LOL

I'm really looking forward to getting my heel/ankle better, although my weight isnt the cause of the injury. I just want to be able to go out and exercise like I used to be able to (even 12 months ago at the same weight!).

Buying clothes in normal shops. Having a black tie function to go to and not feeling physically sick at the thought of finding something to wear.

im looking forward to be seen as a normal person, walking into any shop and ahve clothes fit me, running after my 4 kids, swimming at the beach, going out for social functions, and just to get some self esteem back and feel good about the way i look.

Form fitting clothes would be nice instead of tents.

I want to roller blade with my sons, ages 23,25,27. I never got to do anything fun because I have always been horizontally challanged. I hate the word OBESE!!! I also have grandkids that are little, 10 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 9 years. My 9 year old grandson thought when I got back from TJ, that I wouldn't be Fluffy (his way of saying fat) anymore, He was disapointed when I got home. I hope he will enjoy me better in a few months.
