TwoStepsBack 15 Posted July 27, 2010 Hey Guys, I finally have a date for my sleeve op, 9th September! Woohooo! The time can't go quick enough, so I've been hanging in there by thinking of the things I'm looking forward to post-op. Not having sore thighs from them rubbing together! Finding some jeans that fit me Not eating the same amount as all the men in my family and still being hungry! Being able to wear all my gorgeous high heels without feeling like a transvestite! Not sweating like a fat old man when I'm exercising! Seeing my ex, and knowing that I look great! What are yours? :thumbup: xxxx L xxxx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackBerryJuice 349 Posted July 28, 2010 Hey Guys, I finally have a date for my sleeve op, 9th September! Woohooo! The time can't go quick enough, so I've been hanging in there by thinking of the things I'm looking forward to post-op. Haha, good timing! I was thinking of posting the same type of thread closer to my surgery date. Not having sore thighs from them rubbing together! YES, YES, YES! Even when I weighed as little as 145 lbs, I couldn't wear a skirt or short shorts if I had to walk more than a mile. So annoying! And I hate replacing my pants every 4-6 months because they rip! Being able to wear all my gorgeous high heels without feeling like a transvestite! I'm gonna change that to "Being able to wear all my high heels for hours on end without my feet absolutely killing me!" When I was 50 lbs lighter, I could dance like a maniac in high heels all night - now I'm hurtin' after half an hour! What are yours? :thumbup1: xxxx L xxxx Getting back into dance, specifically ballet and starting modern dance....which undoubtedly will be much easier once I drop a few pounds and my feet don't get slaughtered when I jump. I'm hoping this will be the first year that I actually feel up to performing at the annual dance company recital. Here's to my recovery being quick, so I can get back to the barre by mid-September! Shaving off a couple of minutes from my 5K and 10K times Getting visible abs again...maybe this time I can finally get a 6-pack, and not just a 4-pack Saving like $300/month on food and putting it towards vacations....hellz yeah! My knee pain/discomfort getting better...I don't think it will ever go away (chronic inflammation), but it's definitely worse now that I'm 210 lbs than when I was 165! Getting down to a more reasonable bra size (currently 38F) so I can wear cuter bras...haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSleever 228 Posted July 28, 2010 I think of new things all the time. I haven't set my date yet but I feel like I'm getting close to having the money. Being about to soak in a bathtub, fully covered, without Water spilling out. Wearing cute cheap clothes Being flirtted with by men again My stomach not sitting on my lap Having a slim face so I can get any hair cut I want Wearing shorts in the summer and shorter skirts Fitting into booths comfortably Eating a small amount of food and feeling full Did I mention cheap clothing? Having more energy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
