Picking New Outfits - Loving It! : )



Recommended Posts

My sleeve is in 3 weeks, May 8th. I am doing this to get healthy of course, but..... I can't stop daydreaming about the possibilities out there. I imagine myself wearing these cute outfits. So... I started to collect pictures of clothes and outfits that I want to wear as soon as I can. I know it's silly and vain, but it keeps me going and focused. I'd like to share with you one of my favorites. I'm so tired of wearing not what I like, but what it fits. So if you have a pict of that "perfect outfit", share with me. I'm having so much fun doing it?

I see that you're a jeans girl too! I just bought 4 pairs of expensive jeans at a consignment store (Paige, Citizens of Humanity, Lucky, and Seven for all Mankind). I have been wearing all the 31's and 32's! The 29's are still a couple of months away, but I am so happy to be happy about what I wear! I think it's great motivation. Good for you!

I was just talking about this yesterday. My surgery is May 6th. I was telling the support group that in order to get through the post-op discomfort and recouping, I will be on the computer "window shopping" for new clothes. I have a big family wedding in September that I am looking at dresses for. I have a vacation to the Bahamas in February that I am looking at bathing suits for. I think that should keep me focused on doing what I need to do during this journey. I like your thinking!!

I have an entire board on pinterest of "what to wear". Most of the outfits are dream outfits for post weight loss. Lots of fun "window shopping".

      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.
