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



Recommended Posts

Oh' date=' and I will be thrilled when I'm reviewed fairly at work! It's like fat people are just automatically assumed to be lazy slackers. I consistently do more work, and better quality work, than some of my thin and younger coworkers. Yet they always get better performance reviews, and I'm always told to take more initiative to do more things in the lab. Even when I test this and do EXACTLY the amount of work another analyst does, and take the exact same amount of down time, the boss always comes out and tells me to go do stuff. I'm so sick of trying so much harder than everyone else just to be thought of as barely as good as anyone else.[/quote']

I totally Agree!

LOL i can't wait not having to stop and think if me and the kids together exceed the weight capacity on the Water rides at the park.....SPPLASHHHHHH my ass might not pop the tube this time

Omg I can so relate. I went to a water park a few years ago. Went on a slide that's a big open area. Start at the top of one side, go down then up almost to the edge on the other side. No walls no net nothing. I lied about my weight to go on it. Then when I came within a foot of the far edge I was seriously having a panic attack that I was gonna keep going off the edge. My 2 girls didn't go nearly that high. I got off thinking that was the stupidest thing I had ever done. The weight limit was there so the forward motion didn't drive you up and over that side. I haven't gone back to the water park since.

I can't wait to not feel like everyone is staring when I look at clothing in any store.

RIGHT! My daughter wears a small junior size and when I'm shopping for her, I feel the eyes on me, like "They ain't gonna fit you!"

I can't wait to not have to kid myself...if I know I'm fat...so does everyone else! I can't hide my gut no matter what I wear or how I sit. And at the water park, no matter how much I think there are people looking at me....I'm sure i used to cause more attention by trying to hide the natural tube around my waist. LOL

Oh boy I could go on and on with this thread!

-To be able to sit on an airplane and not feel squished or not need a seatbelt extender (I actually bought my own)

-To be able to get on a plane and be fearful that I'm going to be asked to buy another seat :/

-To be able to fit on a roller coaster (nothing more embarrassing than the ride employees moving me to multiple seats)

-To be able to go into a restaurant and be afraid of not being able to fit in the booth

-To be able to go to a football/baseball game and not need an aisle seat

-To be able to be in a crowded room and not say to myself "wow, I'm the fattest person in here"

I can't wait until getting dressed isn't a crap shoot. Can I point my toe and get it into the leg hole of my underwear on the first try? Will I need to throw my pants on the floor and kick my way into them? Will I dislocate my knee trying to get my socks on? Funny but not so funny. Someday I'll laugh at it! Today's not that day...

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
