What Are Some Things You Can't Wait for POST OP?



Recommended Posts

@@butterfyeffect I completely understand. I can not wait to walk into Old Navy and shop, instead of having to purchase their items online only.

For now, I can't wait for the next month to be over. At this point, I will be happy to get back into my 22/24 size clothes that I already have in my closet :) .

Can't wait to come home and not be glued to the couch all night due to lack of energy.

Never been a runner, but for some reason I want to be able to run for exercise.

Stop wearing sleep apnea mask!

Cross my legs, don't ever recall being able to do so.

Not worrying about fitting in booths or how sturdy outdoor furniture is.

Shopping in normal size clothing stores and not paying $60 for a pair of pants.

Being able to ride at amusement parks. I live 30 minutes from hershey park, plan on getting a season pass next year!

Not feeling like everyone is looking at you when you're in public.

Having my husband and son benefit from the new healthily eating and getting them more active with me.

Actually being in photos instead of always taking them.

Many more that I can't think of right now. I see July 24 as the start of many good changes to come :)

Throwing on shorts and a tank top, and leaving the house wearing them! I live in south Florida, it's hot! But I never wear shorts or tank tops out, this would be so awesome for me!

I can't wait to not have to worry about sliding into a booth at a restaurant with friends.

I can't wait to put my laptop on my lap.

Cant wait to cross my legs.

Cant wait to sit on flimsy patio chairs.

Cant wait to fit in a school desk when I go to teacher parent meetings.

Oh my gosh these hit the nail on the head for me-every single one. I'll add:

Wearing a one piece bathing suit with no skirt and looking good!

I'm ready to chew some food again! Seems like I've been on liquids forever! I am ready to wear bright colors and smaller sizes. To sit in a restaurant booth and have room and to not have little kids stare at me.

No, expensive is figuring size 8 is what you were in college and when you got to size 8, you spent a big chunk of money on clothes.

Only to go smaller to the point that the size 8's you can't wear any more.

Yes!!! And then starting to worry as the size 6's you again invested a chunk in start getting loose ????

      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? 🤷‍♀️
