The annoying new habits that came to be with my sleeve...

I annoy my wife with " feel my leg, feel my arm. Isn't it strong?" Or " look at how roomy the size 32 Levi are." Lol!

Your "leg"?

Lmao cuz I can totally relate. When I got skinny from being banded, I would ask complete strangers what size clothes they wore so I could better visualize what I looked like. Now that I'm a fatty again until my sleeve in 2 weeks, I keep asking my husband "do you think I'll look as skinny as that lady?, do you think my ass will be saggy? Look at my ass! Look at it!! Now do you think it will look like hers?" The crazy train makes frequent stops around here.

Oddly enough' date=' some people have considered me quite annoying in the past. I have no idea why as I am pretty darn close to perfection. That said, my sleeve has has taught me some really cool tricks that seem to get on the nerves of my family, for reasons I just cannot fathom. First, they seem to barely tolerate my habit of hopping on and off my scale 5-10 times several times a day and shouting out, "Now I've lost 2 ounces, now I've gained 4 ounces, this time I am down 3, ooops, now I am up 4!!!" or whatever my undecisive scale seems to want to weigh me at. Instead of getting a new, more accurate scale, I consider this step exercise and the freedom to choose my weight for the day. They are especially unamused at my insistence of telling them how much a "movement" might have weighed if I am lucky enough to have one. My second bad habit is stalking strangers through the store, staring at their arses, and asking whomever with me if mine is as big/small/round/high/perky/droopy as whomever my current victim's might be. One kid finds it creepy, the other (who obviously loves me more) is much more helpful but often runs around to look at my arse then the other person's causing me to wonder if anyone might be noting this strange behavior. Mr.Lipstick has taken to asking me if I care if he checks out the hot blonde/brunette/random Hooter girl/etc. instead of the middle aged mom that much more resembles my persona. My newest habit is picking up random pairs of pants at home or the store and and exclaiming, "LOOK! LOOK! LOOK!! Can you believe that MY ASS fits in these??!!?!?!!! THEY LOOK SO SMALLLLLLL!! I must go try them on right now just to make sure." as if my ass suddenly grew six inches since taking off said pants 5 minutes ago. I constantly amaze myself. Every single day. I love this sleeve.[/quote']

ROFLMBO!!! This has had me rolling!!! Too hilarious!!

Lips, thx so much for posting this, a great laugh for the day. My 20 yr old son is my mealtime taskmaster: don't eat too fast! Take smaller bites! You've had enough, you'll get sick!

Lipstick, pmsl, could just imagine this!

I love that it is all still so exciting for you and that you aren't laid back about your NSVs. I wake up every day with a smile on my face - and some days I just dance round the house cos I love my sleeve and cos I can now dance without a bit of me seizing up

Oh my Gawd! It's like Christmas morning every freaking day!!! I giggle like a school girl about my new self all day every day. I am ecstatic.

My ass fits in all those places so much better also! The only problem I'm having with my ass is instead of having junk in my trunk, I now have a Shar-pai butt. It's all wrinkled and saggy, but it does fit in a size 16.....
