Too tight? too short?



Recommended Posts

A little worried that my t-shirt is either too tight or too short for my current weight. Honest thoughts please?

Thank god for this forum! I have nothing but men and boy at home to ask these types of questions and we all know how much they hate when we ask them questions like this!

Perfect!

You know what is intersting is I am digging out clothes that I wore late winter. Some of them I felt very self conscious about back in Feb when I hit goal - like they were too revealing or something. Now I put them on and wonder what I was thinking - I look great! HAHA Part of the dismorphia i had was always feeling like i needed to cover up, or i am too old to wear something or whatever. What came along with that is when I wore something form fitting, or a little shorter I felt a little foolish or something like "who is that old fat lady kidding" sort of thing.

I think posting here for wardrobe feedback is a great idea. So many of my girlfriends are overweight, married and just plain stodgy. They wear black brown and gray unisex kind of clothes (fleece and jeans, the Seattle uniform) and so I don't really trust their judgement either...LOL I want to look stylish, but not outlandish or ridiculous if you know what I mean.

I know EXACTLY what you mean. Last thing I want to be is that 40-something woman trying to look too young. But I don't want the "Mom" look either. Can't wait until I hit my goal weight to re-define my style. As it is, I wear black pants to work every day. I'll vary the top, the jacket, etc., but it's black pants daily. Partly because of travel, partly because I don't have to think or worry about what to wear, partly because I'm not comfortable covering my rather ample bottom in bright colors :)

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

    • buildabetteranna

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
