I Can't Wait To Not Have To...



Recommended Posts

While I'm waiting to be sleeved, I constantly look forward to being healthy and slim. There are many daily reminders of why I decided to embark on this adventure.

We've all had moments where we think to ourselves, "Oh, I can't wait to NOT have to do this anymore!" For instance, having to "go by feel" to buckle up your seatbelt in the car, having to wake up to turn over in bed, sweating continuously...

What are some of yours?

...and I would LOVE to not hear, "At least she's doing something about it" whispered behind me at the gym.

How bout getting "winded" while drying your legs after a shower or tying your shoes. And does anyone else have the "good" mirror that they look in vs the other ones in the house. I have one that I look 25 lbs lighter in. I will be happy not have to seek out that mirror.

One of most frightening things that happened to me this summer was being at a local amusement park and my adolescent boy wanted to go on a roller coaster. I wasn't going to for different reasons but nonetheless they had a seat to sit in prior to the ride to see if you fit. No more measuring height. This time it was a matter if my fat ARSE would fit! Humiliating.

Can't wait not having to think "Am I going to be able to fit on this ride" while standing in line to get on a rollercoaster. Torture...LOL

How about going shooping for clothes and falling in love with a piece that they might not have in ur size or that u kno is not in ur size. Or how about running out of air while going up stair 2 or 3 floors. The looks people give u like if u not human or something. Having my relatives always reminding me how fat i am. Ive cryed over that.

I can't wait to NOT hear my daughter struggling to fit her arms all the way around me when she hugs me.

I can't wait to NOT wait until my husband leaves the room to get changed.

I can't wait to look down and NOT see my cheeks.

Oh, I could go on all day... :unsure:

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
