Feeling more "normal" than I have in 25 years. My wife and I went away for the weekend and when swimming in the pool it felt great to take off my shirt and look fairly normal.
When I was a 3x/4x I felt like a moose swimming and usually left a t-shirt on. Now, wearing a size Large shirt I feel great sitting by the pool without a shirt.
Then when shopping for a t-shirt it felt great when the worker said "you're a Medium right?"

While I'm doing well, I have also noticed a tendancy to fall back old habits. I joined a gym and started going just walking on the treadmill for now. (I know I need more) I don't know what I'm doing and can't afford a trainer at the moment. Anyway I sort of stopped going. I find myself eating candy--which is not something I did before WLS. We're about 4 months in at this point and I think it gets harder from here. Point is to not give up. For me this was my last chance at living longer, better and healthier. We made a huge decision and have taken a big step towards life change. Now is not the time to go backwards!

Thanks! I actually had my first post op "out with friends on a Friday night" tonight. It was my doctor's son 's 18th birthday and we went to a pizza place. I drank 1/2 glass of Water, had 1 piece of calamari, 3/4 of the toppings of a piece of vegetarian pizza and one bite of chocolate birthday cake. I was stuffed so I came home and rode my recumbent bike 4 miles to get my digestion rolling. Preop it would have been 2 pints beer, loads of calamari, 2-3 pieces of pizza, a big piece of cake with ice cream, and probably home to sneak another piece or 2 of pizza. Pretty good night, I'd say.
