Oh my gosh I dream of having thigh gap!!! I've got like mighty goose or turkey drumstick thighs. Skinnier toward the knees, then very thick at the top. LOL.

CONGRATS you look great!

I got some gaping at my mid thigh when I put my knees together, which was odd because I don't think that's ever happened.

And upper, inner thigh sag is SO GROSS!!! It's like I've got some odd 90 year old guy's skin for a lapel for my junk... how's that for a visual! (maybe it's not THAT bad... but that's how I feel about it)

I almost did, but let it slide! ;-) Especially since I'm the one complaining about laughing at work!

TY Matt! I was all set to thank you, the spit out my coffee when I read about your new lapels for your old man balls! I'm putting that right up there on the shelf next to my hairy chocolate waterbed image so I can take them down and amuse myself for hours on end!

Gawd I :780_sparkling_heart: you. You crack me up!!! ROFL!!!

So on a more sober note...yeah. That weirdness you describe about the thigh sag. I swear after my initial losses that area looks like I had two ginormous elephant balls right there. I called it my scrotum. Ha! And now that I'm losing more, the scrotum is shrinking--I never thought it would. I thought that was going to be my new fate. "Congratulations Fluffy, you're now thin and in normal weight bracket, tell her what she's won, Johnny!" And Johnny would say, "You've won a ginormous pair of elephant balls! And for fun you will now go through life with these ginormous elephant testicles pasted onto your thighs just below your See You Next Tuesday!"

But now they are shrinky-dinkin slightly and are now terrifyingly like OLD elephant balls, cuz they are very crepey and thin/wrinkly skin. bahahahaha *snort* Good times.

TGIF!

Glad I can provide some levity! And that's great with the shrinkage, and this might be the only time you'll see a man say they are hoping for some shrinkage in that area LOL!!!

At least you all don't have to deal with body parts "touching down" when you sit on the toilet.... I leaned forward once to get something from the cabinet and was greeted with a very cold surprise.

Also,

My program gives the only information or the only way that is correct to lose weight with bariatric sugery.

My favorites have become:

I'm _____ weeks out from surgery, doing EVERYTHING perfectly, it's not working

&

I'm _____ weeks post op and I'm tired of the meal plan/lifestyle changes I agreed to

I expect MY surgeon gave me his number and the recording says it's no longer in service, should I go to the ER?

And don't laugh but it actually happened to an acquaintance of mine. Turned out she couldn't read his writing and used the wrong area code anyway. Obviously the doctor and her deserved each other, and,it was a different speciality then we contend with.

Adding to the list.

Necroposting.
The whole, reviving long dead posts by answering them for no reason. Like, answering a post that was created in 2010, for a user that hasn't logged in since 2012... those posts should remain dead posts.

I almost wish posts with no updates for a certain amount of time (like years) should be locked for archival and prevent future postings for that one topic.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
