I Can't Wait To Not Have To...



Recommended Posts

To not have those nasty stomach sounds after you eat what in the world is that? A whale talking through my stomach. Lol

Hate to break it to you but your stomach will make some beastly sounds at the beginning, my husband and I would sit watching tv and bust a gut laughing at the noise my stomach would make!

I can't wait to not have to lie and say I "forgot" my bathing suit.

I can't wait to not cry in the changing rooms because I've gone up another size (or two)

I can't wait to NOT shop at Victoria's Secret, Aeropostale, Hollister and all the other places who couldn't accomodate my plus size body. If you can't bring yourself to clothe my plus size body, you don't get my money to clothe my skinny ass either!

I can't wait to not dress like I'm 20 years older than I really am

I can't wait to not have to put deodorant anywhere but my underarms

I can't wait to not have to tell my husband to slow down a little bit while we are walking - I'm going to make him keep up with me :)

I can't wait to not feel tired all the damn time!! - That's my biggest one!!

p.s. I absolutely love this thread!

I can't wait to shop in the regular size department and not in a section with big and tall or portly in the name.

I can't wait for my husband to be able to pick me up.

That is a good one it was one of mine and now that I am there I have him do it at random just because he can and I am funny like that:)

While I'm waiting to be sleeved' date=' I constantly look forward to being healthy and slim. There are many daily reminders of why I decided to embark on this adventure.

We've all had moments where we think to ourselves, "Oh, I can't wait to NOT have to do this anymore!" For instance, having to "go by feel" to buckle up your seatbelt in the car, having to wake up to turn over in bed, sweating continuously...

What are some of yours?[/quote']

No more seatbelt extender on an airplane, that's mine. Just took a vacation with my husband and it's such a humiliating thing. I kept telling myself this should be the last time

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
