My top 3 anticipated NSVs

1) being able to reach everything for shaving, washing and wiping purposes

2) being out of plus sizes

3) having a normal size bath towel wrap all the way around me

      Being out of plus size is a big one for me. I am very close now and I can't wait to be able to shop for pants in any department in any store!

      Being able to wear tall boots, because my calves aren't too big.

      My blood pressure is 120/80 down from 170/100! Clothes fitting better When I'm tired, I'm not craving sugar and simple carbohydrates

    Even though the normal sized bath towel wraps around me, I still like using my beach towels from my heavier days because now they REALLY wrap around me!

    yes, yes, and YES!!!! every single one of these!!!! not to mention

    (4) no more raw thighs that rub together when wearing dresses/skirts in the heat that Texas enjoys for 10months out of the year.

    (5) not wondering how WIDE my butt looks when I'm doing squats or incline leg curls.

    (6) knowing I will be able to keep up with my (future) kiddos. heck, knowing I'll be more fertile to HAVE those future babies :)

    Thanks for posting this! I have been thinking about the future NSVs I am looking forward to as well! (I am also pretty excited to be getting closer to them!)

    I also can't wait to be able to wear clothes that are not plus size! I also look forward to:

    -buying tall boots in a style that isn't determined by the ones that fit over my calves

    -sitting at at attached chair/desk comfortably (and not freaking out when I go to a workshop that has them about whether I am going to fit)

    -sitting in a seat at the movies/in an auditorium without "spillover" into the seat next to me

    -sitting comfortably in a restaurant booth, even when the table is bolted down

    I am already seeing some of these, and I'm sure that there will be more that I haven't even considered a possibility as I get closer to goal!
