20 Things

 
As I get ever closer to my scheduled surgery date, I've started to think about all of the things I want to do when I'm thinner.  For the most part, I don't let being fat stop me from doing things I want to do (ask me about ziplining in Jamaica one of these days!) but there are definitely some things I just can't do.  Maybe this list will inspire you to get up, get out and get going on your own journey.

Note:  Although this list is numbered, this isn't really in any preferential order.

  1. Hike the White Mountains (NH is really beautiful)
  2. Finally learn to ski or snowboard
  3. Wear a 2-piece (not necessarily a bikini)
  4. Swim with dolphins
  5. Be an extra in a film
  6. Attend a live taping of a show
  7. Go white water rafting (OMG this is so fun!)
  8. Get certified (to scuba dive, silly!)
  9. Volunteer overseas for a week doing something physical like improving homes or helping with an agriculture project
  10. Purchase a piece of custom-made clothing
  11. Learn to kayak
  12. Take a rowing class (ya know, on the Charles)
  13. Relax in a natural hot spring
  14. Trek the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
  15. Wear skinny jeans that are actually skinny
  16. Wear a dress in summer and not worry about a terrible case of Chub Rub
  17. Stop holding onto clothes that will fit me "someday" and make that day "today"
  18. Cancel my Lane Bryant credit card
  19. Play basketball with my husband
  20. Buy a pair of stilettos
