Surgery Eve: My dreams

Dec 30, 2012

On the eve of my surgery, I thought I should make a list of the things I dream of being able to do.  Some of these seem so trivial, but they are things that have been taken from me because of my obesity.

*Take pictures WITH my family, not be the one taking the picture

*Cross my legs (GOAL MET 2/13)

*Weigh less than my husband (GOAL MET 4/6/13)

*Be able to shop in the regular women's clothing section (GOAL MET 7/2013 FOR THE MOST PART...CAN GO BETWEEN WOMEN'S AND PLUS SIZE)

*Ride a rollercoaster

*Ride in the Jeep without straining to get the belt fastened (GOAL MET 5/13)

*Not worry about where I sit or what type of chair will hold my big butt LOL (GOAL MET 7/13 I STILL FIND MY BRAIN SUBCONSCIOUSLY WORRYING AT FIRST, BUT I SIT COMFORTABLY IN MOVIE CHAIRS NOW!!!)

*Wear tall boots (BOUGHT MY FIRST PAIR ON 10/13)

*Share clothes with my daughter?!? (ON 7/13 I WORE ONE OF MY DAUGHTER'S LARGER SHIRTS...NOT THERE YET, BUT IT WAS PRETTY EXCITING)

*Lose this double chin!!!

*Start taking aerobics classes again (WHY DO I LAG ON THIS??? I NEED A SWIFT KICK IN THE ASS!)

*Fly on an airplane without worrying about a seatbelt extension
