"I can't wait to/until..."



Recommended Posts

Some clever person started a thread a while ago about all the things they can't wait to do after surgery and start dropping the pounds. How fun, right!?

I meant to comment on it but got distracted doing god knows what. Needless to say, I cannot locate the original post. So lets start a new one!!

I can't wait to wear shorts and a tank top just because - and feel comfortable in them.

I can't wait to fit into a normal sized....well....anything!

I can't wait until my outside awesomeness matches my inside awesomeness.

I can't wait until painting my toes is not a series of contortionist moves that would rival Cirque Du Soilei routines.

I can't wait to be able to hug me knees.

I can't wait to weigh less than my husband.

I can't wait to share clothes with my sister - she's a size 4 :/

I can't wait to get my whole arm tattooed - not just my forearm because I HATE my upper arm largeness.

I can't wait to do a 10K, like for real.

I can't until a short haircut does not make me look like Rosie O'Donnell (sorry Rosie)

I can't until I am able to be "more adventurous" in the bedroom *wink*

Can't wait to... Be comfortable enough to let someone take a picture.

Can't wait to... Not be afraid I won't fit in an airplane seat. And other people not to be worried they have to sit next to the obese person.

Can't wait to ... Go to an amusement park and be able to ride every ride.

Can't wait to go sky diving. I got turned down last time for being 40 lbs over the max!

Yeah using a beach towel to wrap me up in is not cute. And the scale thing - totally!

I can't wait to throw anything on in the closet and not worry... Does this still fit? Or try to stretch my shirts some before putting them on so that you can't see how high my pants go up on my stomach.

I also can't wait to get more tattoos either. I have my whole right lower leg done as part on a leg sleeve but have not moved too my thigh because of being embarrassed of my weight. I also can't wait to show of my tattoos. I'm so shy about them now because I think people will say "look at that fat chicks tattoos." I love my tattoos but hide due to my weight. I can't wait to be free of my fears.

      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.
