Feeling better (less aches and pains), more energy, more social (stop obsessing about if I'll fit into the booth when we go out to eat, or if I'm going to pull a Shallow Hal and break a stool or chair, how I need to sit in aisle seat at a concert and attempt to make myself smaller so I don't annoy the people around me,) being able to have a picture taken of me that doesn't make me cringe or cry and pray no one sees it!, having a shirt for more than a day before I spill something down the front of me, going to my PCP and getting a clean bill of health instead of another referral to a specialist because something else is wrong with me, a better sex life, more energy, wearing a worn out pair of levis in regular size and looking damn good, etc, etc.

I just pray I'll get there...

2. Not being the fattest mom at all school events.

3. Shopping in normal stores, not having to hunt for the single rack of ill-made plus sized jeans and shirts.

4. Being comfortable in my own skin.

5. Getting off my hypertension meds.

6. Fingers crossed my snoring improves!! ( I know this doesn't happen for everyone but in the past when I was down to 225 I all but stopped so I'm hopeful!)

Thought of another one.

We live in a lake town so we spend a lot of the Summer at the Water. We bought kayaks last year, so each of the 4 of us (my husband, kids, and myself) have our own boats. I was SO not graceful getting in and out of that thing! I almost tipped it several times because I didn't have the strength to get my big body out of it correctly. I'm looking forward to being able to go out with my family and not panic that I'm going to get stuck and make a fool of myself. Also - the size of my life jacket is ridiculous. I'd like a "normal" sized one! Being comfortable in a swimsuit is going to be amazing, as well.

Next Summer should be a lot more fun for me

That's a good one! I avoid kayaks! I'd also like to be able to ride on the jetski with my boyfriend and not feel like I'm going to take us down. :-).
