Recommended Posts

I sat down in a Recliner, and instinctively went to Cross my Legs. They CROSSED !

I have not done that in years !

Guess I got some catching up to do.

I am able to wear clothes I haven't worn since 2008 when I quit smoking and gained 58lbs.The clothes actually look like they are a little loose for me and they are 2x.I wore a 3x before I started my journey.I have lost 34 lbs.

I also very recently had a plateau breakthrough by reassessing my diet and eating only lean meat (chicken) steamed veggies (organic) and oranic fruit plus salad/raw spinach (oragnic) without dressings.< /p>

I think I was eating too many soft slider foods but now that I am clear for real foods I am adjusting what I eat yet again.I have only had 1 small .5cc fill and I get another fill Friday November 11th,which will be a larger fill like a 1.0 cc hopefully!

Congrats ! Chubbywithmuscles... That's a big one..

Better to see the clothing size go down then the scale (I THINK) Then you see the difference.

We have a clothing site on the Forum if your interested in the future of getting rid of those cloths that will never fit you again.

Believe it ! No matter what size you are someone is always trying to get down to wear you started from.

I'm down to a 20 in Jeans, and most women are starting around this size. I was up to a 5x. So every little bit helps.

I just tell them to pay the shipping, and it's yours. No regrets or looking back. Just to let you know. :tea:

Doesn't that feel wonderful ! I did the same thing. I have cloths in my closet that are 14-16, and I haven't worn them in years. I'm looking for next summer, because they are cute summer cloths.

I'm wearing a 20 in Jeans now, But I have a bag full of 18s where the tags are still on them.. I am about to trip over my Tongue ! I can't wait to get into that size, But 1 step at a time right !

Got told by my coworkers, that I looked "slammin" in my size LARGE dress yesterday. This time last year it was a 2x. Ring size is down from a 7 3/4 to a 6. Also had 2 teenage Wendy's workers, come to the drive thru to check me out....I am old enough to be their mother. Best ego boost!!

I can't think of any new NSVs for me lately. Many of the same old ones keep happening and I don't think I'll ever get tired of them. :) I do love reading everyone else's NSVs though. It helps me stay motivated and makes me happy for everyone.

I had a medical NSV this week. A1C went from 7.4 in June (Pre-surgery) to 5.8 in October. According to my lab report 5.7 and lower is normal. Good bye Diabetes.

I finally hit the teens again! Bought a pair of Silvers in an 18 :). I'm pretty sure I made my last clothing trip to Lane Bryant, everything I bought was a 14/16! I got in a size 16 skirt! Last but not least I fit into fit into a size large dress I bought back in July for my upcoming trip to Las Vegas!

      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.
