Recommended Posts

lwilliam you are gorgeous! Stop that!

I won't miss my ankles always popping

Shopping in plus size

Not being able to buy cute underwear

Lack of sex drive

Fatigue

Not being able to do the things I want physically

And of course my double chin!

I won't miss......

*My pants having holes in the thighs due to them rubbing together.

*That wonderful musical that my thighs like to play when I am wearing certain pants ( I work in a quiet office environment so it's embarrassing).

*My lack of a sex drive

*Never scheduling vacations at the beach, because the thought of my thighs exposed makes me cringe.

I also won't miss doing the "fat lady shirt stretch"... ya know putting your arms inside your shirt and stretching it out so it's not sticking to your belly....

I won't miss doing step aerobics WITHOUT the step.

I won't miss having to stop and rest after two flights of stairs.

I won't miss being a human dam in the bathtub.

Wow, these are all so true!

I won't miss:

  • my double chin
  • not feeling pretty or sexy
  • absolutely THE FAT GIRL SHIRT STRETCH, so funny
  • my back fat! I had a Tummy Tuck in 2006 and my front is just ok, but I have back rolls, sexy
  • sweat under boobs
  • my pants flipping or rolling over when I sit down if they're not jacked up to my boobs
  • being "bigger" than my husband

I could go on :)

I won't miss :

not being able to sit on the floor to play with my grandchildren

not being able to visit zoos or museums or amusement parks without renting a scooter

not being able to buy clothes off the rack in a normal store

not being able to walk longer than 10 minutes

not being able to......

well, just not being able to period. This excess weight has stopped me from doing a lot of things for a very long time.

As I was looking at my swollen feet last night and sweet talking my husband into massaging them' date=' I started thinking this is one of the things I won't miss after losing weight. What are yours?

1). The swollen feet and ankles of course

2) the red mark around my waist from wearing elastic top pants

3) under boob sweat

4) the dents I get in my thighs from sitting in a too small chair with arms[/quote']

OMG word to all of these.

I'm still on the waiting list for surgery.. But I dream all the time..

1) To have more of a sex drive. 1a) to feel sexy for my husband.

2) Being able to buy nice 'normal' sized clothing and lingerie!

3) Being able to really play with my kids and get on the floor without being sore 5 minutes later.

4) Not being scared I won't fit in booths in certain restaurants.

5) Not having to worry about dieting anymore and the guilt that fallows after you have 'failed'.

6) Not to be paranoid that people are looking at you because you are so HUGE!

7) I want to live a long time for my kids and being the weight I am I'm scared that wont happen.. So having that feeling gone would be great!

There are many more. Maybe I'll write a book lol

      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.
