Buying a bathing suit is exciting!

Yes. I still wear a tankini, and yes, it still has a skirt bottom but the choices are amazing!

So many colors, so many shapes, and I'm not the side show fat lady at the river/pool/ beach when I remove my cover up.

I don't even get pissed off when someone pulls out a camera and I'm in the shot or when it ends up on Facebook. Y'all know, that's HUGE.

Woohoo! Good for you! I enjoy buying bathing suit tops since now that I have fake boobs I can wear all of the skimpy tops with no straps and the girls don't seem to fall out, sag, or move around at all.

I still need to pre-approve all FB pictures though, lol.

Confession: I went swim suit shopping the other day. I cried in the dressing room.

I find that I'm more worried now about how I look in a bathing suit or shorts than I was pre WLS. I'm all jiggly and stuff. Not that I was even close to NOT being jiggly before, but everything kinda sags. Arms, thighs, probably my butt too but I'm afraid to look.

I'm sure I'm in denial about it, but leave me alone in my happy place, mmmmm'kay? :D

Totally get ya!! I didn't care so much before, but now I stress about how I look. We are some strange creatures. Lol

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
