The Lists (Good and Bad)

Things I WON'T miss (but seriously can't imagine life without yet):

My thighs rubbing together

Snoring (done!)

Shopping at stores with large sizes (kinda done!)

Not worrying about fitting into booths/chairs/plane seats/etc (done!)

Having to work twice as hard to hike/ride a horse/etc. (done!)

Being unbelievably embarrassed in a bathing suit

Being over the weight limit on our kayak (done!)

Causing a tidal wave if I get on a boat

Causing an earthquake if I fall off my horse

Not being able to mount my horse from the ground (done!)

Not being able to cross my legs

Lying on my back and not being able to breathe (done!)

Wishing my husband had a wife he could be proud of (done!!!!!)


Things I can't wait for (but , again, can't really imagine yet:

Not having a belly (after ps)

Looking my age

Being hit on by GOOD LOOKING (not old, special ed, still living with mom) men (I know I'm married, but it's nice to be hit on!)

Rock climbing

Being as athletic as my husband (and how I USED to be)

Being able to run down a hill without worrying that I"m going to fall

Being smaller than my SIL

Being smaller than my DH

Being pregnant and LOOKING pregnant (not fat)

Crossing my legs COMFORTABLY

My thighs not rubbing together

My next high school reunion (the only reason I missed the last one was because of all the weight I gained)

Not having to ask the weight limit on things like the rock climbing wall

Dancing without looking like an idiot (then again, I don't know if weight loss will cure this one!)

Not constantly thinking about food

Being able to run a mile with my students...and beating some of them!!

Being the kind of basketball coach who runs with her kids rather than watching from the sidelines


I know this is a long post, but it was kind of cool to see all the things I've already accomplished...even though I'm still 38 pounds from goal!
