terry1118 1,274 Posted May 28, 2013 My surgery is day after tomorrow. I'm not nervous about it but I am a little worried I may have forgotten to do something to prepare for it. So to distract myself I am playing a little game called 'Things I will not miss'. These are only SOME of the things I will not miss: - clueless people saying 'Congratulations! When are you due?' (Really people?! I am 53 years old!) - buying clothes whose only redeeming quality is that they fit. - Rashes from sweating - back and knee pain - snoring (I have a feeling my hubby won't miss this one either) - pretending to wear a seatbelt that doesn't... quite... reach. - watching from the sidelines while every one else has fun. 16 hellokitty, LessofKat, jhbean and 13 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nel 189 Posted May 29, 2013 I won't miss: Being the fattest one in the office. I won't miss feeling self conscious when I walk in the room or the comments like "you have SUCH a pretty face". won't miss looks in restaurants or having the booth seats where my stomach touches the table. Ugh. I won't miss hiding myself behind clothes. 6 Shauna29, Mtjoymom3, Eroper6 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

futuremrsparker 288 Posted May 29, 2013 A lady I work with (trying to be kind) keeps saying "oh you're going to be a knock out when you're skinnier! You have the most beautiful face" seriously?? She says it every. day. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjroberts417 102 Posted May 29, 2013 I won't miss my thighs rubbing together...especially in the summer. :-) And I won't miss being the hottest person in the room (and not the good kind of hot). Won't miss the moo-moos that fashion designers think all big people must wear. Won't miss trying to tuck my tummy into my pants to look smaller (even though I may be tucking in loose skin). LMBO That's it for now...even though I have millions. :-) 7 karlam29, BBdoodle, Shauna29 and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first time I heard the term I asked my husband if I had those. He said 'don't ask me unless you REALLY want to know'. He was trying to be funny. And I hit an all time low knowing I was just as large and unattractive from the back as I was from the front. Goodbye 'back boobs'!! 4 BBdoodle, kparadisek, bigjimskiki and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am seriously wishing I could burn them, that would be pleasure! That's not really feasible so I'll probably donate them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mylynn1377 93 Posted May 29, 2013 I won't miss having to specially request a table at restaurants because I know I won't fit into a booth. I won't miss doing things like housekeeping and laundry on "good days" because I never know when I'll feel good. I won't miss getting into new vehicles and waiting to see if the seat belt fits or not. I won't miss being the fattest out of my trio of best friends. I won't miss getting all of the super duper plus size clothing catalogs in the mail. Oh and I won't miss having to hunt forever for a bra that is comfortable and actually fits right. 2 Jen_Bach and Shauna29 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
