You know you lost weight when



Recommended Posts

I had a new one recently -- You know you lost weight when...

your arms fit on the massage table without having to tuck your hands just under your thighs to keep your arms from sliding off the too-narrow table!

You know you lost weight when your underwear falls down past your hips when your at work and try to act like nothing happened while you calmly dismiss yourself to the ladies room to pull them back up.

You realize you have collar bones for the first time in your life. Felt them in the shower the other day and now I randomly reach up to touch them to make sure they're still there.

When a regular sized bath towel wraps around you WITHOUT any gaps! That has to be the best feeling. I realized this last night when I got out of the shower.

I even wrapped it past the gap about 7 or 8 inches. HOW FREAKING AMAZING!!!

I started just over a year ago @ 226. I think the biggest thing for me is having bones that stick out. I'm currently 141 lbs at 5ft 4in. I no longer have a goal weight. I'm content where I am and other than some extra skin (which I hate) I can't complain. My pants have went from a size 18 to a size 4.

when, without thinking about it, you casually throw a leg over into a crossed legs sitting position while watching tv... and after freaking out with delight about it, find its actually very comfortable and you stay that way for over two hours comfortably and with good blood supply.

Alright I was the last poster but I've achieved a new one. Not funny, just Fabulous:

When you can fit into your old jeans that were 2 (or more?) sizes two small just weeks ago.

That, and when a friend you see every day says "you really are losing weight, you know"

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
