    I know I can do all of this now, technically, but I'm really looking forward to clothes shopping, traveling, swimming and basically everything else that I love to do but will feel better about as a healthier person.

    I can't wear a bikini.
    I can't wear shorts.
    I can't wear tight clothing.
    I can't not have my hair on both sides of my face in order to hide my almost obvious double chin.

    I just want to be confident in myself once more. And I look forward to being confident in myself the most.
    I'd wear a beautiful dress and go get myself a date.. It's been a while I let anyone ask me out.

    Being active! Running, jumping, playing with my kids more, basketball, hiking.

    Flying in an airplane without being shoehorned into the seats, using a seatbelt extension, annoying others around me, and feeling self-conscious and embarrassed.

    Feeling normal. Not being concerned about what I can do and what I can't do, physically.

    Being able to shop pretty much anywhere for clothes, and having a selection that I can choose from.

    Tons of other things that many people just take for granted! I can guarantee that I will always be aware of what I can do that I couldn't before, and each of those things will be the incentive to never get to where I started from again.

    Running and running and running and running.

    Oh and I love all the vacation reasons like ziplining and rollercoastering - but I would love to be able to climb things, like ruins and monuments without being totally out of breath.

    Ride horses without feeling too big.
    Wearing singlets or other short sleeve tops.
    Wearing shorts.
    Wearing togs comfortably.
    Running.
    Being normal!!
    And I remember a few years ago at school there was a flying fox type thing that said weight limit of 90kgs.
    I was the only one who didn't go on it. :(

    amusement parks, running, hike a mountain, bungee jumping and soooo want to zipline :) Shop in the clothing sections I've never walked through because I've never had a reason to. Wear a cute wide belt on top of a sweater without my roll hanging over! Over half way there!!!

    Hmm. Well I guess I would like a few more clothing store choices. I am at the top end of most stores at the moment (the ones for women at least). It would be nice to be able to fit into pants at H&M. And go to BCBG to get something not knit.
    I won't ever have an easy time clothing shopping as I am both busty and have big thighs.

    Wouldn't mind having a bandage style dress, that I would likely never wear. :P

    Shorts.
    Sleeveless tops.
    Cute dresses.

    Bike riding.
    Swimming in public.

    Sitting in any chair I want, not just the "sturdy" ones.

    Taking my seat on the airplane without the person next to me making an 'oh no' face.

    Riding any ride I want to at Disneyland.

    Sitting in a regular chair and not worrying if it's gonna break when I sit in it.:cry:
    Riding a horse
    Walking into the room and everyone not staring at the fat lady
    riding amusement rides
    sitting in the seats at the race track, and not feeling like I have a girdle on.
    shopping in the regular stores, and not the Big lady stores
    sitting in the booth seat and not requesting a table so I can fit
    Running
    I can go on and on, but I wont, but this is an idea. :wink:

    Being able to wear a bathing suit and not feel awkward.
    Feeling healthy again.
    Feeling attractive again.

    I cannot run around and play with my kids without getting winded. I want to be able to play with my kids at the park.
