These are things that I want to do, some big, some small - some that may seem like nothing to people who are smaller and take things like this for granted - that my weight is getting in the way of.
I want to:
– fit in a movie theater seat without a contortionist act
– get up off the couch on the first try
– cross my legs without pulling one up
– tie my own shoes, without having to pull my leg up
– get out of the bathtub without help
– want to stop being afraid of when I go down stairs
– go clothes shopping and buy something that is not the biggest size there
– buy something cute at a thrift store
– I want to wear high heels again
– have enough energy to get a part time job
– be thin enough to donate plasma
– finish the grocery shopping without a backache and my feet killing me
– go for a hike
– swim in a lake
– have one chin
– want to be in photograph instead of avoiding them
– ride a roller coaster again
– ride a horse
– drive a car again
Dreams that have come true:
– ride a bike (still a lot of work, but I’m doing it!)
– go overnight camping
– swim in public again
– swim in a river (it was thrilling!)
– go on a cave tour (It was really cool, but hard!)
– sleep laying down again! (it is wonderful, I am so proud of me!)
– improvement in acid reflux (I am happy about this)
