One kinda funny thing....




I keep raiding my daughter's closet. All those cool clothes I bought her that she never really liked...are MINE! LOLOLOLOL.




She has this one really awesome dark brown leather fitted blazer that I want...but so far she keeps clutching it and glaring at me.




"You can borrow it Mom. BORROW! Buy your own damned clothes, Woman! OH MY GOD, are you wearing my underwear?"


Just wait till she starts “borrowing” your clothes. I’m forever texting my daughter at college asking if she’s seen this or that item of mine. Eyeroll!

I took a few of my nice button up shirts in to have some alterations done. I’m unsure as to how they will turn out? Crossing fingers hoping I can salvage a few things. I’m not sure I’m interested in investing in a whole new wardrobe until I hit my goal.

@Jess9395 I'll eyeroll with you. One day I caught one of my favorite outfits going out the door on my daughter.
"Woah Missy", I said " If I have such horrid taste in clothing, why are you wearing that?
Her Answer "Because I can rock it, in a way you can't! Grrr!

I have gone from a size 28/30 to a size 22 in the pre op phase and have been purging as I went. I am certain I will not be back there ever again! I also live in an apartment and don’t have space to keep things that aren’t useful.

Surgery date is 8-22. Will start pre op diet 8-6. Have been cutting down and find I have lost a few pounds already which brings me to talk about clothes. I’ve done the Yo Yo thing all my life too, have a collection of different sizes.

I REFUSE to keep such a collection any more. I am and will continue to dispose of clothes I can’t wear anymore. I will borrow clothes, buy at Goodwill and discount stores just what I need and just a few things at that to get by. When I’m at my goal I have permission to SHOP SHOP SHOP LOLOL!!

Best wishes to all and keep sharing 👍

      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.
