A little upset

So when I ask my hubby if a shirt or something looks small on me, I expect him to be honest and tell me (he always is), honestly if I ask him I tend to already think it is to small anyway. Well today he tells me the shirt I have on is to small. I DID NOT ask him his opinion and as a matter of fact I bought it the right size. I looked in the mirror and my rolls are not hanging out and my tummy is covered. I know how to shop. I am not a delusional person who is fat and they don't know it, so they keep wearing or buying to small clothes. LOL! I buy the right size, mommy taught me well. I don't know why this upset me but I wish he had kept his comment to himself. UGH! I am to emotional and I have no idea why!!!! Well thanks for letting me vent. Have a safe holiday weekend.

Maybe he's just not used to you wearing a normal fitted shirt lol...when I was big I always wore larger size shirts to cover up, so maybe that's the case here. I'm sure he will get used to it in time. And I'm sure your shirt looks lovely on you as well. Way to go :)

I had to laugh at the delusional fat person that continues to wear small cothes. I never did that, i tend to go the other way and wear big stuff. I'm sorry it upset you, Maybe he felt he could tell you because you do ask sometimes. But if it isn't small, then I am not sure, unless its just not his favorite of your shirts? Just let him know when you want his opinion you'll ask for it hahaha. I'd wear it all the damn time now!! Tehe jk ;)

I hate when I come out and hubby says "Are you wearing that? I like the blue shirt" lol. Don't let it get to you, you know what looks good!

Thanks ladies! I know he didn't mean any harm but for some reason it bothered me today. It probably was the style he didn't like. But I wore it anyway.. LOL! :D

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
