I want to wear a pair of fierce Stilleto shoes! Seriously, I want a very expensive pair of designer jeans a crisp shirt with a wide belt an expensive handbag and a pair of bad high heeled shoes!

You are a girl after my own heart!! I have a pair of heels that I love but I never wear them because they hurt too much. I am too fat to wear heels for any length of time. It sucks!

Here's to look HOT & Stylish!!

Mamacj,

My 3 year old daughter and I were watching the Olympic equestrian events yesterday and she asked me to do that. I used to jump horses in my younger days but I won't even get on one now because I feel so bad for the horse! I told her once I lose all my weight she and I can take lessons together. :thumbup:

I want to run with my 4 year old son!

I should rephrase...I want to teach my son to run. He thinks that running is this funny trot that I do....and now he does the same thing :wink:

Then I want to ride bikes with him!! he begs often :wink2:

I'm torn. I want so many things. I want to be able to walk in any store and try on clothes. I want so bad to be able to ride carnival rides, without getting stuck in the ride. I want so bad to be pretty enough to turn a head or two when I walk in. I want to feel good about myself. Funny thing is, just loosing what I had to preop has that feeling starting.

I want to not need diabetes meds. I want to feel free. Not feel like my fat will stop moving sooner or later when I have to move fast (which is often with twin 2 yr olds).

I don't want to be the fat friend. I'm tired of that title.

I want to take a cruise and not feel like the biggest one on the boat. I have always wanted to take a cruise but keep putting it off because I know how uncomfortable I would be if I was the biggest one there.

hahah. Sorry, I was responding to NayRay13's message and PCOS is Post Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. With symptoms such as Hair growth on the face, acne near the chin and mouth, irregular periods and in most all cases causes infertility.

I want to be able to ride a gondola at the Venetian in Vegas with my boyfriend and not worry about the boat being lopsided or tip over. Or go horseback riding at the ocean and not be over the weight limit. Also, not have to ask for the seatbelt extension on an airplane.

hey, i don't know if the PCOS goes away or not...i will have to ask my dr. i do know that all of this is part of what they call metabolic syndrome....and i am hoping to get rid of it...the pcos can cause diabetes, heart disease, infertility, not to mention the painful cysts...now my cysts are alot better and so is the pain, since i have been taking metformin...it is the treament for PCOS...and it really does help...

My dr's are hopeful it'll at least be more managable for me. I too have PCOS. I did manage to get pregnant 4 times... 2 resulting in kids. I have a 11 1/2 yr old son from my first (was on birth control pills), and then I got pregnant on an ovary suppression med (xoladex, lupron type med), with twins! I also took for my second pregnancy metformin, because I was diabetic. Apparently it helped.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
