Yeah Jules I know about the hating to buy clothes thing....if I could just wear my Horny Toad and Title Nine stuff I'd be good...but my hubby says those are too butch...comfy and multifunctional is now butch...go figure...dammit...

TBS, I as a matter of fact, like the butch look on the girls I date. Personally, I find looking too sporty when not being sporty doesn't suit me. I'm a girlly lesbian.

Title Nine and Horny Toad are probably too casual for work any way.

I'm still plus size but I know I'll be challenged finding fiting, not sleezy clothing when I get smaller. As it is now, I tried on a sweater (2x) at Target and it was skin tight. Like what fat bitch needs to be showing her back fat rolls?! I guess it's cool for young chubby women who want to look stylish. Pushing 40 though, it's just not for me.

Really finding pants that fit my odd shaped body is a stuggle. With the belly that needs to be surgically removed but the rest of me getting smaller I'm finding that I'm getting more and more picky. Back at size 30 I was happy to find something that covered me. Now I actually want clothes that feel good too? WTF.

Thanks for all the props on the weight loss this week. I tell you the bodybugg has me recommitted to the process. I'm amazed. I'm going to work really hard to lose 3 pounds this week. Being that close to -100 is crazy. Especially to have done it (I'm counting my chickens before they are hatched but) in less than a year will be really cool!

I feel that if I keep my deficit at 1500 a day I should be able to do it!

Thanks again.

I used to be sporty lol...since Iraq and the three knee surgeries I've been less sporty...<grin> good thing my hubby doesn't mind the 'butch' look. Yeah, Horny Toad and Title Nine are a little too casual..although, those Horny Toad pants fit my square/no ass and hips pretty well....

I'm liking being able to fit into smaller clothes, but I am not liking that those smaller clothes are so slutty...I want to be covered and a LITTLE stylish, but I am so NOT girly...to put a skirt, hose and heels (such as I can wear, bad knee means not too high heels) really just piss me off and put me in a BAD mood.....lolol

Am spending this Veteran's Day crying and being a mess...go figure..my Dad's birthday was today; he was a vet; friends and soldiers I lost in Iraq...hubby being on active duty and not home...just a wonky weird day for me...hope you guys are all doing well....

Thanks to all for listening to me feeling sorry for myself! Hey, has anybody else encountered the "problem" of not wanting to eat because its such a pain in the ass?? (not literally lol) I find myself barely making 1000 today, and nothing I've tried to eat seemed to go down easy...an apex brownie, strawberry streusel bar, a couple tablespoons of peanutbutter....jeez....

TB,if only I could get that to stop me from eating. I feel like I have been around this weight most of my adult life..except the last 5 years and I find myself comfortable at it. I find myself not motivated to lose more because I am feeling good here and I do like to eat. I am not exercising like I was this last summer, which sucks ass because I was eating like a trucker and still losing fast. NOW, I am not losing at all. I go this afternoon to see how much I have lost since 10-08-07. I was 228.5 then. It is a month later and I don't think I have lost a pound. To put some perspective on this here is my offical weigh in's at doctors.

4-5-07 305.5 Pre surgery, had surgery 4-19-07

4-26-07 284.5

5-21-07 273.0

6-25-07 257.0

7-23-07 248.5

8-27-07 238

10-8-07 228.5

I have done good so far, but not good enough, I guess. We will see today.

Let me know if you want a kick in the ass. I'll post some of the stuff I put on the Marchies' board.

People asked for ass kickings so I gave it to 'um. It a rather odd thread to be part of, this is home for me, the bycyling thread, but they were my first group on LBT so my peeps as well.

It got to where people where crying so much about struggling that I was afraid to post my successes...I know other monthly groups have some good gelling, if it weren't for you all here I'd be jealous of them! Ha.

      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.
