I feel the need to let you know that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it. We are human and we often fail ourselves. Wake up tomorrow and commit to yourself again!!!

Thank you! I am happy to say that I made it yesterday without any junk food/candy! One day at a time is all my brain can take- better eating goals to come! I did set a fitness goal!

Ok, it's been a while since I've been on here. But I'm feeling the need to confess so here goes...

I confess that I'm way more arrogant than I ever thought possible

I confess that I see myself as one hot momma (it took pics to convince me I wasn't before weight loss, lol)

I confess I'm addicted to beef Jerky and I justify the unhealthiness of it by the great Protein amount

I confess that sex is way better now!

I confess that I'm 11 months out and drink alcohol several times a week even though I signed a contract that I would wait a year

I confess that I love my cheese puffs and dont even feel guilty about it

I confess that I don't say it out loud but I am beyond thrilled that I now share clothes with my 14 year old daughter

I confess that while folding clothes I hold up my new panties and just grin at how tiny they look

Last but not least I confess that this is by far the best decision I've ever made, better than when I said 'I do' to my husband!!!

Whew, that felt great, thx

I'm still pre-op, (surgery is in 10 days!), but I've got a few confessions...

1. One reason I'm going to Mexico to have my surgery is because I didn't think I'd pass the psyke eval.

2. I'm more afraid of the flight down there than anything about the surgery.

3. I'm not telling my dad, or any of my extended family if I can help it.

4. I'll be in Mexico while my 4th baby brother is being born.

5. Sometimes I think I'm too young for this (18), but I didn't go to my junior or senior prom because I didn't feel pretty enough to wear a dress, and I don't want to let my weight take any more of my life away from me.

6. I've been weighing myself several times a day since I started pre-op. I'm down 10 pounds, but I'm pretty sure most of it is Water.

7. I ate an entire large pizza the day before my pre-op started.

8. I'm terrified of loose skin and losing my hair.

9. I've been so focused on my upcoming surgery that I've been slacking in my college classes.

10. My biggest hope for this is that I'll finally be pretty enough to attract a mate.

I confess that I too would like to find a mate. My hubby died in 2005. Hoping that I will get skinny enough to feel attractive enough to actually find a new soul mate. :unsure:

Ok confession time...

I have gotten completely obsessed with the gym and weighing mySelf. (I've lost 130 btw)

I eat whatever I want in moderation. I'm in the gym so much that it burns off right Away

I love the attention I get. Reminds me of when I played football in college.

I hated throwing out all my old jeans. It's like burning money. I'm so upset

I feel constipated a lot. I started taking Metamucil to regulate myself, but Jesus. I go to th washroom like 3 times a week.

At my heaviest April 2013. 320

November 2nd 2013 195

I love this thread. I am a little over two months (8-27). And I confess..

- this is harder than I ever thought it would be

- I wish I could eat the way I used to

- since loosing the weight I haven't been hit on once..

- I just now jot rid of all my bigger clothes because I am afraid I will just go back and have to re buy all those

- I eat things I know I probably shouldn't

- posting things in this forum is kinda of scary because of fear of judgment

- I drink alcohol and caffeine

- I am more self conscious now than I ever have been

- I still see the fat girl I was

- I haven't been to the gym

- my body grosses me out

- sex now.. Hurts

- I snack more than I should

- I still think this was the best thing I have ever done for me

- peoples comments about my weight loss makes me uncomfortable

- my family isn't that supportive

My name is Olivia and I am sixteen years old. I was sleeved in June of this year and it was the best decision of my life. My surgeon told me that because I am so young i will have much less excess skin and my body will be more receptive to the surgery in almost every way. I am positive that you will do great and i wish the very best for you. Don't hesitate to message me if you have any questions or just want to talk :)

I'm pre-op but I think it's important to get things off your chest:

1. I have told people I'm single because I'm too busy to date. The truth is I'm ashamed of my weight and don't want to face rejection.

2. I'm super excited to have an intimate relationship again. It's been 7 years and I'm 28, I feel so sad about this.

3. I am scared to death to be thin, I hide behind my weight to not be outgoing.

4. I don't exercise, at all. I feel this is going to be a challenge for me.

5. I love soda, I'm heartbroken I have to give it up. I think I'm being naive how hard this will be for me.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
