What Are Some Things You Can't Wait For Once You Loose Weight?



Recommended Posts

When I have my surgery & loose my weight I can't wait to drive comfortably, because my seatbelt is kinda tight. And I can't wait to walk down the street & don't feel like people are looking at me.

I can't wait til I can be comfortable in my clothes, comfortable in my own skin, be able to play volleyball with my daughter without feeling like I'm gonna die or look like an idiot, I love to swim & can't wait until I'm not the biggest one in the pool & thinking everyone is looking at me going OMG she should not be in here. There are a ton more but these are just a few.

I can't wait to not have to over think everything...from what am I gonna wear, what if I don't fit in the chair, what if I look like an idiot, where to shop, etc. I'm ready to not be the biggest person in the room! Just to be normal, relaxed and go with the follow because I'm not worrying.

I can't wait to shop at a regular size store with my friends instead of avoiding shopping with them.

I also can't wait to be competing in sports again. Right now I feel like I don't get asked to go for runs or walks because I am too big!

I'd also can't wait to sit in my car with a thick winter coat and turn the wheel without holding my breath!

How about walking through the sand at the beach without stopping half way there and stop and rest while the rest of my family is running.

I cant wait to not be so paranoid about going out in public, thinking people are watching everything I do....I also can't wait to travel more....two of my cousins, both around my age, agreed to go on a fun trip with me once I make it 100 pounds lost!!! SO I'm looking forward to that!!

I can't wait to participate in picture taking. I avoid the camera like the plague because when I see the pictures, I am mortified. I also can't wait to wear white and not feel/look like the Michelin Man. I mostly can't wait to wake up everyday and my first thought not be about how fat I am and feeling hopeless about changing it.

Oh and one more thing. This may seem silly to you but I want to be able to look cute in just a plain ole white tank top and jeans. LOL

I can't wait to wear clothes that don't have an X in the size. I can't wait for my feet to not kill me when I wear heels all day. I can't wait to no longer have deep marks in my back from bra straps. I can't wait to enjoy having my picture taken again. I can't wait to not feel anxious, hot and sweaty in social situations. Oh my, the list could go on and on.

      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.
