Things I won't/don't miss about being Obese
LeighDee replied to MissWilde's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I won't miss: ~my sister-in-law's constant "I'm so fat routine" where she goes on about how disgusting and over weight she is even though she's only about 15# over weight.. shooting "those looks" at me :tt1: ~getting out of those plastic lawn chairs and not having to have my husband pull it off my butt...this one is kinda funny especially when I have to go find him... ~having to maneuver around public bathroom doors that swing only to the inside and you really have to go :eek: ~having to drop my pants to my ankles in public restrooms just to wipe and hoping no one can see under the sides :cool2: ~using a towel instead of a washcloth to be able to reach the private neither regions in the shower :sad_smile: ~my CPAP machine :thumbdown: ~having to settle for crappy looking clothes ~my feet swelling until they look like balloons with tiny toes sticking out ~"those" looks and comments from 85% of people :cursing: ~walking in pain :bored: ~having the bottom of the steering wheel almost collapse your uterus just to reach the peddles ..:crying: ~not being able to catch my breath after any type of slight exertion.. especially sex...which makes my hubby think I'm more "there" than I am..lol.. and not being on top...:wub: ~having to sit down every 10 minutes at Six Flags and not being able to ride some rides .. :bored: I'm SO going to Six Flags after getting down towards goal weight and I'm gonna go to the final click...:thumbup: there are tons more but these are the ones off the top of my head:rolleyes2: -
