anyone losing self confidence with weight loss?



Recommended Posts

I've lost weigh in my boobs and now wear a B Cup. But heXX, I don't really miss them. It's a lot easier on my back now. LOl and I have no curves except where my belly use to be and it looks like a muffin top or a volcano. Don't know if I will get PS for it later, but my clothes look really good on me......I am more concerned about the excess skin on my face right now......:( We will see later on..... :)

"only 2 sizes" is WONDERFUL and right on target. Every 20 pounds is one dress size...so you're progress is right where it should be :-)

My weight is perfectly proportioned all over my body. The plus side of this (see what I did there?) is that at 264 pounds, I could wear a comfortable size 20 at 5'3". The downside is that after 40 pounds lost, because I am losing it allllll over, I have "only" shrunk 2 sizes (and the 16Ws are snug, something I don't love the look of) and only one person who didn't know about this surgery has commented on my progress.

Weight loss gets rid of the fat but doesn't change your body type. I will ALWAYS be short waisted and big-butted/extremely hippy. I lose weight from the top of my head down to the top of my thighs. (Luckily I have very pretty calves) You can focus on the negatives but to what end? I am celebrating my face not being such a marshmallow, I am excited that shirts are fitting better and know that it will be a long time before the butt/hips give me any satisfaction at all. Try to find things about yourself that you like. For me it is my calves and my nose, which may be weird but everybody has to find their thing to get them through.

I am still pre-op, but read a lot of forums and many folks report that they lose in their bust, face and arms first. The ONLY thing I enjoy about being fat is that I have a bust, so that will probably be the first thing to go for me! LOL

      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.
