I'm tired of hearing awe but you have such a pretty face.., o_0 I hate that. I would like to buy clothes anywhere. I want to fly ( never been on a plane). I want to go to a club (I'm 30 never been clubbing and I'm single no kids). I want to go to an amusement park and get on all the rides!! :) last and most important, I want to have kids and be able to enjoy our lives and live a healthy long life :)

I can't wait to slow dance with my husband again! We are both on the heavy side and when we dance our bellys get in the way so we turn to the side lol!!

I also want my 6 year old son and 13 year old daughter to be able to put their arms all the way around me when they hug me!!

I cant wait to shop in VS for the first time EVER!!

I'm a Christian singer with two praise bands! I am confident in the gift that God has given me but i stand there worrying about what I look like! I can't wait to be able to lead people into worship without having my weight in my mind!

To... run, go hiking, not have anxiety about airplane seats, stop avoiding eye contact with people who knew me in my skinny days, ride a roller coaster, jump on the trampoline with my son, have ENERGY, and go to a gym without feeling like I don't belong. And yes - I too want to paint my toenails without feeling like its a major event to reach my feet.

And I forgot to say - go to the doctor without them telling me I'm overweight, stop taking my blood pressure medication, and not have my PCOS hormones balance out.

One thing I wanted was for my son to hug me and be able to touch his hands together (with me in the middle). We were in the grocery store a couple of weeks ago and he did it and even said "look mama." I forgot that was one thing I said before surgery that I wanted, so you reminded me. Thank you (and you brought tears to my eyes for two reasons: 1. reminding me of this small goal and 2. for all of the other things that everyone shared... I totally related to so many, but how beautiful it is to hear what others hearts desire - I wish you all success in this journey!). :)

So many of these are true for me. Riding the rides at amusement parks. Playing ball with my 3 sons. Having my husband carry me. Weighing less than my husband. I can't wait.

I cant wait to really not feel fat when people say that "you're not that big".

To be able to shop in stores that have something that I would really want to wear and not be forced to wear because my options are slim to none.

To be able to sit in a chair or rollercoaster sit and not worry about it digging into my thighs....or worry about if the seatbelt is going to make it all the way across me...

And just recently (since I just got off a flight), to not worry about someone sitting on a sit beside me on a flight and have them sitting on my hips..

I have many of the same wishes.

  • To ride amusement park rides with my kids
  • To do a walking tour somewhere that lasts all day and be able to do it
  • To take a plane ride without having to be a second seat for the rest of my a**
  • To go to the movie theater, a playhouse, or auditorium without worrying if I will fit in the seat
  • To attend Open House at my kids school without having to stand in the back because I can't fit in the desk.
  • To shop anywhere I want--not just "Specialty Size" Stores

Wow, I can't wait to:

* Get off BP meds!

* Stop worrying that I will end up with diabetes

* Clothes -- 'nuff said.

* Not be the fattest person in the room.

* Not always assume that people are thinking about how fat I am

* Have more energy

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
