Good morning all you amazing lovelies. You all look fabulous. Sophie your smile always makes me smile. I took the morning off to go to my daughters Christmas program at school. I hope all of your days today is a blessed day. All of you inspire me to keep on.

You look absolutely amazing. So beautiful. I think the spank give you a sense of looking slimmer. But I bet with the spank off you would look just as amazing. Great job.

You all look amazing. Sophie those Christmas pictures look so cute. I also love your hubby’s office decorations. Welcome @Dtrain84. You sure know how to put together an outfit from head to toe. Great style. @ms.sssI’m jealous I can’t wait till I steal my daughters clothes I bought a Sherpa sweater and the sleeves were too short, so I had my little one try it on, and it fit her perfectly. @AngieBear I love all the professional outfits. You look stunning. my OOTD is super cheerful. 😀

You ladies are amazing. Thank you for all of the compliments on my dress. It sure helps boost the way I look at myself. I was getting compliments at work today still from coworkers on my dress. I just wish the hubby could have told me at least once I looked nice. You would think after 17 years of marriage he could tell me I at least looked nice. @GreenTealael I bought the shoes at Kohl’s last year. They are really comfortable. BTW I agree I want to go coat and boot shopping with you. All of you look great. I didn’t take an OOTD pic today, but I did tonight. 😉❄️ it started snowing hard on me on my drive home tonight. I had a package on my doorstep when I got home with my Black Friday purchase. New fleece jammies. I’m nice and warm now.

What a fun night I had. I got so many compliments tonight. What a difference a year makes. At my Christmas Gala last year I just felt fat and ugly. This year, although the dress was way out of my comfort zone, I felt great. Just look at the difference in our photo booth pictures side by side.

Good morning. My OOTD is my standard skinny jeans, boots and a top. It’s my go to. I’m anxiously waiting for a sweater dress to be delivered that I ordered on Black Friday. Have a great day.

Good morning lovely ladies. You are all looking great. Sophie, you always look great, and so well put together in anything you wear. I agree those khaki pants aren’t right for you. You need a little looser around the thigh area. But that jacket is so you, that was a great find. Angie, that ski wear is so adorable on you. You look so slim, and just happy. That’s what this is all about. The rest of you I can’t keep up. I love the travel wear, football night outfits and out of town outfits. Yesterday I bought this sweater and shirt without trying them on. Both are size small. The sweater fits good, but the shirt is a little to big. But I have to wear it because I don’t have any layering shirts that go with this, that actually fit. I know such a problem to have. I’ve lost 3 of the 5 pounds I gained this past week. Holidays are so hard. But I just have to stay vigilant during this season. I hope you all have a great day.

Good afternoon ladies. I just stopped by really quick to say have a great day. I’ve been in the kitchen all day baking. Thank you to all that said happy birthday to my love bug. I was overweight, unable to get doctors that wanted to help, with PCOS and endometriosis and was told to never expect to get pregnant. Through a great doctor and IVF I was finally blessed with my little girl. She is one of the main reasons I chose this journey of WLS. I’m off to deliver cupcakes to a class of 5th graders and bring 4 extra girls home with me for the night. Wish me luck, it’s going to be one loud house tonight. I think I’m going to sneak a little piece of cake too. 😉

Good morning ladies. I’m ready for my one day of work this week. You can’t see my shirt in this OOTD, but it’s special. My baby girls last day as a 10 year old. I hope you all have a great day.

Oh my gosh not many know what psyllium is. My surgeon put me on it in August, and he said mix with water or yogurt. Neither worked for me. I found Trop50 was the best way I could figure to mix it. I am going to try this tea mixture, I love the idea and not all the added calories and extra crabs from the OJ. Thank you.

Thank you. I always wear my hair down long and straight. I was thinking either a low side bun with a few curled tendrils or down with waves. Last year I was 40 pounds heavier and felt miserable at the gala. This year I can’t wait to show off all my hard work.

Thank you ladies. You all are so great, and uplifting. @Sheribear68 I would take your bonus room any day. What a fun way to make a closet for you. Sophie you look great.  I love the athlesiure look.  My favorite for the weekends.   @FluffyChix thank you.  I would love to wear heels, but my foot and my podiatrist would kill me.   I’ll have to wear boring flats, I can’t even wear a pointy toe.  😭. I’m with you on the 500 Calories today.  Yesterday I ate between 3-6.  I have to eat dinner or I’ll hear it from the hubby.  I broke my fast with a Colby jack cheese stick and a turkey stick.  Then had to take my psyllium with OJ.  It’s something I need but has so many carbs in it.  Then dinner was pulled pork I had in the crock pot. About 500 calories.   I plan to do the same today, up till Thanksgiving.  Who can resist a little indulgence.

Good morning lovely ladies. I haven’t been posting much because I just have been feeling fat and self-conscious. It started when I got my winter gala dress in the mail. My hubby said it looked good on me, just don’t gain any weight. That hit something in me. So I started IF on Sunday. I was down to 135 this morning, and tried on my dress again. It is way out of my comfort zone. I need honest opinions please. Can I pull this off? Then a picture of my OOTD. It’s supposed to rain all day, and snow tomorrow. Winter is here.

I know a lot of you are freezing. Stay warm and comfy. It’s supposed to be chilly here in the south west today. Yesterday I had the perfect dress picked out, but I put it on and it was too big. So can’t go wrong with a cardigan and tall boots. Today I’m wearing my warm cozy boots. Have a great day ladies.

So I had to change my pants before I left today. I would have gone gravy pulling up my pants today. I think these pants and boots look much better.

Good morning ladies. Nothing exciting here today. Just a basic sweater and black work pants that have gotten baggy in the last month, even though I haven’t lost any weight. I was looking at cocktail dresses for my work gala coming up. I found one that flavored at the waist, and the one I’m going to post. My hubby said the black one for sure. It’s way out of my normal, but I was looking for sleeves because of my bat wings. 🤣. What do you all think? I ordered it, just way out of my comfort zone.

You all look great. @ cheesbrugh I think accessorizing is great. I don’t do it much, but always look envious of the cute accessories people wear. @sillykitty love the outfit. Your legs look great. @FluffyChix. I agree you butt looks amazing. So today I felt like looking my age. 38 and I think I look great. Although I’m not sure about this dress. I saw it online, and had to order it. I hate that where I live I only have Walmart and A small Bealls to buy clothes in store. So I’m never sure how things will fit. I love the dress I’m wearing, just not sure about the length. I think it would look better with heels 👠, but I can only wear flat shoes (stupid foot). What do you all think?

You all are looking fabulous. I jumped on the jean jacket band wagon. My old one was to big. So I just got my new one delivered last night. It’s a small, a little big, but will work great with sweaters. Have a great day everyone.

Good morning it’s another Monday. I was unsure if I should order this top a size small, but it fits. With my size 28 jeans that were my favorite in 2012 before I gained a lot of weight back. Well they fit me again. YAY. I hope you all have a great week. Happy November. Thanksgiving and Christmas is my favorite time of year. Im just not looking forward to all the potlucks. Being in Administration at work we get invited to all the department pot lucks. I stocked up on 15 pounds of sugar to make goodies I won’t eat. But I also stocked up on healthy dishes to bring as well. A plan, it’s the best I got to battle all the fall and Christmas goodies.

I am loving all the Halloween fun. I am loving that I transferred to HR recently. My job today was going to all our clinics and taking pictures of all the decorations and costumes. It was such a great day. Also all the tall boots are so great. I haven’t bought a new pair n the last 2 years. I think I’m in need of an awesome pair of new boots. Look at the Christmas dress I ordered today. I’m so ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Everyone is looking great. We went to my daughters fall festival at school last night. She was my little wizard. I also won the raffle for an original shoo fly painting. Isn’t it pretty?

I love Albuquerque, I’m there a lot. Turquoise is so fun to shop for. I’m guess living in New Mexico I have to love it. If you get a chance go to old town and look for pots. I have so many of them, it’s a bit of an obsession. Those pieces you got are so beautiful.

I am 8 years out, and I am just wondering what vitamins you all still take. I currently take Bariatric Fusion chewable multivitamins, iron gluconate, D3, B12 injections, and psyllium husks. I had to have an iron infusion a couple years ago, my surgeon says I don’t absorb iron sulfate anymore. So dealing with a normal MD was not helping my iron rise. I also have a vitamin D deficiency and B12 also. Another problem I’ve had is with my fiber intake, so the only thing that helps me is the psyllium. My labs are finally where they need to be. I’ve just been wondering where others are at and what is still important. I’m 8 years out of RNY and finally feel like I’ve figured it out for my body.

Good morning all. It was a busy weekend. My hubby and daughter were in an old west shooting competition. My daughter out shot most of the older men. It was great. I’m off to work. Have a great day all.

@Sophie713 you can absolutely wear boots soon. I’ve even worn them with tank tops when it’s warmer out. Good morning again. It’s almost Friday.
