When we lose this weight, what....

are some of the little things you're looking forward to? I'm talking fringe benefits rather than the major health related reasons. Me: 1. Not having to struggle (while hubby laughs) when putting on hose or socks. 2. Wearing heels without worrying about breaking them. 3. Popping buttons or gaping blouses. Now, THAT looks professional, doesn't it? lol 4. Buying regular eyeglasses instead of being steered to ones that fit my big head. 5. Wearing a pair of thongs that actually started out as thongs not as regular panties. Need I say more? Anyone else dreaming of such small things?

You bet I am. I'm dreaming of the day I can :wear a tight pair of jeans, something I've never been able to do. :shop for cheaper clothing so I can buy more :be able to go into a restaurant and sit comfortably in a booth :spend a day walking in an amusement park without my feet swelling to the size of footballs. So much more but it would take forever to complete the list. Patty

Dreaming of: -going to the movies and fitting in the seat (not over hanging on my family and their armrests) -shopping in Victoria Secrets for things that will actually fit ME -boogie boarding with my kids -horse back riding on the beach -not having to worry about the weight limit on an amusement park ride -fitting in airline seats comfortably -running, biking, and hiking with my family the list could go on and on..........

For me it would be: 1. walking to the mailbox without feeling out of breath. 2. to not feel drained after sex! 3. to have more energy for daily things. 4. sense of healthiness!!!!! 5. fitting into regular sizes 6. amusement park rides with my kids. Jacque

Hi JoAnne, I too am looking forward to the other side. Some of the things I can't wait to do is: 1. Call Lane Bryant, Romans, Sillohettes etc. and telling them to take me off of their mailing list because I am too small to wear their clothes. 2. Being able to ride the amusement park rides with my kids. 3. Being able to go hiking again 4. Being able to be my young age w/o feeling like a hundred years old. 5. wearing a bathing suit and feeling comfortable. 6. being able to wear clothes that I fit into instead of hide in!!!!! I am so excited....and I just can't hide it.....lalalalalalala

wearing a nice pair of straight leg jeans with a nice belt and actually wearing the shirt on the inside isnt that a change of pace lol im really dreaming but i know this dream is just not a reg dream its the real thing
