Hahahaha… so awesome that you kept that all these years. Even awesome-er that it still fits (may even be a little big? Lol).

@ChubRub

$12 for that entire haul??? I think I need to go shopping with you. My fave is the sleeveless ruffle top 😍. And that bikini top is va-va-voom!

@JMJames92

Nice. You remind me of Prince Harry...anyone else see a resemblance? lol

Oh thank you - I've really missed everyone!!! Just not enough hours in the day with three active design projects in three different cities, house sale preparation and a potential move. We are contemplating a new adventure in a new location. ;]

These are the ones I got. Fits like a glove:

Here is me wearing it (size xs), but I'm also wearing my stomach binder in this pic so it looks more high waisted than it really is. The bottom leg hem ends goes past my ankle bone:

LOVE THIS! Thinking Rod Stewart's ballad....Do you think I'm sexy, come on sugar tell me so... mr.sss is surely singing that tune. WOW. Looking FABULOUS.

We do alot of hiking. My legs tend to get cold so I'm always borrowing one of the Kid's snowpants. They are way too long for me and I have to tuck them in my boots. So i ordered me some "slim-fit down filled pants" last month and they finally came!

This is probably the first pair of "snow pants" i've bought for myself in 15 years.

Based on sizing chart (from China, i think), I ordered an XL (an XL?!?!?)...but they are a little snug on the lower legs so I probably should have gone with an XXL (an XXL?!?!?).

On the bright side, the down filling makes my butt look plumper (and higher!) than it really is. Maybe I should look into some down filled underwear....

P.S. I realize you can't really see the pants in the pics of me wearing them, so including a shot of them on the floor...

P.P.S. They kept me nice and warm on this afternoon's hike!

The losers (aka the returns):
Faux leather pants - look like a trash bag!
Skinny jeans - way too high of a waist, super mom jeans
Lantern top- not horrible but just doesn’t do anything for me

The return process is easy and free, so I’ll be ordering from again! Fun way to try new clothes and very cheap!

I like the jeans and this shirt (tucked in, or belted)

Hard to believe, but they are actually marketed for women. They go up to size 6XL....

Florida - Where they pretend Covid doesn't exist! LOL!!

Seriously though, the thrift stores I have been to are safe with masks required, social distancing, plexiglass at the cash register, etc.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
