!!

- be able to walk in a bathroom stall without having to do moves over the toilet to get the door shut/open lol...
