Skinny sex! Aside from being healthy and all. :)

What are you looking forward too post surgery?

I literally almost spit out my Water when I read this...love it! For me:

  1. yup, the skinny sex would be nice
  2. paying less for clothes
  3. being able to fit more clothes in a suitcase when I travel
  4. my flexibility back - I was more flexible at a smaller size (see #1)
  5. more energy
  6. people not recognizing me (I'm really social so it would be fun to spark up a conversation with friends I haven't seen in a while and them not realize its me at first)

-Shopping in regular stores

-Walking more then a block with out getting winded

-Not sweating!! This might be the number one thing!! Lol

-SHOES! Especially boots!!

-Keeping up with people when I walk

- Fitting in a single seat on the bus/train

- Not being afraid to fly because you think you might be asked to buy two seats

- Amusment park rides- though I have a horrible fear of heights anyway lol but just to be able to if I want to

One week until all these things will become a reality for me!

Yesss! Have very similar looking forward to not having to be so self conscious about oh now I'm not even gonna try going on that ride for fear of the embarrassment of the seat belt not fitting or the over head thin not locking ;( ... And sittin comfortably in booths at restraunts && yes BOOTS!!! It's the small things ohhh and hell Yeahhh cheaper prices I love my torrid ! But that place does damage to my card lmaoo. So being able to shop at stores for cheaper prices ahhhh seems so crazy that all this can be possible very soon! I get sleeved dec 15 and I'm so excited!!! However my top reason is in hope that with weight loss I will begin my period sadly I'm 20 and have not had that yet I have done several test checking for parts and test seem to give no negative answers but really no answers at all. Nothing seems to be abnormal hormones are fine parts are in place it's just not happening I am hoping and doctors believe in this loss I will kick start it! This means so much to me as yes I am young no children are not on my mind right now but definely in the figure I absolutely love kids an the thought of this not being possible scares me and gets me so down .. I am praying this helps.. I'm overall so excited to start this new chapter ! Hopeful :)

Good luck! Sending positive thoughts your way and I hope your able to have a regular cycle after surgery! From what I've heard surgery is a life changer, many people with PCOS (not sure if that is your issue or not) have been completely cured of it. Sending you good thoughts!

Being able to buy clothes at Garage Sales and Resale shops. The selection is usually better in small to medium sizes. if you were a size 20 or above you can usually forget about even looking.

Just being able to fit in the world again. In booths, in the little turnstile gates to get into businesses, in those horrid waiting room chairs.

I've never been a clothes horse, I like shoes but generally just wear the same pair over and over.

But I want to buy a cheap office chair and now wonder how many weeks it will last before my fat ass breaks it :)

Oh and I want to jump and actually come off the ground :)

      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.
