I am looking forward to a great summer full of activites I haven't enjoyed in years. Amusement parks, hiking, kayaking, maybe even zip-linning! I can't wait to just enjoy being outside and LIVING!

I want to be active with my kids. enjoy a lot of outdoors activities with them. hiking, skating, bike riding, horse riding, kayaking running and so much more. besides being healthy that's the main purpose for the surgery so I can enjoy more activities with my kids by doing the thing I have never been able to up to now.

I can't wait until this summer. My son and I have always played catch, but that's about all I could handle. This summer...I'll be running around chasing him, playing tag, helping him run routes for football, motivate him to train for football by running with him, and just being free to do as I please. No more 300lb. mom to be embarrassed about. I also really want to go to the indoor trampoline park. I've always been afraid my fat a** would tear through the trampoline. This summer...trampoline dodge ball IT'S ON! Laser tag..yeah buddy, it's going to be a fun summer :)

I've always wanted a Mini Cooper. BUT, I can't be a fatty and drive a tiny car! Even though there is room, it's the whole concept of it all. I want to get out of a Mini, and not twine everyone is staring at the girl who managed to shove herself inside. Lolol

I know it's silly! But that's so.etching I'll look forward to.

I did this a few weeks ago http://www.caveworld.co.nz which is not something I would have imaging doing before WLS. We also had a recent family holiday to the Gold Coast in Australia and I did all the theme park roller coasters and rides. Last year, I had my young niece for the day and we took her to an indoor wall climbing place and I joined I too and climed several metres! Photo attached. All of these activities were ones I would not have even contemplated two years ago. It is summer here now, and while we have had the boat out it has not been warm enough yet for me to Water ski or knee board or biscuit, but I will be doing it before summer is over!

When I get to my goal, I plan to start taking private pilot lessons. Learning to fly is something I've always wanted to do!

I'll likely wait until I'm totally off diabetes meds and get another sleep study though so I can go off my CPAP. I Would rather not have to deal with the increased FAA scrutiny while I still have a diagnosis of Apnea and Diabetes.

I live very near the beach and every summer I would take my kids to the beach several times a week. I would usually plant myself in a chair in my bathing suit (which could also be a full length dress it covered so much) and almost not move at all until it was time to leave for fear of drawing attention to myself. Well this summer I am looking forward to having a normal bathing suit that shows off some skin and not be embarassed to walk around and possibly draw a little attention.

I can't wait for this summer! I know I will only be a few months in...but I am looking forward to going to a Colorado Rockies game and not feeling squished in the seat. Being on an airplane and not feeling like I have to cross my arms and squeeze my legs together the entire flight. Tank Tops!! Shorts!! Buying clothes somewhere other than Old Navy and Lane Bryant!

Can't wait to ski again (hopefully I haven't completely ruined my knees and hips). I want to take my 8 year old to CO skiing for his 10th birthday (2 years from now). And I can't wait to take my 15 year old to Great Britain for his high school graduation (3 years from now). I'm very, very pear shaped. I'm 45. I won't be walking at 60 if I don't get this done. So many things I've missed out on. Can't wait to get this show on the road!!!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
