I wanna go into Victoria Secrets and find out just what she's been hiding all these years!!! I want to wear pretty panties and bras, look in the mirror and not want to throw up!! Can you imagine - a "no roll zone!"

Post away, Big Tex. I hate all of the folders -- I read and post to the "unread" thread and the status updates.

I confess that I am starting to look at my clothing catalogs differently. 3-4 months to go for surgery.

To wear a dress in summer without the fear of having a rash on the inside of my thighs from heat and friction.

Looking forward to wearing a dress, not worrying about airline seats, just getting around easier, not feeling self conscious about my size, and overall just feeling better[emoji5]

Coughing without peeing.
Feeling comfortable again, this fat suit is not me!!

Ziplining, skydiving, horseback riding, being able to fit on a roller coaster.

When I was down 90 lbs after my band surgery I went zip lining for the first time. Terrifyingly fantastic. lol

Hi! You and I have something in common other than we were sleeved. Dr. Tyner did my surgery as well at Sandoval Regional. How are you doing? Are you from ABQ? I'm in Rio Rancho.

Actually I am a newbie on the site and even though I'm getting an rn.y I find you sleepers very interesting! I think I hang out here more than anywhere LOL! I am from Rio Rancho and dr. Tyner is going to do my surgery. I have to have a revision from having my stomach stapled in 1991. Should I trust him? LOL

OMG YES! Dr. Tyner is amazing and has the best bed side manner. I talked with one of his assisting nurses before I went into surgery and he told me that he had assisted Dr. Tyner on over 500 sleeve's. In fact, his mother (the assisting nurse) was also sleeved 6 years ago by Dr. Tyner, and is doing really well. I kid you not, I felt so good right after surgery that I was up and walking three hours later.

My sister was sleeved in 2015 by Dr. Tyner as well and she is doing realy well. You have nothing to fear, he and his team are awesome. Sandoval Regional is a great place for surgery also. Everything there is so new and fancy. The team there really knows there stuff. Overall it was a good experience.

I really liked him when I met him, and just had an inherent trust for him. It's a riot that his own mother works for him, I hope she still does it'll be interesting to meet her! I still need to finish my last two nutritional classes and that's it they should schedule my surgery! I'm so ready to get this done. How have you done in your journey? By the way my name is Joan.

I want to be comfortable in my skin and in my clothes to dress temperature-appropriate in any activity. I'd especially love to be able to camp again (in a tent and sleeping bag), hike, canoe, kayak, "tube" the river (Frio/Guadalupe/Comal). I'd love to feel comfy hunting and fishing again.

I also look forward to NOT having to spend time taking medicines!

Fluffy, you nailed it especially about wearing temperature appropriate clothes. That is one of my biggest frustrations. I dress to cover up my rolls.

- Getting off as many of my meds as I can

- Being lighter than my husband

- Being able to shop at more than two clothing stores locally

- Not being concerned that I won't be able to get out of/into the car if I park in small parking spot

- Not peeing a little when I sneeze

- having more energy to play with my kids

Oh Lordy! Me too dear!!! ((hugs)) Here's to letting our freak flags fly and letting it all hang out! I plan on baring my batwings come spring--and dayum the torpedoes to anyone who dares to say anything!
