What are your dream jeans? I'd like get some hot jeans but I feel embarrassed going to shops with tiny girls working there. I feel to old & to fat. I'm afraid if I buy online I won't get the right fit. Any suggestions?

Something cute and tight and doesn't leave a ring around my stomach. I would like some type of skinny jeans with some kick your azz knee high boots :-)

Not your daughter's jeans- these are meant to be VERY flattering ... I have a secret yearning to have my bum look good in these.

When I was losing, I liked to go to stores like an hour before they closed. The staff was usually busy doing their closing duties, and I could try on clothes, figure out size I was, etc. Also, it's not really that crowded. I recommend trying on. Not all sizing is the same! Gap and Old Navy have different definitions of what a size 6 is!

I am finally wearing my dream jeans. Now I'm a guy, but we care about clothes, too! At least I do. I wear destroyed (holes already in them when I bought them) from Old Navy in size... 33 waist! I was a size 46 waist a year ago. I haven't worn this size since the 1980s. Every day is a surreal experience looking in the mirror and thinking, "Is that thin guy really me?" I never want to wake up from this dream! Ever!

I noticed you are in the Dallas area support group. Have you tried Plato's Closet? They are a second hand store that resales brand name clothing. 90% of the clothes are current styles / trendy. They have dressing rooms. I've never felt awkward trying on clothes there.

Tell me what you mean about The Gap. I wear 4's and 6's from there, but the different styles don't all fit the same. Some are 4's some require a size 6. WTH???

I recommend going window shopping any and everywhere that strikes your fancy.Whereas I use to hate, HATE, going shopping, now it's fun. I don't always buy something but it's fun to just go and try on cute clothes!!!

I've never been to Plato's Closet, but there is one right here in Las Colinas. Maybe I'll check them out today! Thanks!

I mean, if I buy a pair of jeans from The Gap, I wear a 6. Actually, I've lost a bit more weight and I'm wearing a 4 now. But at the time I posted this, it was a 6. But if I try on jeans at Old Navy, the size 6 is too tight. So, in my experience, size isn't the same everywhere, and I always try on before I buy. Make sense?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
