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 :)

      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.
