I can't wait to NOT be asked if I'm pregnant when I'm NOT PREGNANT! And, I can't wait to NOT hear people tell me I don't look pregnant at all at 9 months when I AM PREGNANT! (I don't look any bigger since I am big enough already, the pregnancy just stays inside me I guess) GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

I can't wait to not avoid all if the sexy heels I always admire as I walk by the shoe dept. Can't wait to not have to shop plus sized. Can't wait to not have to keep checking my underarm flab to see the progress & if they still look like granny arms.

I can't wait to comfortably sit on the floor and play with my 3 yr old son and be able to get back up off the floor. I can't wait to be able to walk on stairs going up or down and not fear falling. I fall easy and hard.

To be able to fit a regular size towel around my body!

To not have to wear shorts over my bathing suit and make sure that towel is right at the edge of the pool so I can cover back up immediately!!

To be able to sit on my husbands lap without him Gasping for air!!

Update: I had my surgery on August 30, 2012. Somewhere on this forum, I posted that I wanted to be able to accept my husbands jacket when offered to me on a chilly night. This seemed like a silly thing to "want"...

I am happy to say, I can accept his jacket now - and it's BIG! I may be losing slower than others on this forum - but I couldn't be happier! I am almost 9 months out and down about 91 pounds. I went from a size 24 in plus size to a size 14 regular size! I can go into any store and find clothes that fit! I thank god that I had the courage to go through with this surgery - it has changed my life!

I can't wait to NOT feel like I'm taking up more than half the bed.

I can't wait to NOT make those not-so-delicate breath-holding, grunting sounds when I get up from sitting on the floor, or get out of bed, or bend down to pick up something from the floor...

I can't wait to not worry about sitting on a plastic chair at a picnic or get together and having it crash down on the floor with me on top of it.

I can't wait to be able to put on shoes, socks and pants without getting winded.

I can't wait to be able to stand for long periods of time without my knees and feet and lower back aching.

I can't wait to stop my cholesterol meds and cpap machine!!!

I wanna walk PAST Lane Bryant, not INTO Lane Bryant.

Also, I can't wait to show my side by side before and after photos :-)

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

      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! 😞
