1) I have only told my wife, kids, mother-in-law, and 1 of my brothers. Everyone else that asks, thinks I'm working with a nutritionist that has me on a tailored diet and exercise plan.

2) my parents have no idea that I've had this surgery

3) I don't miss my fat clothes because let's face it, fat people are just supposed to hide in their homes and not go in public, so why should there be fashionable choices for us?

4) I still weight 270, but I feel like a sexy beast now

5) I need to do more strength training because I realized I'm not as strong as I thought, I just had really good leverage. Lol. Can't move things with just my weight anymore.

I confess that I wish I could have eaten Mexican or Chinese take away badly today!

I confess that I wish I could drink my coke zero like I used to because I drank more then and just get annoyed with trying to get my fluids in.

I confess I still haven’t left my house on my own I only leave when someone will drive me to my destination.

I confess I have eaten chips (us kind not uk kind crisps to us) not whole bags like 3 pringles, but I did get a packet of cheese curls ate 4 and sucked all the cheese flavour off the rest and tossed the soggy mush in the bin (time of the month I was always a starchy person its still the same!)

I confess I am sad my bust is disappearing at a very fast rate and I kinda hate them right now.

  • I confess that I lie to my husband when he wants to go out to eat and I don't. I tell him I don't feel like it. The truth is, I have better things to do than to sit and watch him and the boys make 5 trips to the buffet.
  • I confess that I am secretly amused when my husband eats a big plate of carbs and fat... I just think "Keep going skinny man, one day you wont fit into that chair".

I confess that your post made me sad. You have our support!

My other confessions include:

I confess that I have gone down all the sizes in my closet and i finally hit the smallest size and they no longer fit (size 12) so I literally have NOTHING that fits. Sounds like a good problem to have, but it has me very depressed.

I confess that I get irritated when people tell me to buy new clothes because my clothes are too big. If it offends them so much they can buy me some.

I confess I don't want to spend the money on clothes for fear I will not be able to wear them long. Plus size 12's are too big, but 10's are snug. What can I wear?

I confess that this depression has made me snacky and self sabotaging on my diet. I ate Cookies today and FRIES yesterday.

I confess I am worried when I get in these funks that I will go back to old habits because I don't feel worthy.

I confess I love the people on VST because they are always willing to help and listen. It's like free therapy.

I confess I love this thread. Still feel yucky in my clothes though.

Yes. Yes. And yes. I may be mourning my clothes more than food.

I confess:

I'm mourning my clothes too. Clothes shopping=no fun for me. I actually nervous about shopping for new one's, smaller size or not. I'm also sad I'm 14 days post op & returned to work I'm my same ole size, like a 50lb miracle was supposed to happen in 14 days. Nevermind I've lost 19lbs.

I confess:

I'm afraid I'll never have another normal bowel movement again.

I confess:

I'm more obsessed w/what I put in my mouth & the scale in my bathroom more than I ever was before surgery.

I confess:

I'm so intimidated by food & nervous about feeling bad, I just don't care to branch out past my Protein drinks. I'm scared.

But I'm very grateful for the confessions, & all your honesty. This app & u guys are a HUGE help! <3

      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.
