Never Again...

Never again....

....will I be the "fat chick"

....will I be embarrassed because I can't fit on an amusement park ride

....will I be the fattest of all my friends

....will I not be able to shop at the GAP, AE, Holister, ec

....will I constantly be looking around when I enter a room to see who is making comments about my weight

....will I feel not good enough for a man because of my weight

....will I brake a chair because I am too fat

....will I wear big baggy clothes to cover up myself

....will I be ashamed to wear a bathing suit in public

....will I let my weight hold me back from doing the things I want to do

....will I get too tired chasing my little cousins around

....will I cry myself to sleep because I feel unworthy

....will I be a fat unhealthy person!

My surgery is this Friday, Aug. 7... I am starting to get nervous but wanted to write out what I WILL NEVER AGAIN be! This is my motivation to make this change in my life! I challenge you to write down what you never again will do/think... or what you have already excluded because of your weight loss!! Good luck to all!!!!!

At least not nervous in the sense of fear it is nervous in the since of like excitement or the butterflies one gets before doing something exciting and outside the box of what is normal for them.I love your list.I just keeping thing this time next year we will all get to shop on the other side of the store. WHOHOOOOOOOOOOOO. Good luck Amanda hope all goes well.

Good Luck you guys! Let us know how your surgeries go.

I will never again shop in the big girls store. I already quit them. I get the advertising emails and hit delete!

This is one of the best post I have read! Thank you so much for sharing! Still awaiting surgery approval and as soon as I do, I will creat my list!! Its gonna be a long one...

Good luck to both of you!!! Please keep us posted!

I cant wait for my surgery

I cant wait to go into a waiting room and not worry if i fit into the seats

I cant wait to travel more and not have to use half my sons chair and a seatbelt extender

I cant wait to shop any place cuz right now all i can do is shop out of a catalog

I cant wait to get off all my meds.(and I have alot)

I cant wait to have more energy

cant wait to love myself again

I cant wait to be normal and not the fattest person around

I cant wait to feel feminine and pretty

I cant wait to not think Im gonna die before my kids grow up.

And although my husband is the sweetest man and loves me no matter what I cant wait to be thinner for him

Well, I just got home from the hospital. My surgery was yesterday and I must admitt it wasn't as bad as I had expected! I was very sore yesterday and last night but today it's a lot better, granted I am still sore but nothing like yesterday. The pain wasn't anything like I had imagined it to be, I thought I was going to be in so much pain I'd be crying or something lol. Good luck to everyone and I hope you have as good as an experience as I do. Now comes the hard part for me, NOT EATING regular food. Man, I am so hungry, it's been about 48 hours since I have ate. I just ate some jello but that didn't do anything lol. I just have to keep thinking, NEVER AGAIN... I can do this, we all can do this!! Good luck everyone.. XOXO
