Can't wait

To cross my legs and sit like a lady

To not walk into a room and immediately check if I'm the biggest

To shop in stores that actually carry my style of clothing

To go to dinner and not worry that everyone is watching to see how much I eat

To not hear skinny people tell me how they stay so skinny

To take a full size pic of myself and not stand behind my daughters to cover my body

To show my daughters what determination and strength will give you

To not be the funny girl with the pretty face

And the number one reason: To feel like myself again. Oh and to totally rock my 40's!!

Your awesome.. Same here.

I Can't Wait To Not Have To:

~ avoid posting a picture of myself on Facebook cuz I don't want my high school and college friends to see me

~ feel like the whole bus went down a little when I stepped on (and I'm sure everyone noticed!)

~have sore knees, feet, back

~feel exhausted at the end of a day when I didn't really do much

~see people's surprise when they meet my husband and see what a catch he is

I'm looking forward to:

~showing my husband how much I really love him -- frequently and energetically! ;)

~ being able to shop wherever I want to

~getting into a gym routine and feeling SO STRONG!!!

I can't wait to go zip-lining and have "adult activities" while holding my stomach in order for it not to make that horrible clapping sound. To NOT ever hear "you have such a pretty face" ever again. Not make fun of my own weight! Wear a cute bathing suit and not feel I have to cover myself as soon as I get out of the pool. Become my son's role model about healthy eating and lifestyle.

Not too long ago my high heels had lost their rubber on the bottom. So just looked and sounded like I was walking on nails. I was in my neighbors house talking to her and there was a loud noise. She said "what was that?" I played dumb and said idk. She asked "Lift up your feet?" I said no and after her persisting she saw a hole in her brand new lineolium floor. I wanted to crawl under my bed forever.

I can't wait to use one hand to shave both legs. I can't wait to not be the fat girl at work. I can't wait for boots that come up my calves, dresses that are not like tents and pants that are not too long (I'm 5'3). I cant wait to be able to see all the places I shave. I want to wear sundresses and strappy sandles. I want bras and panties that match. I don't want to be fearful of folding chairs, skinny chairs and other peoples furniture in general. I hate that our couch looks like it does because of me. I want to go to amusement and Water parks. I am just ready to not be fat anymore.

      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.
