What's one thing you hope to enjoy after you've lost the weight?

Live not far from some beautiful state parks and the Appalachian Trail. So I hope to do some longer hikes and I'd love to try kayaking.

That's a great goal :-) I want to buy clothes from regular stores , and I am so looking fwd to going places and not being the biggest person there :)

I've gotten below my goal weight. The one thing I always wanted was to NOT be the fattest person at work. The other goal I haven't had a chance to try out is flying - I've never flown and been able to put the tray table all the way down. Looking forward to that. :rolleyes:

Besides buying clothes in a store of my choice I have always wanted to try running. Have set my sight on running a 5 k next year. Here's to making it happen!

Fit in an airplane seat. I love to travel and being 5'9" I know I'll never be truly comfortable in coach but actually fitting between the armrests would be awesome.

I've still got a long way to go but have already knocked a few things off my list. Kayaking is awesome! So much fun!

I want to be able to go kayaking! Also, I want to be in pictures with my family - I have avoided being in pictures for years because of my weight.

I'm looking forward to sewing for myself again. And since my husband is losing weight, I'll sew for him, too!

These are all great answers/ideas. Another thing I look forward to is no longer being the fattest member of my family. ( my adult kids live with us.)

That probably sounded terrible . I should add that I'm 5'1" and my grown sons are built like fullbacks, but I've weighed more than them for years.

I'm looking forward to wearing a sleeveless shirt in public and riding a roller coaster without having a mini panic attack while waiting in line while contemplating if I'll fit into the seat or not.

I'm think I'm going to start getting in more pictures. Right now, I always volunteer to take them (so I won't have to look at myself in one).

And I can't wait for the day that I can be at a pool, or beach and not be so self conscious. What a great feeling that must be!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
