Fun And Maybe Some Laughs



Recommended Posts

Hi Ya'll sleevers and soon to be sleevers.

I wanted to post something that maybe we can all relate to and maybe laugh a little :) or cry...lol!!

1 - What is something that you are NEVER going to miss before being sleeved ? (if you already are sleeved then think back)

2- What is something that you are SUPER excited about after being sleeved?

--------

1- I am never going to miss my underwear that keeps "rolling/falling down" or trying to pull them up while walking....NOT CUTE

2- Besides getting to a healthy BMI and all the greatness with that it would be WEARING A Black SEQUIN dress BABY!! t

Love to hear YOURS!! :)

I do NOT miss being unable to clean myself properly after doing #2, just could not reach that far at my fattest.

I DO like shopping at stores and finding a LOT of clothes that fit. In fact a few times I could not find anything that was SMALL enough, was shopping for a jogging suit and everything started at in the LARGE, which was hanging off me.

I wont miss sweating all the time.

I wont miss acting like a contortionist to shave my legs.

I wont miss worrying if Im going to break a lawn chair.

There's so much more but Ill stop now...lol.

Im looking forward to wearing cute stylish clothes from the normal girl store.

Im looking forward to doing yoga and not cutting of my air supply.

Im looking forward to making the inner thighs of my jeans last as long as the rest of the jeans.

Im looking forward to being able to get my freak on with my hubby easier :)

Im looking forward to weighing less than my husband.

There are hundreds and hundreds of things to not miss and just as many things to look forward to.

Not going to miss my double chin, rubbing thighs and feeling like I'm dragging concrete blocks around.

Super excited about finally getting my weight under control, feeling light and energized, and learning what it is to have confidence.

1. Won't miss - The stares and judgements from others

2. Excited about - Living a life that is free from the fat that has consumed me for most of my adult life.

I won't miss wearing layers and layers of Spanx just to smooth everything out.

I won't miss being out of breathe when I go up and down our stairs.

I won't miss feeling like I'm stuck in a giant shell that isn't me.

I look forward to the day I hear, YOU are pretty instead of "you have such a pretty face!"

I look forward to being able to keep up with my children.

I look forward to not being a "new" me, but being ME.

There's so many good things listed here already, but here's some more I can think of:

I won't miss feeling so fixated on food.

I am excited to be able to wear high heels for a good length of time without being in excruciating pain (I have so many that I've never even worn!).

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
