Been Feeling FAT for weeks



Recommended Posts

Ok, so this is some very thinly veiled photo whoring, but I have been falling by the wayside for weeks, I'd lost my motivation, and have felt just as fat as I did 60lb ago.

This morning I get up and can find literally nothing to wear for work because everytihng looks and feels wrong, in desperation i grab a top my husband convinced me in to buying (depite it feeling too tight AND having horizontal stripes, and a pencil skirt I've not had the confidence to wear yet), I go to the mirror, and for the first time in a LONG time suddenly see the me who has lost 60lb.

Don't get me wrong, I can see the horrid mummy tummy and at least 20lb to still lose, but this morning this person smiled at me from the mirror, and it made me smile back! ;)

You look super cute! I even like the mommy tummy... remember that french girl in Pulp Fiction? She talked up women having a nice round tummy... it feels better to touch than a flat one! And with that sailor stripe shirt, and pencil skirt, you do look a little french! Love yourself, you look fantastic!

Words to live by. :)

Fabienne: Pot bellies (...) on a woman, a pot belly is very sexy. The rest of you is normal. Normal face, normal legs, normal hips, normal ass, but with a big, perfectly round pot belly. If I had one, I'd wear a tee-shirt two sizes too small to accentuate it.

Butch: You think guys would find that attractive?

Fabienne: I don't give a damn what men find attractive. It's unfortunate what we find pleasing to the touch and pleasing to the eye is seldom the same.

The feeling of being fat is a psychological thought it will change in time to match your body

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
