music1618 879 Posted October 9, 2013 Thats awesome but I feel like a failure noe that the scale has halted! I only have 25 lbs to go. Think about what you are saying. You feel like a failure - even though you have lost a lot of weight. Not sure how much but try turning your thinking around. The scale will move again, but the closer we are to goal the slower the weight loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barroshe 62 Posted October 10, 2013 I bought this awesome pair of pants 6 months ago from J. Crew making them my 'goal' pants since I had never been able to fit anything from that store. They have been in the back of the closet where I forgot about them. Found them and tried them on last night...loose!!!!!!!

Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk Can you exchange them for something smaller? I've been returning things I bought months ago that still have tags on them (no receipt returns get store credit) and then having fun shopping for nice things that fit or even buying smaller sizes (because I KNOW I'll get there). :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

life_after_gastric_bypass 214 Posted October 10, 2013 Yesterday I went to the fish market to pick up snow crabs, on my way back home with my daughter she saw a friend of hers who use to come to the house like all the time. I had not notice her friend because as we were walking I was answering a text on my phone. My daughter says mom look at rosemary, I turn to look at her friend with her mouth open and staring at me. She tells my daughter omg that's not your mom, my daughter says yes it is she is like OMG and jumps up and hugs me and says she couldn't even recognize me...at that moment I felt on top of the world...and while we were walking away she texted my daughter to say omg you mom looks hot I wanted to cry was so happy to hear ands see my daughters friend. 3 Doing It 4 Them, bloreorbust and CrisG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terry1118 1,274 Posted October 10, 2013 Today I actually fit into all the 14's I tried on! I didn't buy any of them because why would I if they're going to be too big in a month. While shopping I tried on some 12's and I got into them, too! Of course I looked like an over stuffed sausage but I DID get into them. So that's what I bought - two pair of slacks, sz12. I bet I'll be wearing them by Thanksgiving! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) I have not been a sz12 since 1985! Picture me, grinning from ear to ear! :-) 3 momlambert, life_after_gastric_bypass and jaye1464 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
