What I Won't Miss....



Recommended Posts

I would also like to stop getting the "how on earth did she net him?"looks from waitresses and store clerks when I am out with my hot military husband .

So true.....I am sick of those stares.

I am right there with all of you!! I cannot wait to lose all this hideous weight that I've held on to for so long! A few things I won't miss are: the overwhelming feelings of shame when I eat or pass up opportunities to go out, having quad boobs because bras cannot contain the girls, my flab resting on my legs whilst sitting, and feeling the need to overcompensate in other areas so people won't feel I am unable to keep up.

i always avoided the camera like it was the plague :(

When i wasn't that heavy yet, stiill didn't want to have a picture taken of me - didn't want others to see what i looked like, i think they already knew :o

thats why i don't have any decent, old pictures showing how i looked , before and after

i will not run away now when i see a camera ;)

I will not miss...

Being the fattest girl in the room,

Wincing when I get on an elevator full of people -cuz sometimes elevators dip down a little when people get on,

Telling my friends I don't want to go to Great America when I'd really love to but know damn well I won't fit on the rides,

Snoring like a chain saw,

Going shopping with my friends but only being able to look at jewelry and bags,

Feeling self-conscious in the grocery check out line,

Squeezing myself into as small of a ball as I can on airplanes,

Being out of breath doing daily activities,

Always sitting shotgun when in a car with others because I'm too fat to squeeze in the back seat with 2 others.

I can't WAIT to start my new life!

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
