Goodbye barely fitting/not fitting into movie theater seats.

Goodbye to being squeezed into train seats, next to a skinny person.

Goodbye to being totally out of breathe and profusely sweating from the easiest of activities.

I said goodbye to

  • daily prescription meds for diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol
  • sweating all the time
  • my feet hurting when I walked
  • my back hurting all the time
  • worrying about heart attacks & dying every time I got a pain
  • LANE BRYANT!!

I said hello to

  • two piece bathing suits
  • belts
  • seat back tray tables
  • my lap
  • Ann Taylor & Tommy Hilfiger!

Good-bye bad knee: hello new knee joint.  (Ortho surgeon refused to give me a new knee until I lost weight and I respected him too much to switch docs.)

Good-bye CPAP machine, hypertension medicines, and statins.

Good-bye deep pit in the mattress.

Good-bye sitting around and wishing I had a life; I'm too busy living a new one.

Hello shoe laces; good-bye slip-on shoes only.
