New to this thread, hi beautiful people! This is my outfit for heading out to walk my dog and run some errands. 7966759C-91DA-492E-930B-E351674A1806.thumb.jpeg.8bd81655c2e229bd04ce243b94390821.jpegNever in a million years would I have worn a crop top in public before now! Also strategically posing to hide my arms heh heh heh

I feel that clothes sizing struggle so much... I feel like I buy a new pair of pants or shorts and then by the time I get the chance to wear them they’re already loose. I’m bleeding $$!

Ok, workout gear (only to go out, I wear a super big tank that hangs like a tunic). LOL. And yes, my leggings need to be downsized to mediums. I think they would hold my flab in more. These are XL. (Tummy still pouchy from surgery 2 weeks ago.)

Ok. Its time for an intervention.

You really need to realize/internalize/bask-in-the-awesome-ness that you are NOT big anymore and do not need to wear the larger sizes. Your leggings are way too big for you...you aren't supposed to see wrinkled fabric gathers at your knees, nor have gapes at the ankle opening! You can skip the medium and go straight to small lady, maybe even extra-small.

Your boobs in that sports bra, however, are fabulous.

Ok! LOL. I'm trying really hard to get it. :) TY for your comments, they are all really helping me reframe my stinkin thinkin brain and SOOOO sorry to take over this thread. I am gonna go work on it and quit posting so much here. Swearsies!!! And I can't take much credit. It all goes to the PS on the foobs. He did a great job on my 3 reconstructions from BC. Double mast, they stay that size regardless of weight gain or loss. But they do look pretty bodacious in a smaller body than they did at 287lbs. That's for sure! :D (maybe one of the only perks of it. LOL!! hahahaha)

      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.
