"I can't wait to/until..."



Recommended Posts

Some clever person started a thread a while ago about all the things they can't wait to do after surgery and start dropping the pounds. How fun, right!?

I meant to comment on it but got distracted doing god knows what. Needless to say, I cannot locate the original post. So lets start a new one!!

I can't wait to wear shorts and a tank top just because - and feel comfortable in them.

I can't wait to fit into a normal sized....well....anything!

I can't wait until my outside awesomeness matches my inside awesomeness.

I can't wait until painting my toes is not a series of contortionist moves that would rival Cirque Du Soilei routines.

I can't wait to be able to hug me knees.

I can't wait to weigh less than my husband.

I can't wait to share clothes with my sister - she's a size 4 :/

I can't wait to get my whole arm tattooed - not just my forearm because I HATE my upper arm largeness.

I can't wait to do a 10K, like for real.

I can't until a short haircut does not make me look like Rosie O'Donnell (sorry Rosie)

I can't until I am able to be "more adventurous" in the bedroom *wink*

Can't wait to... Be comfortable enough to let someone take a picture.

Can't wait to... Not be afraid I won't fit in an airplane seat. And other people not to be worried they have to sit next to the obese person.

Can't wait to ... Go to an amusement park and be able to ride every ride.

Can't wait to go sky diving. I got turned down last time for being 40 lbs over the max!

I can't wait... To wrap a normal size bath towel all the way around me and tuck it in.

I can't wait... To shop at Forever 21

I can't wait... To run up a flight of stairs without being out of breath.

I can't wait... To look at the scale without leaning all the way forward to see what I weigh.

I can't wait... To be able to squat down to tie my shoes

Yeah using a beach towel to wrap me up in is not cute. And the scale thing - totally!

I can't wait to throw anything on in the closet and not worry... Does this still fit? Or try to stretch my shirts some before putting them on so that you can't see how high my pants go up on my stomach.

I also can't wait to get more tattoos either. I have my whole right lower leg done as part on a leg sleeve but have not moved too my thigh because of being embarrassed of my weight. I also can't wait to show of my tattoos. I'm so shy about them now because I think people will say "look at that fat chicks tattoos." I love my tattoos but hide due to my weight. I can't wait to be free of my fears.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
