This should make you laugh...



Recommended Posts

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:

And, I agree....you look lovely and you've done a wonderful job in becoming a loser!!

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.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
