I confess I am enjoying that my clothes are comfortable.

I confess I wish I could free myself of the scale.

I confess I am really enjoying sex...and so is my husband.

I confess I feel really bad for people who don't have the support of their spouse because I am convinced my husband is my personal angel sent to be my rock.

I confess I have researched plastics even though I am not even close to goal.

I confess I could easily eat over 1500 calories if not careful and mindful and don't know how some say they have a hard time getting 800. My nutritionist has me between 800-1000 and I have to log every bite.

I confess I also would like to run into all of my exes when I'm thin!

I confess I did this surgery against my husband's wishes and I didn't care that he was against it. (He's totally supportive now)

I confess I still drink wine and did 3 weeks out

I confess I don't even miss food. I can't even think if something I would want to splurge on.

I confess I wish I would lose faster! I feel like I went through so much with this surgery, and I want immediate results darn it!

  • I confess that I confessed several months ago when I was only about a month out, but now that I'm five months out I have new confessions.
  • I confess that at a month out, I thought I had these cravings kicked, that I'd never use food to self-medicate again etc. after all, I had no desire for food anymore.
  • I confess that at five months out, the mental part of this journey is rearing it's ugly head again. It's a struggle not to give in to temptations. So far I'm doing pretty well at saying "no" to myself, but I'm scared about being able to do this forever.
  • I confess that I LOVE my sleeve! I LOVE that I get full after just a few bites. I always wanted to be able to eat a small portion and be satisfied by it. Now I am!
  • I confess that there are people I avoided seeing because I had gained so much weight and I'm looking forward to being able to socialize again without being so self-conscious.
  • I confess there are certain people who hurt me in my past that I am looking forward to seeing now that I've lost so much weight.
  • I confess that I so badly want to get into the "normal" BMI range, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much just in case it never happens.
  • I confess that I love this thread :)

Having just been in with my therapist yesterday, the whole body dysmorphia thing is tricky. Even in photos (the ones I've taken) I can't see it. I wish I could! I'd like to see the numbers on the scale reflected in the mirror, or at least in my head, where it really matters.

The numbers are moving for me and I just convince myself that I will eventually see it! I'm very happy regardless!

- I confess that I was sad when I heard the McRib was back. I really want one.

- I had a chocolate chip cookie yesterday

- I am afraid to loss my hair

- I am slave to the scale' date=' but now only weigh myself once a week every Friday, starting last week.

- My husband gets on my Nerves telling me what to eat, while he is eating pizza 3 days a week.

- and the worst of all I didnt tell my mom about the surgery, because i did not want to hear her mouth about what I need to do to loss weight, although she smokes a pack a day.

(Sleeved Nov 7, 2012, Pre Surgery weight =312, Surgery =weight 300, Weight as of 11/30/12= 282!!! ) [/quote']

We sound so similar in everything. I was sleeved on November 12 and my highest weight was 312 like yours. I'm 280 today... And I didn't tell my mom about the surgery for the same reasons... Who also smokes a pack a day haha

I have a new confession...

I confess that I am getting really freakin annoyed with Aetna, as it's been 3-1/2 wks since my surgeon submitted. They said all was in order & now they are nit picking. So I'm just about ready to throw my hands in the air & say screw it, go do that veggie juice fast from the Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, guy's documentary. Ugh. I was hoping initially to be sleeved by October, now I'm not even sure it will be before next summer.

I confess

I love weighing less than my husband now. He has also started watching what he eats.

I want to say to those who are waiting to feel sexy and confident, to feel it now just the way you are.

I love discovering sugar free vanilla and carmel skinny lattes and even better finding an inexpensive latte machine, so i can make them at home.I look forward to this every afternoon.

Almonds is my new snack.

My hair is falling out a lot now. Clumps of it even though I take Biotin, all my Vitamins and all of my Protein. I had thick hair so wasn't too worried about losing some of it, but now getting a little worried. I wonder where you can get wigs like Kim has on housewives show.

I confess that I love Pork rinds and the go down way to easy.

I confess I never get in enough Protein or Water.

I confess that I have a new love for walking.

I confess I hate to watch my family eat, it makes me sick to my stomach.

I confess I step on the scale every morning.

I confess that I hate it when someone tells me how skinny I am, because I am still 225lbs and far from skinny!

I confess I wish my husband would tell me he was proud of me for loosing 50+ pounds instead of him telling me how much weight he has gained.

I confess that I am scared of failure even though I am only 3 months postop and see results every day.

I confess that some days it is just easier to be unlikeable, and I like it that way.

I confess I have a new respect for my fat friends, because I know what its like to be fat and what it's like now to be lighter.

I have yet to confess so here goes:

- that I am so excited and joyful to be be losing weight and getting to a goal weight that I have never seen before(other than on my way up).

- that I am deathly afraid and scared to be at this goal weight(or firstly under 200 pounds).

- that I don't really know what this fear is except that what do I do when I get to goal

- that I feel sad for other fat people that don't/can't have this surgery

- that I am afraid of new relationships because to me I will always be the "fat" person that they really will never know.

That's all for now....................................

      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.
