As for the chubby chaser thing, I always was thrilled to pick up really hot guys. I took me a while to figure out that these guys are only into larger men. I also know women like this. I like my guys a bit smaller and somewhat but not overly fem and asian and latino. Was talking to my gay counsin last month and he is into older hairy somewhat bigger men. We determined it is common for the gays to like oposite of yourself.

On another note, I ll be getting sleeve 10/8 and hoping I'll look hot again. Just renewed my passport and noticed how great I looked 10 years 80 pounds ago. I can't wait but am a bit scared. I like reading about peoples stories. Am hoping the scars are tiny and the loose skin not a big deal. Are scars or loose skin anyones least fav on here?

My scarring is very minimal although I do look like I have two belly buttons now from the incision where they did the removal. I think it is just because I already had some hanging skin in that area after having two C-sections and losing about 20 pounds before surgery. I know other people who have scars that are different than mine, same surgery, same surgeon. The scars are the least of my worries, that being said, I have had several surgeries and have many scars. I do battle with my self esteem and the sagging skin, however, all the time! It is still worth it though, every bit of it!! I figure I didn't look good at 265 pounds when I was naked. I don't look good at 145 pounds naked either but I look DAMN good in my clothes now. I'll take that trade off any day! :) Who's with me?

My favorite thing is how close my hubby and I are when we have sex. Every inch touches and we can kiss without padding in the way. I love that he can pick up all caveman, toss me around and throw me on the bed.

My least favorite is needing to buy a new wardrobe so often. I'm in the public eye, so I can't hide in yoga pants and tees and need to have multiple outfits that are suitable for public.

      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.
