As well as non scale victories I want some good life victories as well. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Being able to slide into resturant booths instead of a table and chair, trying out furniture in a store and not having to ask for help getting back up, being allowed to sit on relatives furniture without them bringing in an old wood chair from the back porch, (yeah it really happened) being able to kneel and get back up at church without grabbing the pew in front, finding clothes in pretty colors instead of the ugly poorly cut ones I find in my local store's miniscule plus size department. Sometimes to fit the rest of me they gape at the neck. I have to wear a t-shirt underneath or expose the "girls" to the breeze. Find fitting slacks that don't ride up in the back and give me a wedgie. No longer buying Granny Panties and Industrial strength bras. Finding them in colors and prints instead of stark white. If I tried to get intimate with someone they'd laugh at my undies, and if by chance we got that far the size of my panties is so big when he tossed them they'd land over top of my lamp and obscure it. Of course the dark might be a good thing. Having my body not glow in the moonlight like an airport beacon. Being identified by my name instead of That fat woman with the red hair. Bring able to outrun a molester or at least able to raise my leg high enough,to kick him where it counts, the best I could do now is stomp on his toes. Rollar skate without banking myself into the side rail to slow down. Going to parades and being able to stand up and watch them. Maybe someday I can March in them again! Those are a few of my hopes and wishes. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Well I went to seminar at different hospital, one I'm considering switching,my records to. Something curious, they start their Bandera and sleevers on liquid-puree-mooshy- regular, the RnYs liquid and then teeny,tiny,pieces of regular. Isn't that strange? They do 400 bypasses each year so you would think they know what they're doing! Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Apropos of nothing exactly, but does anyone know if LuLu,Roman of HeeHaw is still living? Your mention of LuLaRo triggered something in my brain. When you get to my age you've encountered so much it happens.There was an old-timey song that went" these foolish things remind me of you!" Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

I have a regulation Ohio State jacket size 18 hanging up. Not the cheap discount store knock-off. Make you a promise when I can fit it I will post the picture on Bariatric Pal even if it is the height of summer. Also I want a Columbus Crew t shirt.

Anks how is your search for surgery going? Hoping you'll find an answer soon. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Cloudburst maybe the,problem is surgeons like to cut people open, they don't like talking to them. You may be an old junky jalopy to him. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

In a similar vein: if you've had an ulcer prior to surgery are you more likely to produce anastomotic ulcers after an RnY? Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

And there are people who did not have their surgeries not completed for this very reason. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

There are now 4 forms of communication: Telephone- Telegraph- Internet- Tell my relatives, Enough said? Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Has anyone ever heard of a reverse problem or was it denial? My late husband was 3 inches taller and 25-30 lbs heavier than I the entire 44 years of marriage. He never regarded himself as being obese although undeniably he always was. You hear often someone say "I still feel fat inside" well he never did. Please comment! Won't hurt my feelings and he's not able to be listening. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

I love people who ask questions like that. Q Why didn't you tell me you were lactose intolerant? A. Because I never was before. Reminds me of lawyers queries. Q Have you lived in this city your entire life? A Well, not yet. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

To some extent we share a similar problem. I am going to go forward with my surgery and I hope you do also. We'll go off into weight loss victory land together. If you get there 1st save me a seat on the Losers Bench! Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

You are a brand new man or like the song from the kids movie "Its a Brand New World" Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

You and food have just finalized your divorce. And like a victim of abuse you're hesitant to put yourself back into that situation. Hopefully by the time you feel better you will reconcile with good healthy food products. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app
