Jobey

I've had little NSVs, like fitting into my jeans again. But today I tried on an outfit that hasn't fit me in four years and I look better in it now than I did then
I'm so glad I tried it on today as my weight loss had really slowed down, which I know is normal, but still made me a little sad.
Height - 6'3"
HW - 140kg or 310lbs
SW - 132.5kg or 291lbs
CW - 118kg or 259lbs
GW 80kg or 175lbs

I use MyFitnessPal and would love some friends on there that use bariatric ways of eating. All my friends on there have no idea about it and what it entails lol. My username is jobey84. Anyone that doesn't mind adding me or visa versa would be awesome
I'm only 3 days post op atm, so my food diary is pretty boring but hopefully will get more exciting in a month or so lol

You can still eat a LOT of chips/crackers/etc with the sleeve. Pasta might sit badly in your stomach (it does in mine, but many eat it just fine) and pizza is easy for many to eat.
The thing is simple carbs like those (as opposed to complex carbs like whole grains and beans) aren't much different to your body than sugar.

I didn't have to do a liquid pre-op diet instead I did no carbs, no sugar, Protein high diet. I tried to find a yoghurt but they all had way too many carbs and sugars

I'm 5 days post op and I think I just miss the idea of food I don't think I'm hungry, but it is really hard to tell the difference. I'm also finding sitting down with my family to eat really hard, cause I love the smell of what their eating but I know that eating real food at this stage can actually cause serious harm.
I think that part of why I'm feeling this way is because until you can't participate in the ritual of eating you don't realise how much you miss it.
I'm so looking forward to the baby food stage only 8 days to go yay

The following is a made up of a few things...
Truths...
Half truths...
Bullsh*t......
Movie quotes/song lyrics..
(No, I'll not be telling you which are which..)
Now, this may seem odd to you...
But it's probably the most accurate reflection of myself that I'll ever post in a public forum...
Ever!!
- My real name is NOT KindaFamiliar
- I was raised in the Jehovah's Witness religion but was kicked out at age 17. This resulted in me not speaking to any of my family for a number of years. That now means that I have little to no relationship with either my parents or siblings. In fact, late last year, after much mental debate, I changed my name. My middle name was my "father's" first name. It is not so any longer.
- Chicks dig me - because I rarely wear underwear, and when I do, it's usually something unusual.
- I successfully auditioned (3 callbacks) for a television show that never came to being. It was a panel/chat show and they wanted people who were "opinionated and outspoken". Weird, huh?
- I believe in the soul, the c*ck, the p*ssy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high Fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days...
- I love to sing. I even enjoy karaoke. I've won many competitions. The smallest prize was a $50 bar tab. The largest was $2500 cash. I've been fortunate enough to sing on stage with Jimmy Barnes (Aussie rock royalty) and also sing karaoke with the late Slim Dusty (Aussie country GOD).
- I'm 47 years old next month and am STILL yet to decide what I wanna be when I grow up. I'm stuck between radio announcer and fire engine.
- I've not lost weight for over four months. I've not gained weight either. I've fluctuated between 106 and 110 (kilograms) lost for that entire period. It's finally starting to get to me.
- Some people play hard to get. I play hard to want. I'm really not for the faint hearted. But I'm well worth the effort.
- I actually do like big butts. But at the same time, I can lie... I'm not. But I can.
- Little horses make me smile. No, laugh. In fact, giggle like a child. It's not fake. It's a real giggle. And I love it.
- I'm not yet 'proud' of my post-WLS achievements. I've not got 'there' yet. I will. I know it. And when I do, I'll 'proud' myself until I'm blistered and spent. But until then, I'm merely pleased.
- I'm an excellent kisser.
- I'm an avid anti-violence against women campaigner. I have stepped into various situations on occasions where I thought someone's actions were inappropriate. I will always do so.
- On a related note, I've never had a black eye (despite being hit many, many times).
- I've never left Australia... But I'm in the process of getting my passport.
- I have some issues.
- I truly don't believe that you can 'be anything you want to'... But I also believe that such logic shouldn't stop you trying if it's what you want to do. Go and do whatever you like. Don't worry about upsetting or hurting others. Just know that if you do, there may be consequences.
- I recently donated 60 used (fat) polo shirts to a local shelter. Every one of them was black.
- To me, there are very few things that say summer better than eating a fresh mango in the bathtub.
- I unashamedly like Van Halen, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, Whitesnake et al.
- I also like Sinatra, Pavarotti and the bagpipes.
- I cry in 'The Green Mile'.
- I will answer any question openly and honestly - but it's gotta be worded correctly.
- I like me. I know my shortcomings. I know my strengths. I don't generally publicize either - but they're all there for everyone to see.
- I'm aware that this post has wandered off track and I don't care.
- Finally, I'm going to stalk someone's profile... You all know whose...
If you've got this far - WHAT THE ABSOLUTE F*CK IS WRONG WITH YOU???
Go spend some time with your family!!!
Crazy b*tches!!!
.

Holy shit!! That's incredible 230+ pounds!! Well done I just added you on MFP
