Hello, Happy Saturday.

:wave3:

If you could change one thing about your physical self what would it be?

I'd like to be a bit taller. Not much, I'm only 5 ft 3 but that's about average for women in these parts. A couple of extra inches would be so useful though. I'd never need to struggle to reach things on the top shelf again.

I'd like narrower shoulders. Tops/dresses/coats are always a bit too big on me because I have to buy them to fit through the shoulders.

I think being taller would be really nice! I’m shorter than you are by a half inch. When I go to the store I always have to look for someone to help me get items from the top shelves and if I go to a crowded event with friends it’s easy for them to “lose track of me.” :lol:

My feet. I am 5' 9" with a large frame so I have big feet, I wear a size 11 1/2 shoe which is hard to find. They are impossible to find in stores and there aren't too many online retailers that sell that size, most go from an 11 to a 12. I can wear a 11W Sketchers slip on but they aren't practical in the winter in Ohio. I have 3 pairs from San Antonio Shoemakers but they aren't cheap. I paid well over $100 for each pair. They are well made. I have gotten a lot of wear out of each pair and they still look like new. I still don't care for that initial outlay of cash to buy them, but I think in the long run I am not paying anymore then I would for cheaper shoes that don't last as long.

I'd like never to get a migraine headache again.

I'd like to be around 5' 7" or so. And about 20 pounds lighter, all in the right places. And stay that way!

Only one?

Probably getting rid of the flab on my arms would ne first. Thinner legs wpuld be second, so that I could have an easier time getting boots in my actual shoe size. Smaller pores on my face. And a bit of tooth adjustment and whitening. No dandruff.

I could probably go on all day.

Ditto! :yeah:

My father used to tell me, "good things come in small packages," but being a bit taller would have been nice. However, I've grown accustomed to my height and it doesn't change who I am so until they invent a pill for height I guess I'll just stand on my tip toes. :wink:

I wish I had normal perfect vision or close to it. I've been wearing glasses since I was 3 :eek: I think it may have been partly caused by a neighborhood kid throwing sand into my eyes. There were no adults supervising us. Later when I went home, Mom didn't bother to take me to the doctor or wash my eyes out. My nearsightedness is pretty bad. My glass lenses are thick:paperbag:

I'd like narrower shoulders. Tops/dresses/coats are always a bit too big on me because I have to buy them to fit through the shoulders.
I have the opposite problem. My shoulders / body are narrow so a lot of shirts, dresses, etc don't even fit on my shoulders. I can literally pull something over my head and it would just slide right down my body:rolleyes: One reason why I don't wear the unisex scrubs work provides. The small sized ones are too big and would expose what doesn't need to be seen:shocked:

I am quite satisfied with what I am now. I am short, not quite 5'2", but I at my age, I am used to it. I am not underweight or overweight, so that is good. My husband tells me all the time I am the best looking woman in her 70's he knows, so Life is Good. I will keep what I have.

I do plan on having plastic surgery at some point because I lost about 170 pounds and I need to deal with the excess skin, but the one thing I would change about myself but wouldn't have surgery for would be to have a butt that isn't so flat. My friends call it a plateau.

I could lose about 20 lbs, but I am pretty happy otherwise. I wish I had more time and energy to workout because I enjoy it, but one day the kids won't be home all the time (and will sleep like normal people), so I will get there.
