funny body shape



Recommended Posts

after reading several posts about body shape, apple, pear, hourglass...i decided that none of those really describe my shape. as i was getting out of the shower this morning it came to me!

i am the shape of a snake that swallowed a basketball. but only if you are viewing from the front, as i have no rear! quite funny i think. thinner up top and the legs, larger in the belly. my husband didnt think i was very funny as i was explaining it to him, but i sure got a good laugh. which for me is a change because it bothers me so much!

anyone else have a humorous body shape explaination?

I think i would describe my funny body shape as a pregnant spider! Thin in the face and legs. I carry all my weight from my boobs down to my bikini line.

While I'm probably considered an "apple" I describe myself as a Tomato on toothpicks.

I've got great legs...but up on top...not so good. My husband would beg to differ because he likes my you-know-what's, but my stomach, ugh. Lord have mercy. I feel like I swallowed a tire.

May 13th cannot come soon enough.

Lol at the snowman....

The larger I get, the more pear shaped I am, but growing up I was always told I had a 24 hours glass figure. Curvy, but I bit bigger than the other girls. I always took it as a compliment.

      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.
