Legs please!



Recommended Posts

This probably goes down as one of the oddest post BUT sometimes you have NSV and never realize that's what it is. I have been crossing my legs for months now (comfortably ) but today we took a picture! Why? Just because I can and it serves as a reminder that not all victories are associated with a number. I showed you mine now show me yours!! (Legs people, legs!!) or just share a NSV if you have one.

@@treblecutie23 Thank you! That's another thing I'm trying to conquer. I'm new to heels too so I practice, now that I can cross my legs I'd like to not break them if at all possible...baby steps!

@@glitter eyes Thank you! It hurts! I don't know if there's some trick to it or what? The only time I ever wear them before was for "dress up" wink, with a side of TMI lol! This leaving the house in them is dangerous stuff still.

Yesterday, I bought:

Misook knit pants - size small

Ann Taylor Loft jacket - size 2 (yes, I know -- vanity sizing ... but, but, but!)

BCBG slim-fit slacks - size 8

Bite me!

@@VSGAnn2014 Geez! You're tearing it up!! Size 2?! Did you ever think that would be possible? I think I would have to drop 25 more lbs to be a 2. I'm a 8 right now.

I've decided I will never play the " I feel/look fat game" that the skinny girls always played. It sounds ridiculous! I'm just going to be happy with "me" size.

LOL! I'm a size 8, too. :)

Unless I'm wearing the vanity-sized clothes from Talbots (size 6) and from Ann Taylor (apparently, a size 2!). Seriously, the clothes from those stores (and banana Republic and some others) are notoriously over-sized.

      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.
