It's very comforting to know I'm not alone with all this stuff. I can relate to almost all of them. :unsure: Hopefully someday we wont have these worries anymore! :)

1. People saying "you have such a pretty face" 2. Chub rub 3. Being scared to sit in a chair 4. Getting to restaurants first just in case you can't fit in the seat. 5. Painties rolling down over your roll. 6. The only thing you can buy from Victoria Secrets is perfume and lotion. 7. Standing in the back during pictures. 8. Being embarrassed to be "on top" 9. Everyone at work asking what your ordering for lunch 10. Cute "big girl" clothes are hard to find I could go on and on. I'm hoping to have my surgery in January! Say a prayer for me!
so on point with Victoria secret! Lol!!

1. My 5 year old asking me why I'm not skinny

2. Ankle swelling

3. Always out of breath

4. NEVER in pictures, and if I'm in the background of one I delete the evidence

5. MIL calling me fat

6. Being judged by my lunch like I should be eating lettuce only

7. Dreaming of all the clothes I could wear if I was thin, but having to shop in a tiny section with no selection instead of a whole store.

I could go on forever! I've come so far. This is a great thread. How encouraging.

This is tmi' date=' but being intimate with my husband and scared to be on top, I always thought I was hurting him[/quote']

I feel the same way. He looks uncomfortable and I ask if he's okay and he says yes... but I don't know if I believe him. This I WONT miss.

I remember a time where a girl I thought I was going to marry left me for a guy 100lbs lighter. I'm not going to miss that crap at all. She left me for a skinny little guy...maybe one day I'll be the skinny guy in the story.

I don't think you would want someone that shallow Justin, your better than that

      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.
