I'm not going to miss bumping into walls, worrying about fitting into chairs - especially airplane seats, having to shop at plus size stores and so much more! What about you?

What are you going to try as you get smaller? I want to try rock wall climbing!

I won't miss my 4 year old granddaughter asking me loudly in a crowded checkout line if I have a baby in my belly! Also I won't miss anymore high school reunions because I am embarrassed about my weight.

I will not miss the pain from the weight affecting my arthritis. I will not miss the increased pain from fibromyalgia. I will not miss feeling fat when I make love to my husband. I will not miss feeling uncomfortable in my clothes. I will not miss fear of running into someone I know. I will not miss feeling like I'll always be fat.

I also can't wait to have less pain from both the weight and Fibromyalgia!

I am gonna miss being able to float when swimming!

I pray that after surgery, I will still have a round booty! That my behind will look nicely! Lord, please let me look like Beyoncé in my clothes!

Be around my "cute" friends and not feel awful about myself.

Hahaha, my cute friends make me feel cuter! Obviously this is flawed logic but I don't even care.

To spin this, I'm going to talk about stuff I'm looking forward to:

- Halloween costume shopping

- stocking up on CHEAP clothes (plus sizes are so expensive!)

- going to NYC to see shows again (I haven't been in so long!)

- taking a vacation (I don't even pretend I could afford a 2nd airplane ticket) to Nova Scotia, Iceland, Russia, Istanbul, Ireland, or anywhere!

- adorable outerwear (especially cable knit stuff or stuff with unusual/asymmetrical cuts)

- beating my high score on Thriller (Michael Jackson Wii game)

- riding my bike again (knees hurt too much right now!)

- sleeping through the entire night without waking up even once

- keeping up with nephews/friends kids/maybe my own some day

- a million things I probably haven't thought of.

I won't miss not being able to sit in a booth at a restaurant unless the table moves. Definitely won't miss the sweating in places I should not, and not being able to play with my kids because I get so tired so quickly due to my heaviness.

I won't miss being the "Fat Mom" at my kids' school

I won't miss the resentment I've grown to have for myself

I, too, won't miss the extra pain on my knees, back...everything

I CANNOT WAIT to find the perfect cocktail dress and have my husband be proud to take me out on the town

What is it with boots? I wanna be able to wear those, too!

I want to be able to take my kids to the pool during the summer and not hide under towels or a coverup

So much more...

YES! I'm rolling...I'm on my phone and can't see your pic but for Beyonce we might need some airbrushing!!!

I will not miss my bikini cut under wear rolling down! Ugh hate that sooo much! I will not miss feeling hung over the next morning from overeating or binging on sweets the night before! I will not miss feeling frustrated when nothing looks right on my body & I have to go be social while feeling sick of being in my own skin. I will not miss not wanting to be close to my bf because I feel gross. I will not miss feeling hot & sweaty because I skipped a shower & had a hot cup of coffee! Lol most of all I will not miss feeling ugly when out with my bf & there are thin beautiful woman around that I know my bf would be attracted to. Amen!

I won't miss upper body fat bulging out every time i sit.

I won't miss clothes fitting somewhat ok standing, uncomfortable when sitting.

My surgery is scheduled for December 2nd, my pre op appt is tomorrow. So the count down begins.

I am lucky to have a coworker having same surgery on the same day.

Will not miss being invisible to regular size people. I'm fat couldn't possibly be an interesting person right?

I'm about done with this busted can of biscuits going on with my back fat!!!

I think nearly everything that's already been mentioned I won't miss.

The looks from strangers, worrying about fitting into chairs, bumping into things, sweating and shortness of breath, being extremly limited in clothing choice, the list is endless!

The list of things I'm looking forward to is just as long I think, I have always wanted to skydive, even something as simple as going shopping with my mum and sister and being able to try things in "normal" clothing shops, going out dancing with my friends in a gorgeous dress and not feeling self conscience and judged. The number one thing I am looking forward to the most is being able to live a long and healthy life.

I will not miss those stupid seat belt extenders at the airport, bulging out of the small chairs at the doctor's office, or my bulging gut for that matter! I will not miss being out of breath after climbing 28 stairs to get to my apt, sweating profusely, shopping at plus size stores, and feeling uncomfortable in my own skin!
