Just thinking about what I would be able to do without this excess weight...... things I used to do, things that for so many are silly or not even thought about, but that make me re-evaluate my vacations and my social outings and my plans for any given day 

~ sit in ANY seat at all and not worry about fitting in it, or breaking it!!  taking an airplane to Disney, like my family wants to, instead of always driving 24 hours 

~ doing my own pedicure, crossing my legs, jumping off a stair or climbing a ladder, walking my dog for long walks, not looking at the weight limits on everything!, running....heck even walking a 1/2 marathon, sunbathing, sitting on my husbands lap, seeing my lap!, wearing a maxi dress, wearing high heeled wedge sandals, playing ball again, having wide eyes again....not squinty, energy to clean, clean, clean my house

~ wanting to dress up, go out on a date with hubby, go to a movie, dance, walk my son to school everyday

I joined a week or so ago, and was having issues with my doctor not wanting to refer me for WLS as she thought I should just start 'moving'  and join WW again! I am 47 yrs old, and have been a member of WW on and off since I was 17!  I am at the heaviest I have ever been, even when 9 months pregnant with my son at 38 yrs old.  I went back to same doctor on Thursday this week and she had a change of heart and faxed in my referral on Thursday!!!!   I have researched WLS and read soooo much on this website, I am ready for this......or I believe I am.  I just went through some before and after photos and one member really hit home with me.  She appeared to be my age and weighed the same.  I just spent the last hour reading her blog and it is what inspired me to start my own.  Not sure if anyone will ever read it, and that is OK, it is for me at the moment.  Maybe one day my WLS journey will inspire another.........
