Perhaps the word "fight" should be removed from this description?

Gripe, complain, moan, debate, rant and rave might work?

Eek.. I might not have gone down the 'fight' route, Banderella!

Might be seen as a bit 'Band-waggonish' :blink:

It's early and I got a terrible night's sleep and I pulled something in my back stretching this morning. I'm ready to cry, bitch and moan.

I have this new small body body and am having trouble finding cute summer dresses to buy. I wear size 4 in pants but need smaller in dresses. Went shopping only to find very limited supply of size 2 dresses. And the ones I found were low cut of v neck, not flattering for my A cup.

I have two meetings at work today. I am going to have to keep it toned down today or I'm going to make comments I'm sure I'll regret. Being tired and in pain is just not a good combination for me.

Actually, I think I will cut out early and go get a massage. That would most likely be the best decision as I sit here and think about it. A little self care is good for the soul.

I think you may be surprised about how people feel about your A cup. (Hey, we're not in The powder Room, so this gives me license to talk about them) IMO, one of the aspects women identify themselves is by their cup size. Which, is understandable. Then, when undergoing such dramatic weight loss and therefore, change in cup size, they see having a smaller cup as having a deficiency. Myself, and I know many other men (and women) really do go by the old adage of, "More than a mouthful is a waste." Especially in a summer dress.

I am not disparaging those with larger cups, I am just one who likes the look of a well proportioned lady wearing clothes which accent their features.

I'm used to it. Even when I was obese I was a member of the IBTC. But thanks for the good word, I'll keep that in mind while shopping for push-up bras

      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.
