Ah I have the saggy butt:(



Recommended Posts

Last night I had this sudden realization- I only have ONE pair of jeans that fit me even closely and they are still a little big and leave me with a saggy butt but I don't go out much so I wear em anyway.

Well, I start college next week. EEK. I'm gonna need some new pants before then. I don't want to wear the same pair to class every day but at the same time I don't want to spend much on new ones and I'm really broke after paying my tuition:( Sigh.

Our thrift stores here suck. I've been there several times but rarely find anything. Who makes a good fitting but cheaper jean?

This should be a good time of the year for bargain shopping. After Christmas sales are usually pretty good and get even better a little later.

do you have any girlfriends that you can get clothes from? if not, Walmart and target are great places to look. the clearance rack is always packed with good deals. i am not banded yet but have already started gathering clothes from girlfriends. they are more than willing to clean out their closets. oh, another place is ross. that's my favorite store.

Thatgurl.

Try JCPenney's I went and got new dress pants because I had the saggy butt too. Everything was on super duper sale. I got 6 pants and a cardigan for $100.

We don't have Marshall's or TJ maxx here. My friends are either way bigger than me or way, way smaller. LOL We do have one of those Lee factory outlets about 45 minutes away. I'm thinking about trying that.

try freecycle. www.freecycle.org

I just got 7 , yes 7, bags of clothing this past weekend from a freecycler. I pulled out what I wanted and re-freecycled the rest. All I had to spend was the gas to go pick the stuff up.

Surprisingly, you can find jeans at Macy's and Belk's for the same price as Old Navy. But I get my jeans from Ross. JC Penney and Kohl's are great recs. Do you have a thrift store? I'm thinking about going in the next time I drop off my bigger clothes to check out the jeans section.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
