Things I never thought I would say



Recommended Posts

This weekend I found myself saying things I never thought I would say:

Sat

Wow, I think these 34w pants are loose.

Sunday at the mall

Maybe I should try a Medium

On the treadmill yesterday:

Damn, I have missed running

Anyone care to add any?

I just use a pair of scissors and rotate the point until it carves a new hole.

Its fun and exciting.

The other day I got mad because something interfered with my workout time. LOL.

I never used to work out, other then swimming.

I have been saying that for the last 2 weeks.

I have been trying to figure out the last time I was at my current weight. It's been over 10 years.

That's what I did, well not with scissors but went out to the work bench with a pocketknife and made a new hole. I'd like to skip over the next size and wear the prefectly good one hanging in the closet.

But for the last 8 years I've had to buy bigger and bigger belts.

honestly believe my car mileage is better because I weight 60 pounds lighter. like 2,3 MPG better.

I keep fairly good track of my fuel mileage. I am amazed at what I have recently getting.

Your gas mileage is probably slightly better!!!

Every 8lbs you lose is like adding an extra 1hp to the car.

So if you drive the same it is taking about 8hp less to propel you!!!! Now for the bad news. You BMR works the same way....as you lose weight, you burn less calories to do the same basic things.

This XL fits great.

I can get clothes at Wal Mart and Target ( which is good since I keep getting slimmer and need new cheap clothes).

I'll see if I can jog alittle longer today.

I never thought I'd pass up on a low cut dress for an occasion - becuase it showed that I have no cleavage and my chest bones stick out, lol.

I said the other day at Logan's - "...a booth is fine..."

I know I was marveling at that a couple weeks ago when we went out for lunch.< /p>

Wearing medium size clothing is totally awesome. Especially since 3X were tight.

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
