Beach and People Watching...
Aug 01, 2012
This is me and my 19 year old daughter...I am 2.5 years post op.....We returned recently from a VERY much need vacation at the beach...which I could live at if given the opportunity....
One thing that I noticed being at the beach ...since I am a people watcher and social butterfly.
I noticed that I seemed to check people out more than I used too...I think I have become more hyper sensitive to shapes and all being a WLS post op. One thing I noticed too...that obesity is the norm now a days...
There were all shapes and sizes and now that I am smaller than I was, I find that it is at times harder to find "normal" sizes. I find more things in my older size than anything...BUT being on the beach there were so many over weight people there...
I will also add that there are a lot of MO that are very comfortable in their skin and wore the smallest swimsuits...I could never have done that before WLS ...hell I was terrified what I looked like...which is why I posted Perception....
I know how I see me is so very different that how others see me...which with regular clothes you can camouflage or hid flaws...in a swimsuit you hide nothing.
Which brings me to this question...what the hell do guys look for as a turn on...I don't want to ask any one who has had WLS or knows that I have had WLS ...I think that muddies up the answer. If I find the right person to ask I will let you guys know what was said....People that have had WLS have a very unique perspective about looks...ya know what I mean.
