While I've had my fair share of NSVs, I've fallen back into some old habits and just had one of the NSDs (non-scale defeats) that I used to hate so much.

Okay, I'll admit it... as a morbidly obese woman, I used to drop food on my shirt all the time. I notice thin woman rarely have stains on their clothes.

I just ate dinner and did pretty well "bandwise." But as I was putting the food away, I had to shove one more bite in, which left sauce slopped all over my fresh-out-of-the-dryer white t-shirt. Had I only stopped when I was full I'd still be smelling Downy fresh.

Ohhh yes, I remember the days clearly, I still have a while before it is a distant memory, but the "spillages" are getting less and less.

I am famous for having large coffee stains on my shirts and jeans at work. I am hoping for the day when the stuff falls and hits my shoes instead of splatting on the big ole boobies.

My husband always notices when I do that. I wonder if he'll notice that I'm NOT doing it anymore once I get this weight off.

Laura, that's a good point. I'm going to ask my hubby why he never comments on all my clean blouses any more.

This has happened to me way to many times. Ive become quite the joke at work, since I am always wearing a different shirt after lunch- I manage a Gap so am constantly having to buy a shirt after staining the one I wore in- ugh. -Leah

OMG, I am ALWAYS doing this!! You can almost tell what I had for dinner just looking at my shirt. :)

If you eat sitting in front of the tv do you use your stomach rolls as a table? When I lose weight I will have to sit at a real table because I will no longer have one built in!!

I totally missed this thread somehow, but it's definitely the story of my life. It's been a while since I did this... I know I did it at this weight before, on the way up, but for some reason going down seems to work better, LOL.

My mom calls my boobs my shelf.

But I hate when it misses my boobs and hits my stomach and I don't notice because my boobs are in the way. Then I've got a stain I didn't even try to get out because I didn't know it was there!

ha ha ha THE SHELF...my mother calls my layer of boobs my shelf too. After eating she would tell me that I need to DUST off my shelf..lol i would have crumbs and splotches of my sauces all over my shirts. I too, would have to change shirts after eating lunch or be a pro at using the shout wipes and such and walking around with a big dark spot on my shirt all afternoon. How embarrassing.

:speechles I look forward to having to tell my mom to dust her shelf off....

      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.
