You know you lost weight when



Recommended Posts

It happened to me this week. All of my size 26W-28W, 3X clothes were so loose I could no longer where them in public so I went out and couldn't believe it when everything I bought was 16W-18W and 1X! I am still looking at the tags thinking these can't possibly fit, but they do!

And when child does a subtle brag on social media by telling her friend to step back while taking pix of the two of us...so the whole body shows.

When you mention to the family that you'd like to lose 10 more pounds and your kids say Mom! You don't need to lose any more weight!

And when you wake up in the morning and stretch when you get out of bed and the shorts you are wearing fall off.

You know you've lost weight when...

You ask to borrow your teenage daughter's size 6 lululemon workout pants and consider NOT covering your a** for the first time ever because it actually looks kinda hot for a middle aged woman! Lol. I crack myself up... ????

When you don't bother putting away the sewing machine any more, because you are constantly altering clothes and taking them in, until they no longer look presentable.

When you no longer look for the equipment in the gym facing away from the mirrors, but actually enjoy seeing yourself as your muscles become more defined and lifting starts looking good!

When not only your bottom fits in your swivel desk chair, but your arms and elbows too! (Inside the arm rests that is).

Your pants fall to the ground in public.

OMG!!!! That totally happened to me yesterday! I was wearing a half-slip under my skirt, and when I was on the elevator, I looked down to see that the slip was on the ground. I had coworkers in the elevator with me and was mortified.

      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.
