Everyone looks so fab!!!

@Sheribear68 You are absolutely shrinking in front of us! Congrats on 10s!!!

Thanks! 💕💕
I’ve got IF to thank for much of my success lately. When my surgeon told me at my 6 month visit that I’d lost over 75% excess fat and that I could maybe expect to lose 4-5 pounds a month for about 4-6 months, my answer was “CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!” 😂😂

Okay so tomorrow I’ll post a pic of a dress I picked up for the opening of an art exhibit (complete with featured artist) when we go to my MIL house.
Jeez, I had to go buy a padded bra just so I’ll be able to keep the top part from falling off.

On a positive note, the bra is a 36b.
Never in my life did I think I’d be “36” anything.

Woo hoo!
I’ve had this shirt for over 6 years and this is the first time I’ll get to wear it on game day!

Thanks for the compliment, didn't realise I had a great cleavage!
Very jealous of those that can wear boots, I can't wear mine anymore my legs are TOO skinny! I look like a little girl who's raided her Mum's wardrobe. It's a bit of a problem as it's cold wear I live and not sure now what to wear with dresses or skirts in winter.
I have just discovered another problem. I'm a bit of a hoarder and though I do give lots of clothes away to Op shops I can't bring myself to give the good stuff away! I was sorting my spare bedroom wardrobe today and realised that I now have evening and cocktail wear from the last 30 years, most of which fits ( some is too big) and nowhere to wear it. I don't work, rarely go to fancy events and I live in a small country town. Evening gown and wellington boots to do grocery shopping could look a bit strange!

Thanks for that!
Honestly I think I’d be “okay” with just another 10 pounds to get me solidly in the 150’s.
Last time I weighed I was 163.4, which was last weekend.
One more day and I’ll have worked >90 hrs in 9 days and I’ll have a day off!
Waiting for Friday am to get on the scale as my poor feet and legs are puffy from all the standing. Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised to be 2-3 pounds up and that’s just something I don’t want to see after I’ve worked my butt off so I might even give the weigh-in a solid miss until a week or more from today.

Tomorrow after work I’m on the hunt for a bra that’s gonna give me some boobs.
Hubs and I are going to Bartlesville to visit my MIL and go to an art exhibit and throw a football party at her house.
I’ve got a cute cute dress for the art exhibit, but the top is pretty large.
Lol, I don’t even want the fake boobs for vanity— I think I’m going to need them just so the top part of the dress stays on!

I skip weighing myself when I think it's going to be an upper. No need to be blasted with something I already know, only to make me feel worse.

Happy Friday everyone. Here’s an old dress I haven’t fit into in a couple of years. It was right when I wore it last, now it’s loose. I hope you all have a great day.

Update: I weighed myself this morning and I’m down from 163.8 to 162.2
Considering my life these last 9 days, I’m still smiling and happy over that number.
Also, had a killer Pilates class early this morning and drinking a Protein Shake while we’re on the road as to minimize the damage I’m going to do tonite.

Va va voom !

You look amazing and look at those legs. See the shorter length dress is definitely more flattering

Thanks! I’m truly beginning to hope that once I hit my stretch GW of 144, my legs will actually look better.
I’m 18 pounds away....

BOOMER!

@Sheribear68

As someone else said, you are absolutely shrinking before our eyes!

I think your "chubby leg" perception come from your pants not being fitted though your calf & ankle. Because you legs look amazing in that dress. (Oh, and I wear a molded and stuffed bra all. the. time., my bf calls in false advertising 😂)

(Just got a text from my mom, she's apparently at the OU game! She hasn't been to a college game in decades, so strange coincidence 😲 )

@KaysMommy

Great shirt dress!

I consider shirt dresses as skinny 2.0 clothes. When I first got to 8-10 sizes I wore everything fitted. I need to see myself "thin". But as I dropped more weight and being skinny felt more normal, I branched out to looser fitting clothes, including shirt dresses.
