Fun And Maybe Some Laughs

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'm not gonna miss my thighs rubbing together.

Not being able to paint my own toes without cutting off my air supply. Having to wear flip flop instead of sexy strappy heals, my double chin and overall huge face. My back fat, or arm fat.

I'm looking so forward to seeing my jawline again for the first time in like 11 yrs! And all the shopping for cute summer clothes I have to look forward to. I'm looking forward to the energy and mobility I'll have. Surgery is tomorrow!!!!

Im looking forward to getting on the floor to play with my grandbabies and not dreading trying to get back up. Making sure the restaurant has tables cause I feel like a stuffed sausage sitting in a booth. Not hiding in my house and getting out and feeling alive again. Not missing the marks my jeans leave around my middle. Being able to like my treadmill instead of dreading it. Most of all not wearing BLACK!!!

1- I am never going to miss not being able to bend down while wearing jeans.. Jesus it's so painful. :(

2-besides getting healthy which is the most important thing outta all of this.. It would be great to finally have a normal looking butt! Lol sorry but its so true!!! I have like 3 right now! Lol

There so much more I won't miss! Not fitting in nice jeans , not spending all day in the mall trying to buy clothes and coming out with 1 blouse and 1 pair of jeans! Won't miss losing my breath while feeling stuck in a booth at the restaurant , won't miss people looking at me like I'm not a normal person, won't miss my thighs! That have me a prisoner in my own body! Everything I wear has to be approved by my thighs!!!! Jesus! I'm crying while I type this! Because I've been so worried about the out come of this surgery and if its right for me but after writing about everything I wouldn't miss... Who wouldn't have surgery!!! It's. life changing experience ! I will finally out of this prison!!! God please help and make sure everything comes out perfect!!! Sorry if I got sentimental but it's been a longtime dealing with this and I think it's now time to stop suffering and have a new and greater and healthier life!!!

Can't wait to wear heels!!! Without having to take them off 10 minutes after putting them on!!! :)

I totally feel the same way :)

Im looking forward to getting on the floor to play with my grandbabies and not dreading trying to get back up. Making sure the restaurant has tables cause I feel like a stuffed sausage sitting in a booth. Not hiding in my house and getting out and feeling alive again.

I so know what you mean about wearing black all the time

I won't miss going to my Daughter's school for an event and not being able to sit on the gym floor w/ her because I knew I'd never get up or at least not w/o a major scene. Even the pregnant Mom could do it w/ grace.

I look forward to feeling healthy / and exercising w/o feeling judged.
