Maybe not a bucket list, per se, but there are a few things I'm looking forward to:


Being able to play with my kids for more than a short while.
Getting back in to some of my favourite clothes.
Being able to put on my sock and tie my shoes easily.
Not having to worry about whether or not I'll fit into chairs/booths etc.
Looking good.
Feeling good.
Better sex.
Sexy underwear.
Riding my bike again.

There's lots more, but that's a start.

What are you looking forward to?

    Being in public and not worrying that the little kids are staring at me because I'm so large.

    Buying a bathing suit and a bicycle and being able to use both comfortably and not carrying what I look like.

    Not visiting my cardiologist every month, sometimes two or three times a month!

    tucking in a shirt.

    visitin with my family and not having the obnoxious neices ask me about being fat. (they are so not in my will! LOL)

    Making my Mom proud....my Dad too even though he's not with us anymore.

    Shoot and score, not have to dig under the pile of pants hoping there might be the big size you need( why do they always put the big sizes on the bottom when we can not hardly bend over?)

    i know right and then you look threw all the pants in hopes that one has been mixed with the smaller size then when you find one it has a length for a 7 foot tall man i guess they think all people over size 40 have to be tall

    Not stepping onto a plane and asking for a belt extender. (And not dreading the looks as people board the plane after me realizing that the only seats available are in the middle next to the fat girl).
    Not seeing a number in front of the X on clothing labels.
    Running (or jogging at least) a 5k race and generally becoming 'a runner'.
    Buying a 2-piece bathing suit without a skirt, and with a little skin showing on my midriff.
    Wearing tank tops and sleeveless shirts (and piling on the sunscreen).
    Being a tourist in Europe without being the fat, out of breath American.
    Getting enough catcalls and lewd comments about how "hot" I am that I'm annoyed and not mystified.

    I try to avoid this kind of thinking as I don't find it production at all. However.

    - Not buy clothes with a X in the size.
    - Better sex.
    - Buy a bikini.
    - Have more self confidence and self esteem.
    - Be at a healthy weight when my husband and I are ready to take the step to have children.
    - Not worry about planes/rides/etc
