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

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?

No one notice me at my ten year HS Reunion lol and fit on roller coasters and go shopping in tge skinny section. Yeah I've got a lot I can't wait to do :o)

I can't wait to walk from the parking lot up to the time clock without panting.

Cher, I had an ex that always asked me to wear extremely sexy undies that he found in my drawer. ...he would say. Baby why you never wear these they were a size 6...but my bum was a size 10....I said OK and came to bed with the sexy undies on my head holding in hair rollers. ....LOL

LMAO!

Me too.

Can't wait to wear them on my LMAO!

I can't wait to finally be happy with my body.

I'm sure i won't look perfect but getting to a 16-18 from a 24-26 is perfect for me.

Yeah the hoo ha thing I can not wait til I can see it again lol

TMI WARNING!!:

Yeah I haven't seen my hooey (borrowed that nickname from Scrubs ;-) ) without mirror assistance for a loooong time. hope to lose a lt of fat from that area - sorry, but honestly, when I'm just in underwear and looking in the mirror it looks like I've got a Cornish game hen in my underpants! It's embarrassing to look like I've got more junk than my husband! I wear "shape wear" to flatten it out, and any other areas that benefit are just bonus.

I mean you know you've got a problem when you have a camel toe while wearing a skirt! (ok, just exaggerating on that one but still......)

I hate probably 98% of my body - abdominal rolls, side rolls, back rolls, neck rolls, gigantic double chin, sagging belly apron, huge arms, back boobs, under arm boobs, fat and flabby thighs, huge calves....the list is almost endless, but my, uh.....well, my crotch is my biggest issue, the part of me I hate the most.

I refuse to go to the gyno simply because of it. I'm too mortified, and I don't care what anyone says about how they see it all.

See my surgeon on Monday to discuss my surgery on 7 Jan. Woohoo! Can't wait to get my stomach 85% removed!
