I like the preppy style for men. It's classy and timeless.

I want to fit into all of my old concert tee shirts! I would never wear them in public, but just to be able to wear them as lounge around shirts would be fun. I feel like my personal style will stay the same. My favorite place to shop is Old Navy and they carry the same stuff for regular and plus sizes. The regular sizes are just cheaper... wayyyy cheaper. I'm looking forward to shopping at the Gap. I love the timeless look of jeans and a tee. And being able to shop at places like Loft, J Crew, and the occasional forever 21 spree lol. 90% of the time though, I wear Chef's whites. They make these cute feminine cut pants and chef jackets and I'm looking forward to wearing those instead of the shapeless unisex ones.

Aside from personal style, the person I want to be is free and fun loving. When I hit my goal I want to treat myself by going to a music festival like Coachella. I know I could goto one at any size, but I would enjoy it more without all the extra weight holding me back. When you are surrounded my music, you gotta do a lot of dancing :)

I'll probably still wear all black, not because it's slimming, but because it looks bad ass. ????

The style I know I'm going to go for will be like this:

The only downside? The cost of shopping :P

Also, I used to have trouble finding my size on a rack. I'm finding that's still the case. What's the deal with the lack of smalls on a rack??

this ^^^^

I have just as much of a problem finding clothes in a small (or XS) as I did in a 3X. Doesn't seem fair! :wacko:

I'm discovering that I'm apparently a total basic white girl. Since getting near goal, I love to wear long sweaters with scarves, skinny jeans, and boots. Just stick a Starbucks cup in my hand and call me Becky! :rolleyes:

I'm 50 years old and wear pretty, feminine age appropriate clothes. I tend to like to be more conservative and wear longer sleeves and longer skirts. I want to get some cute cowgirl boots to wear with jean skirts. I like other boots too and want to wear really feminine dresses/skirts but that aren't too tight. I've been looking on Pinterest to find cute styles and outfits.

I want to wear a sheath dress, pencil skirt and a button down shirt (not together of course). And never have to shop at a plus sized store again. I am close but still need to wear a 14W in pants.

      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.
