Hopefulin2021

I have my surgery in two weeks and I told my boss that I am getting a tumor removed and with that I will need a partial gastrectomy which is true, but I don’t feel the need to tell her or any of my coworkers my medical business that is your choice. I only told close family and my best friend. No one else needs to know anything and it’s not that I’m ashamed it’s just none of their f$;&@/?! business! Lol

Good luck everyone. I am actually getting pretty anxious omg can’t believe I am doing this!

I wouldn’t wear a bra because you’re going to have to remove it anyway and probably keep it off until you go home. One less thing to have to deal with when you leave. I am wearing a oversized t-shirt and oversized men’s sweatpants when I go Wednesday. I just want stuff that is easy to put on and take off.

On a scale of 1-10 I am at a 7 right now lol my surgery is Wednesday and I just really cannot believe it! Seems like I’ve been on this journey forever in reality 6 months lol

Yes all of that!!! Having potlucks at work and wondering if people are watching you to see how many times you ate!

Won't miss/looking forward to....................

Won't miss squeezing into a booth with a fixed non movable table at a restaurant. Will be nice to fit one and be able to breathe.
Not being able to partake in sports/activities that I worry my weight exceeds (i.e., kayak/canoeing, water/jet skiing, parasailing, zip lining, etc).
Going to the waterpark for the lazy river only. Will be nice to get back on the slides.
Going snow tubing again.
Longer hikes.
Being out in public without worrying someone is looking and judging me.
Fitting into NICE clothes that I actually WANT to wear. Not because I have to.
Hoping I will once again enjoy clothes shopping. Haven't in decades and do so mostly online now.
Not having to research which airline has the widest seats and worrying about needing to ask for an extender.
Not having the dang car seat belt make that dreaded, "you've pulled it out too far" noise LOL.

Soooooooooo many things!!!

Yes I hate those damn weight limits, I always have to check those with like everything. So glad you don’t have to go through that stuff again! Lol

Ahhh the relief! Lol
