Swanton_Bomb 522 Posted November 15, 2018 What goals (besides a specific weight or BMI) have you set for yourself? A while back my husband bought me a Game of Thrones t-shirt that I loved. He bought me, a 2X woman, a medium. God bless him, he said to me, "I dunno, you look kinda medium. I guess I was thinking of men's sizes, I didn't want you to swim in it." A men's 2X was too long, but comfortably loose on me! It was non-returnable and I threw it in a drawer, not sure why I didn't toss it. I am down almost 30lbs., mostly from the pre-surgery weight loss, and today I tried it on. It's skin tight, but I was able to fit into it. Another 30 and it will fit nicely. So that is my first goal, to fit into that shirt. What goals do you have? 5 Frustr8, Grapefruit, CyndieRI and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FluffyChix 17,415 Posted November 15, 2018 Of course I still have my 2nd Goal I am working toward. But other goals are: 2. Get off the last BP med and the extra potassium. 3. Restore my thyroid to good function. 4. Exercise 6-7x week with combo of cardio and strength training/muscle building (so I can tolerate more calories). 5. Continue to work on building a lovely full active life with Mr. F. 6. Maybe go back to school to become a "sensitivity counselor". *snort* 3 GreenTealael, Healthy_life and Swanton_Bomb reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frustr8 7,886 Posted November 15, 2018 And how did Darling Hubby fit into the Halloween Ball Gown, pictures would have been lovely, don't you think?.Oh YOU wore it? Even Better! Now on to the Little Black Dress. And it's now time for Frustr8 to burst forth in song🎶 Maybe it's much too early in the Game Ah but I thought I'd ask you just the same. What are you doing New Years, New Years Eve? You can now unstop the children's ears, noth8by to be frightened of, and all the dogs🐶 should stop howling shortly!
