Topic: RE: Going to concerts after WLS
What's the soonest after surgery that anyone has gone to a concert? 'Cause right now, 2 months out, to the day, i've got tickets (12th row center) for Nickelback. And i will say, i'm a little worried/cautious.

I know how you feel! I have been playing bass guitar in an all female garage band for about 3 years and before my surgery (9-8-03), I would just be so uncomfortable on stage and sweat would get in my eyes and I felt like everyone was judging me cause I was so big. It is just so amazing how much better I feel and I imagine I am a better performer since I feel so much more at home on stage now since I am 124 pounds lighter. I don't mind being in the spotlight now. It is so much fun being able to wear those short skirts too!

That's great! I love music and have been seeing shows my entire life. When I got fat, I stopped going. Since my surgery 3 months ago I have lost 55 lbs and am really stoked about getting back into the music scene. Who have you heard recently?
Topic: Going to concerts after WLS
OMG - I just have to share... Since my WLS, I have gone to about 6 concerts and had a blast! I went to maybe 1 concert a year pre-op... but always felt uncomfortable and ugly because of my size. Now that I am post-op, Ive been to many concerts and I am sooo excited to go to more!!! Thank you WLS for helping me to be involved in life - and not jus****ching from the sidelines.
