juditha 48 Posted March 21, 2013 Like getting on a bus and not seeing the look of dread on peoples face at the thought i might sit next too them.. Like sitting on a bus and not have my body "spill out" of my seat onto the person next to me. Like going in to a clothes shop and not having little or no choice ... Or having to ask if they have it in a bigger size ( even in a "big girls" shop. ) Like eating out and not finishing everything on my plate... And the plate of my husband/ kids... Like getting a hug from my kids and they ate so so happy that their arms now go all the way around me!! ... What small things make u happy? 1 nienie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congrats on you successful weight loss and so happy your life has gotten easier! My surgery date was March 5,13 and have to say I have been on so much pain in my incisions I lost track of my goals to a healthier life. Your post was a wonderful reminder. Btw--so far loving the feeling of my double chin getting smaller. It's noticeable when I lay down with my IPad and type. God bless!

nienie 113 Posted March 21, 2013 I am a RN in a hospital and I have to say losing weight has given me more energy for my 12 hours shifts. I feel better about myself and am way more positive. I also love that I don't obsess about food anymore and I eat to live not live to eat. There are so many positives from this surgery... 1 monken reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
