Things I will not miss...

I won't miss having to put deodorant in places not meant for deodorant. I won't miss feeling embarassed to eat in front of people. I especially won't miss being the "fat girl" everywhere I go.

This afternoon I got a Facebook message from a friend in the bank I work at. An older gentleman I talk to all the time was asking after me. Nice right? Not really... he asked if I was out "having my baby"!!!!! Damn' date=' I am glad I had surgery... Lol[/quote']

Ouch!

She's got an evil sense of humor and she knows I'd laugh. :-) I much prefer to laugh at her as we watch the surveillance video of her falling out of her chair. Lol

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.

I hope your surgery went well! And I thought ur post was awesome if you don't mind I'd like to add a few myself......

Things I do not miss or do not take now for granted.......

- seriously analyzing something I'm may try to sit on and think....will my hips fit and if they do will it support my weight and than just end up giving up and stay standing..

- trying to get behind the wheel of my car with out losing a serious war...wether it's me fighting to get behind the steering wheel or if I sit far enough back to fit behind it can my arms now reach it lol....and than we follow that up with the seat belt war lol....

- even though I've always been a shower kind of person taking a nice hot soak every once in a while would of been nice but yeah these hips either wouldn't fit or ended up stuck...

-and I absolutely positively can't stand the whole she's big but she has a pretty face statements.....

-being able to sit on the floor without my legs going numb from the pan weight resting on my thighs cutting off serious circulation....and we won't even discuss trying to than get up off the floor.....

- being hot 24/7 I don't care if its was snowing outside I'd be still either sweating or somewhat comfortable

[Mtjoymom3 21]

I hope to NEVER again hear the phrase 'you have such a pretty face' ugh!!!!

I couldn't agree with u more....if I never hear that statement again it'll be to soon and boy if I do happen to hear someone say it regardless of who it pertains to......they are in for a royal thrashing lol

[Mtjoymom3 21]

I won't miss being too big to ride a roller coaster' date=' ride a horse, shop clearance anywhere, my uncle giving me unwanted weight loss advice, my hubby not bring able to pick me up and most of all my children bring embarrassed of me.[/quote']

Amen! Especially when other little kids can be so brutal....and that was one of my biggest fears with my boys I didn't want my boys being teased because of me!

Get ready!!! It's BIZARRE being the cold one all the time...I'm flying from Little Rock to Miami tomorrow and am carrying a jacket...in June....cuz I know I'll be freezing at the airport . And it's not 'I'm a little chilly' it's 'I'm freezing to freaking death and miserable' (but so much better then sweating!!!!!)

Also I still have 60 pounds to lose and laugh because my car seat is so close to the steering wheel now

Thank you . I'm PreOp. My surgery is July 3rd. I'm trying to stay strong and remember why I'm doing this life altering surgery. I've never known what skinny feels like. I've always been overweight. I worry that this is going to change be completely and will my husband still love me afterwards? I guess I'm just feeling emotional tonight. I appreciate your kind words though and I will strive to be powerful!

I won't miss my hip circulation being cut-off, requesting seatbelt extenders, or fearing that persons sitting next to me will insist on lowering the armrests, in those tiny jetliner seats.
