I think there is some danger of expecting too much from life without fat. Thin people can have horrible lives; fat people can have great lives. But it's better to be healthy, no matter the quality of the rest of your life.

To me, it will be about the simple pleasures that I'm currently denied because of my size and weight. I don't expect some paradise to emerge when 100 pounds of weight are gone. But I do expect improvements in the way I feel and look and in the things I can do.
