BBBarbie 18 Posted May 27, 2013 Can't wait to not hear "...but you have such a pretty face" said to me directly as if it's a compliment! Can't wait to rock the fashion and styles I truly love and that's fitting for a trendy 28-year old girl! Can't wait to not be the "fat friend". UGH!! The "pretty face" **** can kiss my ass!! LOL Total peeve. It's the worst back handed "compliment" ever. My whole life I heard this! If I never hear it again it'll be too soon. I pretty much agree with all of yours. 4 mariamitani, Kalimomof3, Brenda0928 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

junebug38 13 Posted May 27, 2013 So many things! To not always be the fattest person in the room To be able to travel internationally again and not immediately stand out as the "fat American" (or have people point, laugh, make rude comments) To shop and buy regular sized clothes To go on dates with successful men that don't have fat fetishes (and find someone to marry!) To learn to scuba dive! To not be afraid of breaking a folding chair, fit in a seat, etc. To really live and not let my weight hold me back!! 2 ninanew and Brenda0928 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barisaxylady 154 Posted May 28, 2013 When does it stop I'm 3 months post op Hmm. Can't remember when the daily noise stopped but I had a bite of my husbands burger last night and my stomach howled for a while over it (I've got to remember my sleeve doesn't like ground meat, it really was just a small bite to taste too!) and I'm 8 months post op but I'm sure everybody is different. As long as its not painful, I wouldn't worry about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TexasRed1978 17 Posted May 28, 2013 TMI but to not fear crushing my hubby during 'adult activities' One of the reasons I decided to get this surgery now is because with the last 20-25 pounds I've gained, for the first time, I started to worry about the crushing my husband thing. It's making me self conscious an inhibited during adult activities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's making me self conscious an inhibited during adult activities.[/quote'] Understandable I felt like that when my husband and I were the same weight with me being only 5'2 and him being 6'2 I never thought I would have to worry about being too big for him but when the scale climbed and we were the same weight @ over 220 lbs it was all I could think about the bedroom was just not the same.... It will be better for you I now weigh less than my hubs by over 50lbs even though he too has lost a little weight and I have definitely noticed a change in our "activities" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
