I've been thinking alot about the things I want to do with my kids after I have my surgery. I want to ski, hike, teach my girls ballet and softball, and play basketball with my boys. What are some of your favorite things to do with your kids that you couldn't do before surgery?

I have too! I want to be able to ride a bike, play soccer, go camping and hiking, walk the entire theme park, walk with them wo getting breathless, volunteer for field trips...The list is endless but most importantly than all of the above, I want to live a long healthy life to see them grow, guide them, educate them and participate in all of the wonderful things life give us.

I want to go in the beach water & play instead of watching cuz I feel everyone is looking at me & my fat ass.

My kids are grown. Now is the time when I can stop being a parent who tells them what to do and be a friend who enjoys their company and can keep up with them. And I want to be healthy and active to enjoy my grandchildren when they come along. :-)

I want to be there for my grandkids also. Unfortunately, cancer and diabetes took our mothers away from us so our kids have not had the joy of having a grandmother's love. I'm looking forward to it even though it's a long ways away. :-)

I taught my kids bad eating habits. Mainly insane portion size. I really regret it.
