loosing the booty :(



Recommended Posts

I've lost 46 lbs. I'm short and I'm latina. I have a lot of curves. Lol and HAD a big booty for which all my family knew me for. I also have big hips. Well lately my pants look nasty on me. My booty has officially disappeared. The only thing holding my jeans are my hips. I'm scared of going shoping for a new pair. What if I'm the same size and its just in my head?

It's not in your head. Get the new pants. And if you want a Bodacious Booty, squats are your friend. I've got a low BMI now, but I still got an A** thanks to lots of walking and squats.

Well the butt and boobs have lots of fat and usually go first..that's not to say all of it will go and once you start losing more in you stomach and other places it might pop out again :) I'm black and fat and have no ass so I'm hoping dropping all this weight will make my butt more visible lol cause its pretty freakin flat and wide lol

I totally agree. My butt was nice to me. I've never had anyone say anything negative about it, until now. My mom tells me that my jeans are Sagging in the butt area lol. It's Definitely not a pretty site

:lol: :D

I know the feeling about an "absent" booty!!!!

wore my old jeans forever through my weight loss process

didn't go out of the house, retired

in other words i couldn't really see a difference in my body/progress

clothes showing they were too big

of course i eventually took note of changes as time went by

one day after my shower i looked in the mirror..........

turned around and said something like....

OMG - my tushy is gone :o

unfortunately the remnants are all the flab hanging down :(

corrected ok when i wear clothes and DH is the ownly one that sees me like that

for other reasons, he "likes my new body" ;) - booty or not!!!

my butt and pancakes look alike !!!! :lol:

thats ok, if that is my worst problem i'm dealing with - i'm happy

all the below problems are gone post WLS

diabetes/insulin/meds

high blood pressure

c-pap

energy is wonderful

what else is gone?

my low self-esteem

i "gained" ;) confidence

and found happiness :)

what a wonderful world !!!! :)

Well I have never had a booty and since I lost weight it is even worse. haha The worst part (since it has never been my best asset) is that my tailbone hurts bad now. I have had to purchase a pillow to take places with me to sit on. Thinking about getting some of those panties that make you look like you got a bigger one! haahaa!

My butt disappeared at first too. But with squats, lunges, running, and overall fitness it's never looked perkier! You'll be fine if you put a little work in!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
