iamworthit 208 Posted November 5, 2013 I agree! I hate this which is why I stick with only a couple brands. Usually Levis and Maurices. I love eddie bauer and Levis. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrisG 70 Posted November 5, 2013 Last night I felt like just being a bum. I wanted sweats and a tshirt. Since i haven't bought new one since way before surgery, I expected them to be falling off. I put them on and they fit perfectly. I took them off and checked the label. They weren't mine! They were only large!! Must have been one of my kids or husband. I was so happy. 1 melhealthy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nnaddour 73 Posted November 6, 2013 I only had a few clothing goals going into this. One was that I could wear knee high riding boots. I bought 4 pairs and then returned 3. The thrill was in zipping them over my jeans. Another was that I wouldn't wear the same dresses as my elderly overweight aunts. I'm 30 they are 60 it's been embarrassing since my early 20s. I bought an Xl dress I'll be wearing to a party on the 23 and I look hot I must say. well my husband said it too lol I'm in my aunts size 14 jeans from a size 22/24. Her closet was cheaper than buying this phase of clothes I need. And I took my grams Xl peacoat rather than replacing my 3xl coats for one that prob wouldn't fit next year anyway. Loving life, this decision and all of you!! 9 kloveburd, Dorian, rlm34 and 6 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lirri 40 Posted November 6, 2013 Added a new profile pic because the photo galleries are down. We had to get head shots at my new job for the company website. This isn't the headshot, just me at my desk after they put on makeup, which I never wear. Love the job and love the energy I get from things falling nicely into place. I was awarded the "Spirit" award at work during the month of September for the bike commute challenge at work. I have a 20 mile ride one-way into work each day and I hadn't been on a bike in 20 years! They gave it to me because I embodied the spirit of the challenge and inspired others to ride. What an honor! 8 LessofKat, Princess Sarah, Sparklette and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kellybelly_rny 9 Posted November 7, 2013 I bought a hoodie years ago that never fit me so I just hung it in my closet. I pulled it out and tried it on. It fit and it zips :-) But then I started thinking...maybe it stretched out from hanging?? So I washed n dried it. It still fit and zipped. I'm still pre op. Sw was 341...down to 298. Hopefully surgery in January. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajustice 484 Posted November 7, 2013 Being described as tiny! 3 x the last few days!! Also knowing the very girl who told me once that..." You have such a pretty face, I bet you would be beautiful thin," I'm now the same size as her! 1 kloveburd reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
