1.  Be more comfortable on plane rides
2.  Have more room between me and the steering wheel
3.  Personal... finally to be able to wipe my behind without difficulty
4.  Better personal hygiene ... easier when you are not so huge
5.  more energy to do stuff
6.  Fit in alot of my old clothes that doesn't fit me now from when I was smaller back in 2003-04
7.  Shave my legs much easier
8.  Finally be able to cross my legs.

I cant wait to wear BOOTS again!!!
Snow boots, dressy boots and casual boots. I love boots. I might even buy some cowboy boots!!!
( i actually had a dream the other night and i was wearing RED COWGIRL BOOTS!!)

I am soooo looking forward to laying flat when I sleep. I know I will have little to no Acid reflux/heart burn after my WLS. DO you know how longs it been since i only slept with ONE pillow or had to get up in the middle of the night to go sleep on the couch sitting up?? LOL

I cant wait to keep up with my kids...at the mall or the zoo or anywhere where i have to walk alot.

Going up stairs without getting out of breath.

bending over to tie my shoes without my stomach getting in the way.

not having to lift my stomach up when i want to curl up on the couch. You know...ill tell you something very embarrassing. I have more then once misplaced my cell phone while sitting on the couch...guess where i found it? when i would stand up to see if it had got caught in between the couch cushions...it fell out of one of my rolls...OMG!!! How embarrassing.

I am looking forward not not having to replace toilet seats. Also...I'm with pixie...too embarrassed to admit it but i guess its safe in here to say it....personal hygiene!! Cant wait to feel more confident about taking good care of myself! Showering will be easier..wiping will be easier. Maybe i wont always choose the handicap stalls when i am out in stores!! Oh...and like pixie...shaving my legs with ease...that's a good one!!!

The fear of sitting in someones chair at their house and maybe breaking it.....that will be gone!!

Think of all the room i will have between me and my steering wheel in my car. Oh..and the car wont move when i get in and out. That's sooo embarrassing.

I wont feel so self concuish when i have to bend over at work and everyone looking at my big behind!!!

being able to take care of my feet and toes. painting my toes in the "NORMAL" fashion. You know...just bending over and taking a few secs to do them...LOL

no more ankle, knee & lower back pain. Maybe ill get rid of all my headaches. My bra probably wont leave big indentations in my shoulders. The swelling in my hands and feet will be gone.

Fitting into my bathtub so i can finally take a bubble bath!!!! OMG!!!!!

BETTER SEX WITH MY HUBBY!!!!!

wearing a belt....never thought about the belt that comes with the jeans msashley...your right...that is going to be too awesome!!

maybe ill smile more....i guess i don't do that as often as i think i do.

I could keep going..but that's the main stuff. There is probably more that i don't even realize...it wont hit me until i actually do them and think...."i never did that before" It will be a WOW moment!!
