You had to buy a ring snuggie for your wedding band/engagement ring because they fall off your finger.

I will get them resized once I am done losing weight!

you venture into the pool all summer and teach yourself how to swim because your confidence levels are to the roof

staying home ONE DAY gives you cabin fever because you rather be out and about burning all your energy

you daydream about getting a Brazilian butt lift

On another note: I see some eye candy on this thread... Name's a combination of letters & numbers..... Hello, boys!!

You go into the store wearing saggy size 14 jeans, you pull a 12 off the rack to try on and in the dressing room you realize you need a size 10! YES!!!! Last wore a size 10 in my early 20's.

Clothes from the Jr department fit better than the "regular" women's section
You can't shop even at the non-plus-size stores you used to because the clothes there are too big. #IKindaMissChicos
You can do your own pedicures
You're no longer camera shy
When someone calls you tiny lil' thing and you realize they mean YOU!
When you can spend 8 hours painting, doing house work yard work or whatever and actually be able to get up and work out the next day!
When you sit down on something hard and realize you're a little uncomfortable as you don't have the passing you once did back there!

      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... :(
