25 Reasons for WLS
Feb 13, 2009
My friend shared this with me and wanted to save it here. Love her list.Why I decided to have weightloss surgery... 1. I want a lululemon hoodie 2. I don't have to worry when flying about invading the space of the person next to me 3. I actually WANT to buy a bike, ride it and not worry about people looking at my fat ass 4. Smaller size = more clothing shopping choices 5. I have always wanted to be called "statuesque" 6. I just want to be categorized as "within normal range" size wise 7. I want to wear my boyfriend's shirts to bed 8. I want to wear a swimsuit with less fear 9. I want to be able to do reverse cowgirl more easily 10. I want to do yoga and not feel like I have to be in the back row so no one stares at my ass 11. I want to be more active and not worry about my face getting red 12. I don't ever want to go through the pre-op rigamarole about my weight EVER again 13. I want to my sassiness back - I want to walk in a room and "own" it again 14. I want to protect my health as I get older 15. I don't want to go to a restaurant or somewhere in public and worry about how I look sitting in certan chairs 16. I want to take dance lessons and not have it be embarrassing or impossible 17. I want to buy lots and lots of pretty new underwear and bras 18. I don't want to worry about what angle photos of me are taken from 19. I want to be a hot MILF or cougar 20. I just don't want to hear "fat" jokes in movies or on TV and cringe any more 21. I don't want to made fun of in public by nasty little teenagers (but, hey, they will just find something else to pick at!!!) 22. I want to go on adventures and not be afraid to try things 23. I want to be able to sit in someone's lap 24. I know I can't do it on my own. I have tried and failed. I don't want to fail at it any more. 25. I want to depend on friends and family for emotional support, not chocolate.
