I have almost every item shared so far! Especially daughter graduation in June.

I would add not feeling like a freak or slug when in a group of people talking about physical activities and exercise.

Going to plays at theatre and not being worried about fitting into seats, come on Broadway!

I don't give two shyts about running........but for some reason I do want to run the Cooper River Bridge Run.

That....and I want to paddle from my hometown through the local river down to the Atlantic Ocean......get there....and call headquarters four days later and say...."Come get me....I've pulled my kayak ashore and am sitting outside at the nearby Mexican restaurant and having 'ritas and chips'n'salsa."

  • Diabetes resolving

No longer taking 10+ meds a day

Ziplining! Haven't been able to do these excursions on any of my past cruises

Sitting in chairs without having to judge whether it will hold me

Never having to set foot in a DXL store again

Being able to buy concert/show t-shirts and have them fit

Fitting into my "Lesbian Avengers" t-shirts! ("Too pretty to burn in hell" and "S natch the power!")

Less money on f o o d means more money for equipment!

New tuxes! With tails!

Running

Running faster than my little kids

Looking the mirror and seeing me as I think I am

Running into old friends and have them think about something other than my weight and me too

Swimming with my kids and having fun

Not having my body hurt so much when sitting on the floor

Knee pain

Getting my crazy blood pressure under control

Being able to wrap a towel completely around my body.

Tired of hearing." "You'd look amazing if you lost some weight." "You have a pretty face for a big girl."

Buying an arm strap for my phone that actually fits my arms.

Being pregnant without the fear of people not knowing if I'm overweight or pregnant.

Tired of not wanting to go out in public and enjoy my life because of my weight. Fear of other people's responses and judgments bc of my weight gain.

Not having to hide or feel invisible anymore. I feel like people often don't take me seriously bc of my weight or judge me bc of my food choices (whether healthy or not healthy).

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
