    Being able to wear cute shoes again, not just comfortable ones. I wore heels a few weeks ago and wound up getting x-rays 4 days later. Didn't break anything, but did some soft tissue damage.

    I used to work in heels, 8 hours a day. Now they are mini-torture chambers.

    Wearing nice clothes without my monster muffin top.
    And getting out of bed and bounding down the stairs without saying "ouch"!

    I am really hoping that I can lose all the medications I am taking.
    Blood pressure, Cholesterol, and oral meds for Diabetes.
    These were brought on by being fat and would love to eliminate them from NOT being fat.

    not that i *can't* but more that I *won't* - wear sleeveless tops.

    other things that have been mentioned:
    *stop taking blood pressure and cholesterol meds
    *being able to buy clothing anywhere, not being stuck with "whatever fits"
    *feeling comfortable and confident about my body
    *being able to go hiking again
    *ride a bike (again, this is somethign that I *can* do but I felt uncomfortable and unstable so would rather be a smaller size before i attempt this again)

    I am grateful that I have a job, go to work, can still fit in *my* half of the seat on public transportation, have not yet needed an extension belt on an airplane (but on my last flight came pretty close).

    Clothes!! Able to buy clothes, and I have not worn a dress or a skirt since I was maybe 12.. I am 29... maybe I'd get one. My family thinks I just don't like them, but the truth is I do not like how I look in them.

    Also riding rides at amusement parks. I don't ride anything anymore, to embarrassed and scared that the "locks" or whatever on the ride wont fit and I'll be embarrassed.

    Also riding a bike and rollerblading, used to do that when I was younger.

    No more ankle injuries! I'm so tired of my ankles not holding out with intensive cardio because of my extra weight.
