We can make native tribesmen scream "Bring back the sun!"

The next famine. We win.

We're funny, and if you don't agree, we'll sit on you.

Have a place to set the bowl of popcorn---and keep it away from the kids with your elbows!:mad:

Babies LOVE jumping on our built-in trampoline!

We are more gullible when it comes to buying diet anything--so the 'diet' market seeks us out and we are their godsend! It is nice to be someone's target audience! lol

You can hide things on your person or even in your FUPA.

If our plane goes down in the frozen tundra we'll be the last to be eaten.

Of course that means WE'LL be the ones doin' the eating. Ladyfingers anyone?

We give the medical industry and fast food franchises a stable employment base.

We can show empathy for fat people, after we stop being fat.

You can stand up and take your chair with you and still keep your hands free.

You get told you have a big personality.

You feel warm longer than everyone else.

We are often fitter than we think - with strong muscles and reasonably good cardio fitness (from lugging our fat behinds around 24-7).

More padding!!

Honest to God, yesterday I accidently stepped on a National Geographic that was lying on the carpet and did a sideways *SWOOSH!* right on my turkey-plump glute and didn't hurt a thing! A skinny lass woulda bruised a hip for sure!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
