Today’s with and without sweater. I consider this a victory as the last time I wore this dress was two years ago! image-0.00798702239990234.thumb.jpg.42dba62484411929587ea5d33c06071e.jpg

Wish I took more pictures on our road trip...this is all I got:
1st pic: what I wore to dinner last night, 2nd pic: what me and the Kid are wearing today (I realize now I seem to have a penchant for see-through shirts...why do I not notice the visibility of my bra when I'm getting dressed???)

Okay, today’s work outfit. I usually wear colored leggings under clothes because I am self-conscious about my legs (varicose veins). But, I’ve decided that I’m just going to need to get over it. Nobody really cares about my legs. I took this picture at work, and I can see I need to clean the mirror. The unfortunate line right at my boob is NOT on the outfit. [emoji23]
Also, I’m trying to encourage people that aren’t “at goal” yet to post some outfit pics! DOOOOOO IIIIIIIITTTTT!!!!!!

Hey now, be nice to yourself. I’m not at goal, and everyone in here has been nothing but nice. I also certainly don’t look like a hippo, and still rock some cute outfits.

Other posters aren’t at goal and still look great! We don’t need to hide in the shadows or be ashamed of how we look, at any step. I refuse to, and find the sentiment that being a bit (or even a lot) from a specific weight means that you should hide or aren’t worthy of nice clothes disheartening and sad.

Bears unite! Love your body in all its stages ❤️ Or at least don’t say mean things about it ❤️

Celebrate where you are now! There will always be parts of our bodies that aren't perfect. We just switch from focusing on our fat to our extra skin, or lack of boobs/butt, or whatever. Don't wait until you're perfect or you'll miss out on the fun. Join in!

@Sheribear68 YES! Listen to @AngieBear & @Orchids&Dragons. No need to be at goal in order to post pics. No one on this thread is, or ever will be perfect. But flaws and all, we all deserve to show off and feel good about ourselves.

Here is a OOTD, when I was about +45 lbs. I think I still looked pretty fab :)

      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.
