weird body shape



Recommended Posts

i am getting frustrated with my stupid body shape. i have lost like 37 lbs and am only down like a pant size, maybe 2, depending on the pants. it sucks! i carry most of the weight in my stomach area and now it hangs even worse then before. to fit in the waist the legs and butt of the pants are huge and look funny. a better fit there means too tight in the waist and i get the spillage muffin top look which is icky too. i know i shouldnt complain, i am losing and eventually it will be catch up, its just frustrating.

Hey, I have the same problem. Just try to be patient the next few months. I have skinny legs but a big waist (I'm and apple). I've lost close to 50lbs and notice my double chin is gone, my legs are skinnier and I have lost off of my boobs. Still a big old waist. When I have lost weight b/4, that's the way it always went. Eventually it will come off around the middle.

I just ordered some yoga pants from Champion and Victorias Secret. VS has them on sale right now for 2/$40. I got them the other day and they are great. I ordered the XL or now and L or later. I love them. Was able to dress them up with a sweater, etc. (Cannot tell when you cover the elastic waist that either of them are yoga pants). The VS pants came in talls (yeh) and in lots of colors.

Good luck...looks like you are going great with your weight loss.

I have no idea what is going on with my body. MY stomach hangs over worse than ever also. Then I have the whole hanging man boobs going on here too. Then there are the thighs. I anm not sure what is going on there, but my problem is the opposite from above. I have to get my pants bigger in the waist so they are not too tight in the thighs. I pray every thing will even out sometime soon.:)

I am apple shaped also with the big waist. I found a pair of pants in my "skinny" closet that still had the tags on them. I tried them on and they fit pretty good. I noticed one of the tags said something about a 1" expandable waistline. It made all the difference. I'm going to keep looking for this expandable waistline. They were Dockers for women.

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

      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!
