GeauxForIt 659 Posted September 13, 2012 Now that I'm getting close to surgery (I'm waiting on approval from Aetna) I find that I'm hating my fat body even more than before. I guess being preoccupied with how I'm hoping to feel and look "after" has me wanting even more to escape this gross, jiggly, HEAVY body. I wish I could unzip it and get OUT of it!!! Anyone else feeling the same? 4 jrabbit81, Questions?, DanaInNewOrleans and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PEvette 297 Posted September 13, 2012 Instead of hating your current state.....start to praise God for your future state...stay hopful...when I was in my final week I was content, excited, and nervous all at the same time.... 3 danyelleb, krusher109 and DanaInNewOrleans reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gaye jarvis 751 Posted September 13, 2012 Don't feel bad for wanting to unzip and step out of the old body into the new, I am 3 months post op and I'm down 72 lbs, I started my journey at 334 lbs and am now 262 and I still tell my husband at least 5 times a day that I just want to wake up tomorrow and weigh 175 lbs and be done with all of this mess! In case you haven't guessed, I have no patience 1 Barisaxylady reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holly5.3 423 Posted September 13, 2012 I feel the same way! Like the real me-who I used to be- has had enough with being taken over by this food-addicted obese outer person! While I'm practicing positive thinking, I still get "mad" at myself for getting like this and at food for being so irresistable! I can and will resist- the surgery is just the answer to my orators once snd for all! I can't wait!! Hang in there-a year from now we'll be like 10 years younger! Yaaaa!

GeauxForIt 659 Posted September 13, 2012 I'm so glad to know that I'm not alone!! I'm so ready to make this change and leave this fat, unhealthy body behind. I want to start feeling better and know that I'm getting healthier and healthier! I'm ready to DO this thing and sweat it out and prove to myself that I'm strong and steel-willed and beautiful!! Not just on this particular issue, but this journey as a whole. The people here, for the most part, are supportive and caring and genuine, and i have a feeling I would lose my mind without this forum!! 1 DanaInNewOrleans reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ima Loser 197 Posted September 13, 2012 I feel EXACTLY the same way... Lately I have been feeling realy down on my body and finding even more flaws all the time... Its funny becuase right before I opened this I got a company wide email about our Annual Softball game asking who was playing and who was being a "cheerleader" I was litterally texting my husband saying how at next years game (in OCtober) I hopefully (fingers crossed) I won't be too embarassed to play! Lately everytime I look at myself I am just disgusted! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
