I Get Excited When . . .



Recommended Posts

You know weight loss surgery has changed you when the following begins to happen:

I get excited when it's time to take my beloved caramel calcium chews.< /span>

I get excited when I approach the scale at the doctor's office.

I get excited when trying on sunglasses at the store and they all FIT.

I get excited when it's morning snack time and my chocolate Protein Bar awaits.

I get excited when it's time to go to the gym.

...ok, I made that last one up, but the rest are true!

What post-surgery is exciting for you?

That was hysterical! :D Thanks for the laugh....that will probably be my least favorite one too, but since I haven't been sleeved yet, I will be interested in knowing what other people post! Great thread!

I'm excited when I can physically do something I couldn't before. I am able to bend while gardening- who knew!?!?!? without feeling nauseated.

I get excited when I can do air squats and lunges without turning red.

Also when my 34 jeans fit comfortably, almost loose.

I get excited when I sit in a chair where my hips don't touch each side!!!

I get excited when I have a pile of clothes to take to the second-hand store because they are too big!!!

I get excited when those clothes I have been saving for when I lose weight I am actually able to wear!!

On the same note. Comfortable sitting in a chair at the theater last week and not spilling over. Not having to use a seatbelt extender on an airplane.

I get excited because while my clothes don't fit long, it's not because they are getting too tight like they used to, before surgery.

I get excited because I don't have to fear going places because the chair is too tight.

I get a thrill from being able to easily tie my shoes.

I love waking up every day knowing I have the real potential to be a thin person, knowing I was not controlled by food yesterday, and I won't be today, either.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
