Returning the khaki bottoms - feeling they too clingy and not so flattering made for a taller leg + slimmer build. Agree? I really need a nice pair of petite all purpose khakis! Any suggestions?

Maybe pair of heels will help? (in RED!)

Btw, LOOOVE the denim jacket!!!!!

I don't know.... they just never left. The first weight loss was 89lbs... they stuck around... now this one and 31 down.... still there.

Blessing and a curse. I find they make me look larger than i am. but my husband loves them.... hehehehe

Weather front coming in tonight into the 30's over next few evenings... So, running out today to replace all my gigantic PJ's and robe from last winter. Outfit for a holiday dinner this weekend.

Love the denim jacket (can I borrow it? 😬) not so much the khakis (but cannot pinpoint why). But the fact that you don't love them is enough for me, you have impeccable style.

Oh, I'd just LOVE to wear heals (good idea!)... BUT had a serious boat dock injury on left knee a few years back. Since then, it was progressing into osteoarthritis bone on bone. Dr. Orthopedic says no heels and attempt to mimic barefoot as much as possible. That accident on a client's boat was the BEST thing that could have ever happened to me! My wake-up call to such denial, insanity and un-health coupled by tragedy, heartache and loss we've all experienced. Like... HELLO Sophie!!! The full brunt of 269+ pounds landing on that left knee. Can you even imagine!? I'm very happy to report with the weight loss of 121 pounds and counting... the knee has stabilized and no longer degenerating, at least for now. Not shy, for here is the pathetic condition I allowed to happen to my body. Wow, simply ridiculous when I look back. Looking forward, the GREAT news is we are each forging ahead to our best selves. A new path AND I could not be more proud of us - thankful and honored to be a part of OOTD.

Omg that jacket! I love it.

Ok, today’s oodt is accidentally artsy (crooked). And I think my selfie game is craptastic. The pictures Andy took look so different, even in puffy winter clothes. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Those are the coolest slacks - are they stretch velour fabric? Your sweater variety and ensemble in varied colors are great. This black one is really flattering... I suspect CA is cooling down this week, too.

      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.
