Where did these wrinkles suddenly come from??!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Well I do Celebrate my weight loss, ready to tumble over into overweight from straight obesity. My PCP is going to delete morbid obesity from my post- visit summery if I have to stand over him with a pointed stick. It has not an easy struggle, I have the BMR of a seasick sea slug, my skin tone has gone pfft, I have wrinkles on each side of my lips , I think I look like a scrawny French bulldog. And Tomkitten, bless his devious little mind, found an ad in one of our newspapers, either the MOUNT VERNON NEWS or the COKUMBUS DISPATCH, came to where I was at waving the paper. " Look Mom, some lady is adverising French bulldog puppies for $750, and YOU thought YOU were worthless!.
Back when I was expecting him I got brown Patches of pregnancy over my cheeks, told they would get better after I delivered WRONG WRONG WRONG!
And nowv that I have lost weight, have cheekbones, they look more prominent. Still could be the Native American blood Daddy's side denies having any of. Well people are paying more attention to me now, remember Obese people are ignored, just like we are ignored we will slink off to a cave somewhere.
Well I am having people ask if I have been abused, are those healing bruises on my cheeks? Well the last person who tried yo belittle me died 7 years ago the 4th of this month; if I try to tell them they are leftovers from pregnancy, they look at me, they look st Tomkitten, and then they shake their heads. One lady even pressed into my hand, a business card from our local battered woman shelter. Told her I really don't need it. Nobody will ever lay a hand on me in that manner, this I do promise! If they suspect my Tomkitten that way, isn't going,to happen. He would have to cook his own meals, a toaster , blender and microwave only go so far, the laundry TINKER BELL will go on sabbatical, and he does. ❤clean clothes.
So since my poor little brown spots are of General Concern, I will be visiting our local dermatologist, Dr Kathleen something, she just relocated her practice here, I want to say it's Thompson but I think I'm miss-remembering. Okay I looked it up, her last name is Rogers, her picture doesn't do her justice, everybody has a bad day, and they chose hers for Picture DAY. When she talks and appears more lively she is pretty pleasant to look at!
And I am down to a size 18, but you can see my collarbones, I have a turtle neck, if you would hug me you can feel my ribs, and a worse facet of this WLS? I now sit on my rear pelvic,bones because my lovely tushie fat pad is gone forever. I just will take my egg crate support pillow wherever I go. TK had a fit when I bought it, but it has justified the expense over and over. BABY AIN'T GOT NO BACK NO'MORE! Poor Sir MIX A LOTs he is gone depression meds, he doesn't have ME to sing about ANY LONGER!💦😧

      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
