Thanks! I got it off Amazon (brand is 90Degree) I also just ordered another Jacket from Athleta that was on clearance. It's a size XS (which is why it's on clearance!!) but I'm hoping I can squeeze into it. Will post pics when it gets here! I definitely have a shopping problem, but man it's been way too long since I enjoyed wearing clothes!!

You deserve it! 💕

Hand-me-down SCOoooooooooooRE!

The Kid cleaned out her closet (again) and filled a garbage bag with clothes that she doesn't wear anymore. Naturally, I went through it and put a few pieces in my closet cuz these clothes are still good, man. And bonus points that they fit me, lol.

Here's a pic of 3 pairs of jeans that I poached. For funsies, I got my biggest pair of pants currently in my closet for comparison. Now these PJ pants aren't even as big as my biggest pants (I recently cleaned out my own closet and donated all my big clothes so no pic for comparison)...these leopard print pj pants were actually part of my previous horde of "skinny clothes"! At my biggest, they were too small to go over my hips/stomach. Craziness.

Was such an unexpectedly beautiful day yesterday (23 degrees, probably the last nice day until 2021), that I got Mr. to drive us around to nowhere so I could turn up the music and wind the windows and sunroof down.

Wore stuff from my new pile of hand me downs. The Kid calls this top her old “frolicking” top. Said it made her want to skip around. I totally get what she means.

P.S. Im cheating by tippy toeing in this pic cuz i was too lazy to go get my shoes downstairs and bring then up again for this pic. Just pretend im wearing 2.5 inch wedges!

Sorry for clogging this thread again...

Swim class this morning. I don’t have a proper one piece swimsuit for actual swimming...just this wrap one for show, really (aiming to get a nice speedo this weekend...). Anybody else hate swim caps??? I feel like I look like a penis.

Is it just me or is everyone’s view of Ms.Sss as a penis greyed out??? I would have loved to see that 😂

Love your jean haul. I guess that makes them hand me ups not hand me downs. The ones with the pinstripe make your legs look miles long - not even including your tippy toes.

Gotta love a good pair of cosy slippers, Cheeseburgh - I live in mine. Only around the house of course. No wandering down in them to buy groceries. 😁 Your legs go on forever! Good luck with your move.

Ms.Sss your penis head shot has appeared today. Wondered if it had been censored yesterday 😂. Your arms look amazing.

Appointment with my surgical team this morning. This was one of my favourite labels but their smallest size is XS & consequently the dress is a little big around the middle (hence me sneakily holding some fabric at the waist at the back - tee hee.) At least it is shaped so it actually looks ok when I’m not pinching the fabric.

Thanks, I didn’t get taller darn it. It must be a good angle!
The bench is actually an antique carriage seat. I’ve had it at the foot of my bed forever, the realtor moved it into the sitting room for staging. It’s a really cool piece, I bought it years ago. And no, I’m not painting it!

I love that dress too @Arabesque !

Unfortunately it would require being totally pulled apart. ☹️ It has multiple panels & inserts to give it that puffiness & shape. It looks fine when I’m not pulling it in just better when I do. 😁 Tried it with a belt but it didn’t work.

That is an amazing piece Cheeseburgh. Can’t believe it was a carriage seat. Was it a random find or an inherited piece?

      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.
