I absolutely love this. .. sorry to interrupt the chain because I'm still preop but I love this. I noticed some people open up and mentioned they were afraid of being judged. ..I haven't seen any of that so far and hope that I don't! Congrats to all of you on your confessions. .. I'm sure I will be back lol

New me on the way

I confess:

1. When I am asked HOW I'm losing weight, I LIKE the nonplussed look I get when I say "I had weight loss surgery". Perverse, I know. Makes me wonder what they thought I did...*blink*

2. I was afraid to have steak until dinner at a friends house made me face it (I would have kept on avoiding it otherwise).

3. I'm a professional consumer...not a shopaholic...

4. I'm much more vain than I ever believed, if the amount of time I know spend looking in the mirror is any indication. I just can't get over how different I look!

5. I want my husband to start loosing weight too but am afraid to hurt his feelings by telling him so.

I confess that I was very annoyed that my surgeon restricted my workouts pre-op, which added to me not reaching and being stuck at 99lbs.

I confess I've been so stressed about surgery again that I haven't gotten in my usual protein and water intake over the last week.
