Spring Shopping Here I come!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

OK, so I'm going to Florida in two weeks, and had to get the summer clothes out early (not to mention the fact it was 71 degrees in Boston yesterday!)......and to my surprise NONE of them fit!!!!! WAY TOO BIG!!!!! I have been so frustrated since I have lost over 50lbs and have only gone down 1 jean size and 1 bra size and can wear most of my other winter clothes. Different story on the summer stuff though! Guess I really pork it up in summer (historically) as all my summer things were bigger than my winter things. Anyhow, they are all gone now, and I have some serious shopping to do!!!!!! Anyone wanna go with?

On a side note, I was playing with my Bracelet the other night while watching TV -- you know the one, it hasn't been off my wrist in over 7 years, (even during 2 c-sections and lapband surgery) because it won't fit back over my hand, and suddenly I was holding it with my other hand! I didn't even realize it would come off!

Well, at least if I'm not seeing some SVs, I have a few NSVs going on!

Happy Spring everyone!

These are the BEST though.

Our bodies show us something different more often then the scale.

Thank God!

Have a marvelous time! New clothes are always fun but even better when they're smaller! I tend to wear my clothes looser than a lot of people so I'm not yet needing to shop for new ones, but I can't wait! And I am noticing smaller things, like my feet are skinnier and my watch is looser. So we have to enjoy those NSVs to the max! Shop till you drop, and ha ve fnu!

I never got how you could lose inches and not weight but I certainly do now! It is incredible isnt it?

I'm going shopping in the next few days too, yeehaa! Its getting cool in Melbourne now and nothing from last winter fits me, even Tshirts and long sleeved tops, they're just gaping.

Enjoy your shopping, at least it's kind of in season - I'm going to Byron Bay in September and it'll be the dead of winter, no idea where I"m going to get warmer weather clothes from in Melbourne in September. Perhaps I'll have to shop up there, lol.

      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?

      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.
