Oh so true!! I keep checking for spills on my chest and I just don't have them anymore- used to be just about every meal.

LOL!! this is so true! I still have a hard time not going to the plus sized section of a store - old habits die hard - i picked up a shirt the other day and it was a size 4x and i thought it was a pretty top - i started to put it in my buggy and my husband took it out of my hand and just looked at me like REALLY?! it took me a minute for it to sink in LOL! But it is a great feeling when it does...

the water/restaurant one cracked me up. I never really drank and ate at the same time which has often baffled people, and all the more so post-op. I learned a long time ago to just place my hand over the glass when the server comes around so that they don't keep asking me over and over if I need something else.

how about your wardrobe suddenly looks colorful as opposed to all dark colors.

Very true – thanks for the list! How about, “When someone asks you how long you’re going to keep dieting, your answer is, ‘the rest of my life.’”

OMG !

WHY, OH WHY didn't I have this surgery sooner? Stupid fear and self hate. The notion that I should be able to lose the weight on my own really had me hostage. Hello, I could not. I sure tried, hundreds of times. But I do tell you something, it wasn't all self control because now I am not hungry all the time and I do have self control. If this is the way everyone else feels about food no wonder I could have never made it on my own.

Every one is on point! I have waiters bring me Water just so I don't have to try to explain that I don't want anything to drink. My kids or boyfriend just trade their empties out with me when they need a refill.

One more to add: When you get tired of looking for a light, interesting magazine for a quick read because all the headlines are the latest "drop 10 pound" diets and you're not interested.

Yes, just order a Water when you get there. No more questions!
