  1. I love all your responses they are all so wonderful. I was perusing through some of the you tubers vlogs and one of them said that being smaller threw her balance off. She was used to turning the corners for a bigger body and now she still tries to do that and somehow she does not adjust right and runs into doorways. Another you tuber says that her collar bone is exposed now and she forgets and hits herself on it from time to time. Ive heard about the knees meeting up while laying down because some feel that it hurts or is uncomfortable. All i know is that i cant wait to get there to my future of thin seems like such an impossibility right now. Looking forward to the shopping to playing with kids to being outdoors not asking my boss for a specialty chair each year and riding a bike gosh how i want to ride a bike again. I can go on and on but like some of the others i really am only doing this to be able to walk upright again and hold my head high. To get healthy and no offence to my pharmacist but i dont want her to know me by name at least not for the reasons she does. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App

Im here thinking that i have never been average or thin or anything remotely close to that. Tell me what is it like? what does it feel like? What do you imagine its like? Help me visualize what my future can be! I know i should do it my self but just cant seem to wrap my head around the notion lmao. Be creative as much as you like lol or not.????

  11. Okay thanks to a special lady im going to give it another shot. Here is my question anyone out there that would sweat an unusual amount before surgery? Did it get better after surgery? Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  12. Wow, people this forum had me in tears after reading all the posts. I am new here and i can understand that you guys are frustrated with people getting the surgery and still asking about bad foods. I seen a post yesterday where someone educated another on it, and i thought to my self this is where i need to be. I was so grateful that i came across this site it was just what i was looking for. Somewhere i could ask all my questions and not be judged for being super morbidly obese. As i explained in one of my first post i am not that savvy when it comes to social media had not been able to figure out what is what heck just a few min. before reading this forum i found the the rules of posting, but i was not going to let that stop me since i had finally found some people to help me. I come from a small small town i have to travel to see my surgeon and anyone else that is going through the same thing i will be going through. I am very shy and have so much trouble making friends due to the weight and because i have no room for face book in life it is like i have nothing to offer. i'm sure some of you old timers can remember what that was like or can you? It seems to me that some of you have forgotten what it was like to be the newbie. Good for those that did the research before asking questions i did that research too but i thought by asking questions it would open up some type of conversation but yall are to tired for that. I seen earlier a post from someone who quit because they felt they were being attacked now i can see why they felt that way i asked one of the no no questions and got some burn back from someone. I was still okay with it brushed it off. However now i see that some of those that answered me are on this same forum one thank you for taking the time out of your wonderful to busy lives to deal with newbies to grace me with an answer. Sorry i bothered yall. I pray never to be at the same level as yall, and god grant me the patience to help those that need me. I hope you guys continue to lose and be happy. As for me ill keep my log in only for the store but ill seek advice somewhere else.

  16. Thank you for your replies, mine is a desk job with some physical activity i would say 40/60. I have been concerned that there would not be enough healing time. Some doctors hear desk job and right away clear you to go back.
