It's been awhile

Sorry it's been awhile since I posted anything. Not much has been happening lately. I found out I don't have to do 6 months worth of clinical weight loss YEAH!!! I'll be done the beginning of March and the surgeon can submit to insurance at that time. So keep you fingers crossed that everything is a BIG GO!!!!! I'm so anxious for a new life I can hardly stand it. People who have never had a weight problem just can't understand. I'm ready for simple things that thin people take for granted like:
1.)Having my Mom look down from Heaven and see her wish has come true, that her daughter is finally thinner and healthier.
2.) Being able to do more with my husband.
3.) Being able to do more with my sister.
4.) Taking my dog on a really long walk. (god he would love that)
5.) Walking up a flight of steps like a normal person and not one step at a time.
6.) Looking in the mirror and liking the person staring back at me.
7.) Being able to wrestle on the floor with Whizzer and my new great nephew Bobby. And not worrying if I'll be able to get back up.
8.) Being able to go on trips and not worrying if I can do all the walking required.
9.) Going shopping and not having to ride in a handicapped electric cart.
10.) Being able to shop in a regular store off the rack for less money, instead of having to order everything through plus size catalogs and paying an arm and a leg.
11.) Going out to eat and not having to request a table instead of a booth.
12.) Going to a ball game and fitting in those little seats.
13.) Looking down and seeing my toes.
14.) Walking up a flight of steps like a normal person and not one step at a time.
15.) Having joint pain pretty much all the time due to the weight.
There are many many more things.... maybe I'll list more at a later date. Two of my biggest regrets.
1.) Not doing this sooner so my Mom could have seen the results in person before passing away. She would have been so proud of me.
2.) Not doing this sooner so I could have made my husbands one wish in life come true, to be called Daddy. I know we would have made wonderful parents.
