Recommended Posts

Okay here's the thing. I'm a Jersey Girl : ) and I work for the State... I plan on having my surgery the end of January and it's COLD!!! So I'm wondering what will I wear back to work this winter. I'm eating better now and losing a little here and there and I have the 2 week prep diet then the surgery and post diet. So when I return to work I can't go in looking like a Rag Doll.... :blush: and it 's to cold to wear a dress, now that I think about it I hardly wear dresses I think I have 2 work appropriate ones :unsure: Gosh I need help! I'm starting to worry about every little thing... Blahhh

I am not post-op, so I'm no expert. But based on what I've seen and heard, my best guess would be that you're gonna be smaller, but your clothes now should still look okay. Might be looser, but shouldn't be too bad.

I will be two months out in two days, and I am down 44 lbs from my weight on B-Day. I thought I had enough in the way of old clothes to get me through the winter, but I have gone down four sizes around my waist since I started in June. I don't look so good in a dress either. But if you are talking two months, you'll be into March, right? It should be a little warmer in Joisey by then.

Lmbo @@LittleBill it will still be cold in here we don't warm up until May. Maybe I can get sweater dresses and tights. And if by any chance you decide to put on a little Black dress please tag me in the pic I can always use a good laugh. ????☺

I've been shopping in my own closet so far. Lol I'm about to the end of that though. My daughters closet is next. ..if she won't be scared for life that is. I really don't want to spend a lot on clothing I'm only going to wear for a month or two. I've been meaning to go to some resale shops, just haven't had time yet.

I need to go find an old picture. And as you might suspect, it has a story. It ain't a little black dress, but it will be along the same lines.

@@Raymia Oh yeah, I'm in eastern PA, so I know how March can be.

@@Raymia Many years ago, I got into an online argument with a very good friend of mine in real life about art. It was on a woodworking forum where we were both professionals. He was emphatic about all art needing to be appreciated, while I countered that just because it was art didn't make it good art. I wrote, "If I put on a pink tutu and danced across the stage, it would be art, but it would NOT be good art!"

Well, a whole bunch of mutual friends and acquaintances started egging me on. They wanted to see me in the tutu. So one night, when I had too much to drink and not enough to do, I went looking for a tutu picture. I corralled Mrs. LittleBill into helping me (against her will) and we photoshopped my head onto the body of some poor little girl in an online catalog for ballet supplies. It created quite a stir on our forum, and earned me a reputation for doing outrageous things. This picture is close to 15 years old.

      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.
