When you make your husband order the Desserts you want so you can live vicariously through him. Or when you make your husband order the meals you want because it doesn't make sense to order your own because you'll only eat a few bites

A few years ago ( actually many years) I use to buy junk food a lot I had a goodie drawer for my kids. If I didn't have that goodie drawer I would have A panic attack!! When they were eating I would ask them, IS IT GOOD? IS IT SWEET, IS IT CREAMY? This went on with everything they ate. I always dipped their plates and as we set down for dinner every night if they ask for seconds I would throw the potatoes on their plate. I was always taking a bite of their sandwich. BAD habits. Don't do it anymore but food is very important to me even tho I can't eat it. Part of my disorder I'm sure. When I grew up we did without many many times so I am totally obsessed with food. LOL I would love to order one dish and share it with my hubby now. I mean darn you buy a salad and we eat what we want and the rest goes to waste. He bought himself Tofu kung pow veggies and ate one that 1 order for 3 meals. LOL Such fun now that we can share. LOL So I guess "you know you might be a WLS peeps if you can share and still make 2 or more meals. It seems like today is my on and on day. Sorry

When you can relate to this you-tube so much, but are concerned that others won't see the humor ...

I legit have my own version like this that I sang to my students before I left for surgery. They knew I was on liquids, and I joked about them being good, or I might eat one of them. This makes me laugh!

So are you saying that you are a hot teacher???
Not saying I'm hot, lol, but saying I'm a teacher who is super silly with her kids--totally

I was a school bus driver for awhile and I can tell you that teachers who are silly and enjoy their students are always attractive and it has nothing to do with physical attributes. I've met many beautiful, ugly people and I've met even more who are homely but extremely beautiful.

Well, thank you. I do love my kiddos, that's for sure. I think if you build a relationship with them, they are more willing to give you all they've got. I teach 2 consecutive grades at a very small, rural impoverished school. Those kids are MY kids, especially after 2 years. If we couldn't cut up and have fun, I'd be miserable. If that makes me attractive, I'll take it. ????

Getting your favorite jeans for Christmas. Telling people a size too small so they fit when you actually get them. Then frowning when they fit because you realize in a month they won't anymore

When you butt is boney and your feet are cold!

Absolutely this. Yesterday it was 64 degrees. I had on a sweater, a scarf and a wool coat. Someone asked if I was sick. Nope. Just a WLS patient.

      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...

      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
