I've always been self conscious about my weight. Now, finally at a size where I'm finally feeling good about myself...I've been receiving a few comments. Several people who haven't seen me in a while have asked if I broke my nose. I asked my husband about this and he said that since my face is thinner, my nose looks a litter bigger on my face!!! Now I have a complex about my nose!!! It never ends!!!:wink_smile:

I know plenty of folks with "larger" noses and without exception, their noses are the endearing quality that makes them who they are! Sorry, but I love a face with CHARACTER. A beauty queen symmetrical face to me is one of the most boring visions on the planet. Ho Hum. Puts me to sleep. Give me a lopsided grin, a bump on a nose, funny dimples. THAT makes a person their unique and beautiful self. I will ALWAYS gravitate to those people first. They radiate interest.

Oh man, you know...the same thing is going to happen to me! When I was in junior high all I did was complain about my huge nose. The fatter I got the less I noticed. LOL Oh well, you definitely are GORGEOUS with your "broken nose". lol I'm glad you have a good sense of humor!

You could always be ready with a line like "yeah the last person who told me WLS was the easy way out---she looks much worse!!"

I am totally surprised I did not get similar comments----although I think my nose remained large and bumpy throughout my weight gain, and eventual loss, so it looks no different!!! I did have one woman ask me if I had gotten my teeth capped!!!

Here's to those of us who "nose" best!!!

Oh man, I can relate. I've always obsessed more about my nose, than my weight. But now that I've lost weight, I feel so good about my body image, that I don't pay that much attention to my huge nose anymore. However if I had the money, I'd definitely pay for a rhinoplasty over a TT any day. But I'm not doing either one. I'm the way I am and that's it! And DH loves me no matter what size or shape I am so I'm content.

      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.
