Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

Been MIA hitting the ground running this January!... And, still running getting prepared for plastics + all the pre-op stuff. Trying to get projects in a good place, as well as general things done since the downtime after PS and my capabilities then are unknown? Playing catch up with our thread this morning.

Everyone is starting off right for the new year and looking amazing! Love the enthusiasm!

Hooray, we won the Cotton Bowl!

Dang I just briefly pulled up that Shein website. Are those prices for real? Do they get you in shipping costs? Or do the clothes fall apart after a couple washes? There's some cute stuff on there. Thanks for sharing.
They are excellently made! I only had one shirt that tore and it was some fluffy light material. Shipping is free if you spend 49$! I've been wearing their clothes for like 7 months now and every piece has held up aside from 2 or 3 buttons coming off. No big deal. Returns are free too!

Oh and the shirt that tore, I just sent them a pic and they refunded me immediately.

I just spent the last 2 hours on the Shein website. I've got 113 items in my favourites and I haven't even got to dresses and beachwear yet....!!!

OMG, I am going to resist going there. It could be dangerous!

Who am I kidding? I’m going to end up there before the end of today.

I went 90s rocker yesterday. I found a thrifted Mens tweed blazer, complete with elbow Patches, that I wore with it.

This was the day before. I love black and white stripes. OH, and my pants were pleather leggings. I’m not 100% convinced that this was totally work appropriate, due to the pants, but there are perks to being in a creative field.

AND THE BEST NSV! I knit myself these wool socks almost a decade ago, they were soooooooo small that I couldn’t wear them. I almost got rid of them, but couldn’t bring myself to. They are now able to comfortably go on my toesies.

Okay. I’ve got about 5 mins before I need to leave for work guys
I’ve worked so much since the 30th I’ve almost lost track of the day.

I’m back now, but work is still crushing me.
Started training for a half that I want to run later this year and still doing 5-7 Pilates classes Weekly
Maybe Wednesday I’ll have time to revirew and comment, but not today.

Yes. Make sure you look at the measurements. The underwear and bras are the only thing that run VERY SMALL. Everything is true to size. I am a consistent Size 2 in shirts, Size 4 in pants.

      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.
