For me, being able to just walk or run without being in so much pain and winded. Right now I can barely walk 5 minutes without by back seizing up, and about 10 minutes before I get winded.

Too many to list!!!  But a big one for me is to walk down an airplane aisle without having people look away hoping I won't sit next to them!!

Quality of life and getting off my meds.

Definitely, getting off the meds is my number one. I also think it will be cool when I say that I need to run for the train, I will be able to run for the train.

I was really looking forward to being able to go to a doctor and not have everything blamed on my weight.

Getting off of diabetes medication is my biggest hope!

i am also looking forward to a new wardrobe! I feel like I have never really got to dress the way I want because I had to wear what was available not what reflects me as a person. I can't wait to be the preppy princess I've always dreamed of being! :)

I want to go to a water park with my kids and not be embarrassed.

Finally being able to get on a horse again and not look like a female version of Hoss from Bonanza.  Also, screaming with delight when I throw all of my pill bottles in the garbage.
