So I had THE BEST TIME playing dress up tonite. Me and the Kid went wedding dress shopping!!!

I must have tried on about 20 dresses, and here are a few of them. The last slide is my favorite so far. I went in thinking I wanted a tight sexy dress and left in love with a ball gown of all things.

OMG it was so much fun....

How fun! My personal fave is #3

Dang! Too damn darling!!! Hells, I cooked yesterday and watched Hallmark Movies. I couldn't even get myself into a festive sweater! :D When Mr. F. chose TV trays for TD, I said, "Score!!! No adulting today!" So flannel pjs and sweatshirt were worn. LOL.

Pssssst! You look chic and adorable figure btw. Love BOTH outfits!! And the dogs!

Okay so literally 90% of my wardrobe is from clothes mentor (the higher-end consignment store) or through eBay.
What I’ve been doing is going to places where I never thought I’d be able to buy clothes (black and white, Ann Taylor, Talbots, Chico’s, etc...) and try on their clothes to get an idea of the sizing, then start searching to see if anybody has it for sale.

I love the clothes mentor philosophy: they simply will not accept anything that is >2 years old and shows any wear and tear.

Good idea because I actually went to White House Black market recently and bought a couple of things. The whole store was 30% off that day so I got this cute athleisure kind of top. It’s a tank top with a cropped turtleneck like thing that goes over it. It is absolutely gorgeous. Anyway, my plan was to take good care of it but somehow it ended up In our regular laundry. It got washed one time. One time! It looks like I’ve had it for 10 years. This damn top was like almost $80 regular price. I was trying to treat myself for losing weight. I’m more of a target, Walmart shopper. Was not happy with the way it came out of the laundry. It is still cute and I did get a beautiful white turtleneck that I wear regularly. I have been washing that on gentle and it is holding up much better.

Is clothes Mentor online?

You look sharp and fit!!! Love the outfit and the trench! And I don't think it looks tight at all, but you do have several layers underneath so that could be why it feels constricting. It just doesn't look constricting. It looks marvey girl!!!! Muah!

Okay, so this was my OODT on Friday. The reason it was great is because we went to Arcata completely unprepared for a day in the snow. No clothes, boots, etc. But, because I’m now a “normal” size I was able to borrow pieces pretty easily and cobble together a nice cozy set-up. Very few people will know what a BIG DEAL it is. But I know you guys will. In addition, the actual snow play was so much easier! Just walking in snow. I avoided it for years because I was always wet, cold, and struggling with exertion due to my size and not being able to find decent gear at prices I could manage. This feels like a major milestone.

      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.
