poll - best thing, worst thing

Best thing - many, probably being off all (11 of them) prescription meds and the ability to move fast.
Worse thing - hmm, constipation is terrible (Miralax daily helps), but that was intermittently a problem pre-op, and a bony butt so that now it hurts to sit on any noncushioned surface!

 The best thing is just being able to wear normal size clothes and being average.  The worst thing is all the hanging skin, you can only tuck in so much.  I waved at my neighbor this morning and realized that my batwing was waving too.  Blah! :(

the best thing will be me being able to traverse through an airport and fit into an airlplane seat to visit my daughters and my grandkids again,,

the worst is not being able to share my journey with my mom and Sister,,they are very catholic and very Italian and see wls as a mutilation of the body

Hard to come up a best  thing - is it freedom from the urge to eat large quantities of food or is it being able to "fit" in the world ---(airline seats, chairs in general) - let me have two best, ok?

Worst?  I still have days - although much less frequently now - where something just doesn't digest - and I vomit repeatedly until every crumb of the offender is out of my body.  Happened this week for the first time in probably 2 months - the offender this time?  Okra.  I eat it all the time, but THIS time it just wouldn't digest.

Best- The weight loss (of course) and all the activity I can do freely now.

Worst- I miss my old friends wine and Diet Coke

I have a glass of wine now and again, trying to figure out a way around that... but it's not the same and I think I need to accept that. I don't even like Diet Coke any more... but BOY, we sure had some good times in the past and I miss them!

Also feeling more comfortable in my body and more healthy overall is the best thing.

Worst thing....poo issues.
