I'm looking forward to going horseback riding again. I've been an equine fanatic since about birth. My Mom claims I came out on a saddle! But I've been very self conscious of riding since my weight gain. I used to ride English, hunter jumper disicpline and I miss it. I think my jumping days may be over since I'm in my 40's now and have had a prior back surgery. But I'm eager to get back in the saddle again and just enjoy horses and riding once again.

Also, I was a water baby growing up and loved swimming, boating, canoeing, basically anything water related. So I'm eager to get this bod back into a local lake or swimming pool without feeling self-conscious as well.

And those roller coasters sound like fun. We have a new wooden one at a local amusement park called the Zippin Pippin that would be great to ride.

Warmest wishes,

Lisa

I can't wait to be losing! 

1: be in LOTS of pictures with my kids. I was looking at our pictures and I'm in maybe one or two every year. I can't wait to have pics of us up everywhere with me IN them!

2: roller coasters, amusement parks with my kids. I haven't ridden a roller coaster in almost 10 years. I would just die of humiliation if I attempted it and didn't fit so I didn't try.

3: shopping for clothes in just about any store I want to. Good bye Lane Bryant!

4: not worrying about who is going to tease my kids because their mom is fat. I love kids, but man are they cruel.

5: feeling comfortable in my own skin. I can't even remember the last time I was okay with how I looked/felt in my own body. It's been at least 9 years.

6: not everything being blamed on my "excess weight". It's so frustrating to be told everything that's wrong with you is because you are "over your ideal weight". Someone give them a gold star please! Hello, I do own a mirror, thank you Dr.

7: go to the beach in a bathing suit! I love the beach and haven't been to one wearing a swim suit since I was a child.

8: living a healthy LONG life with my kids and watching them live their lives.

sit in a tiny chair and not have my bum (and other parts) go numb

dancing

fit comfortably on an airplane seat and not use a seatbelt extension, also fit in the airplane toilets

being able to wear 100% of clothes in my wardrobe, instead of 5% that barely fit me, and 95% that are too tight

no more diet and exercise advise from people who i've just met for the 1st time - especially when they don’t know what the hell they're talking about

walking up the stairs without dying

hate it when i'm told i have a bubbly personality because i'm fat!

being able to share my food with others: i'm too greedy when it comes to food

have smaller boobs - it comes on the way

In no particular order:

1. Belly dance
2. Wear skirts without shorts underneath to prevent thigh rubbing
3. Go jogging with my dogs
4. Skinny sex!!!
5. Have a child
6. Go shopping at regular size stores
7. Buckle my seatbelt again
8. Never be afraid a chair is going to break
9. Enjoy being young!
