NSV ... Went shopping



Recommended Posts

I dreaded this day. I knew it would come. I travel 6-8 times a year for work and was hoping to keep working at home and save my pennies until I absolutely had to buy clothes.

Well I was surprised with a travel request from boss and off to Texas am headed on the 18th

I've lost 42 pounds so far.

Many of my pants still fit with a belt and some without. I just needed tops.

I shopped downstairs in the store for the first time in at least 12 years maybe more. No more woman's section.

I started with extra large tops and found a couple float extra large dresses.

Wow

Wow

Wow

They were too big!

I've been wearing size 16 from 2002-2013 and hen was in an 18

I bought large tops

I bought a size 14 DKNY dress that fits me snugly and perfect. Thank goodness Spanx still fit

I bought one dress in extra large but am returning it. I tried it on 4 more times and it's supposed to be loose and flowy. It's just a pinch too lose going for a large

I cried in the dressing room.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
