Oh nuts & awww man. I have literally never found anything i liked there. I have sold a few of my plus size things there (but then started to just donate)

I think my tastes are too specific. I have consider poshmark for a minute but again i hate shopping online

I think I know what I need to do...

Instead of donating to good will.. etc.... start a clothes swap with the people that go to your WL Center. Most places has a FB page.... Ask if anyone needs them. It's what i do and will do again when i clean out my closet.

Ok, try not to be TOO jealous. Here I am in my super schmexy overalls 😂 The handsome fluff ball on the floor is Dimitri, a recent foster fail. You can see a couple of my current foster babies up in the cat tree.

Thank you !

Nope, I plan to rejoin you... Soon 😂

Come sit by me, comfortably ensconced in doc martens, denim, black leather, and old band t-shirts. It’s nice here.

It got way more fun for me once I got close to goal. My closet is busting at the seams, so it's a blessing and a curse. 😂

OMG this is so true. Now that I’m in “normal” sizes, the options are wide open. Like, I ALMOST want to stop losing just so that my clothes don’t become too big 😂

I’ve done the whole “capsule wardrobe” thing, and am trying to stick to basics. And everything (almost) is used and way cheaper than retail. But, uh, I’ve been shopping while cold today, so I MIGHT have 2 more cashmere sweaters coming. Wooooooops...

Good afternoon ladies. I just stopped by really quick to say have a great day. I’ve been in the kitchen all day baking. Thank you to all that said happy birthday to my love bug. I was overweight, unable to get doctors that wanted to help, with PCOS and endometriosis and was told to never expect to get pregnant. Through a great doctor and IVF I was finally blessed with my little girl. She is one of the main reasons I chose this journey of WLS. I’m off to deliver cupcakes to a class of 5th graders and bring 4 extra girls home with me for the night. Wish me luck, it’s going to be one loud house tonight. I think I’m going to sneak a little piece of cake too. 😉

Great ideas! Initially I donated to my WLS group but then I decided to donate the bulk of my good pro work wear to a Womens shelter's Return to work/ Homelessness Anti-Recidivism program.

The rest that was not even donation worthy I binned. Now I'm just putting all my athleisure wear away , hold me someone 😭

      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.
