Ok, so I guess I wear alot of workout clothes!

What I wore to Yoga this morning, which, btw, is the first time I’ve gone in almost 6 weeks! I can feel the stiffness that has set in from being away so long. Im shocked at the amount of effort I had to put in to hold some poses that were old hat to me. Not going to go this long without going again. Pinky swear.

Wow guys!!!! Is this is what I have to look forward to, I can't wait!!! I've taken copious notes of what I need to do to get here and this thread is like fuel to the fire of success!!!
Hats off peeps!! You should be beyond proud!! You beat obesity in it's face and you have the stripes of beautiful living to show for it.

There are moments though where I sit down and think "is this really possible"?? I've never been my goal weight since my teens.
Maybe this just happens for others??
But I see you guys and I believe it's achievable [emoji114][emoji114][emoji114][emoji114] You guys knock [emoji109][emoji109][emoji109][emoji109] doubt out of me!!!

Clothing question. So if you shop now for a size 6/8/10 or small top and lose another 10 pounds can you still wear those clothes like you did at 200 pounds with an x-large too or size 16 pants? How many pounds once you get so close to a normal BMI do you need the next smaller size? Just trying to figure out current verses probable future size.

It was easier when I was a size 22 to 16. As I got out of the plus size store, I noticed fit and size are different with each designer. I try everything on.

I can wear the same clothing with a ten-pound bounce as long as it’s not super fitted.

So causally cute! Which beach? What state are you in Brazil? I have a friend in Natal/Fortaleza and cannot wait to get there!

I'm at my mother's house in the Pernambuco State close to Porto de Galinhas beach. She lives in a town called Barreiros which borders another coastal state (Alagoas)...we have miles and miles of beach here and I too have a lot of friends in both Fortaleza and Natal. The northeast coast here is truly beautiful! You'll see!

I also don’t know if I should tuck/untuck or French tuck so I just wing it.

I love tucking now that I'm thin! I even take it a step further and am obsessed with bodysuits! 😂

How many dresses do you own???

Too many and not enough at the same time! 😂

@FluffyChix YES! You are not doing yourself any favors wearing clothes too big for you. It is definitely contributing to your dysmophia! You can't see how thin you truly are! (bonus, tighter pants hold in the tummy as well!) We are the same height/weight proportion (you might even be thinner now, with your relentless drive 😂) For reference, I am nearly always a small in tops, usually a 6 in pants (sometimes a 4), dresses are small, or 4-6.

      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.
