Clothing Switch Over Provides A Whole New Nsv



Recommended Posts

Just spent the weekend changing over the winter clothes to the summer clothes (a new england tradition) I knew there would be some clothes that would not longer fit; but did not realize that 95% of them no longer remotely fit my new sleeved body. Rather than keep the old clothes, just in case, I have chosen to remove it all so I can't go back. I have always been considered a nice dresser and people I work with have actually asked me for my "too big" clothes - so, I have divided them amongst the people who have supported me over the past few months, put some in consignment and gave some to the homeless shelter. The experience was cleansing and rewarding. My closest is clean for the first time in years.

When I finally got my sandals ready for the summer - I realized they were all too big as well - I have never dropped a shoe size before. So off to the shoe store I go - this sleeve is costing me some money !

So many changes in four months - emotional roller coaster for sure.

Don't you love it? I have been getting rid of stuff that I put on and it's too big...it's the greatest feeling in the world. I hope by four months that I can purge 95 percent of my clothing...I still have some cute smaller clothes that are still in style...hopefully, by winter, I will need all new clothes.:)

Love the NSVs....

It is definitely expensive trying to keep up with new clothing sizes! I've found my favorite second hand stores searching for the best deals.

Is there a local support group or the surgeon's doctor office have a program where you can have an exchange.

I love the fact that my surgeon's office has once a month where you can take your larger clothes and exchange them for a smaller size. I have heard that there are also some local support groups that do it as well. It may be listed under another type of surgery, but a clothing exchange, is a clothing exchange

It feels amazing right.... I've donated sooooooo many bags of clothes to a coworkers friend who is a bigger girl. It feels good to purge.. but now I dont have much... I'm not complaining though!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
