I haven’t put on an “outfit “ in so long!

<...>

I’m the type of person that tends to relax, or let up if I get too comfortable.

Ugh. You’re telling me...as i sit here in my pj’s and mismatched socks (i cut a hole in one of them as I’m tending to a sore toe), watching cooking shows, and eating 1/2 a biscotti. (58 calories, lol)

Le Sigh.

I love being able to ‘dress’ but I also love coming home to my comfy, knit/stretch pants, shorts & dresses. Went to dinner last night & took ages to find something to wear - yeah I get the irony. The going out things I wore last summer are too big & literally falling off. Losing 10 kg is truely dropping two dress sizes! I don’t know whether to Celebrate or cry. Looks like I need to refine my wardrobe again sigh!

Had appointment with my glaucoma specialist today so I got to ‘dress’. My doctor is simply delightful & a real gentleman. He’s about 70 & I fear every time I visit he’ll tell me he’s retiring. Today he made me a cup of tea & showed me clips from his favourite Bollywood movies in between all the eye tests. 😆

Now I’m home, having another cup of tea, in a knit dress (summer here whoo hoo), on my couch, watching a repeat My 600lb Life & reading this forum - perfect marriage.

Love the toe nail polish Ms SSS - perfect colour. Hope the toe gets better soon.

Love our viewing habits & routines. I watch British Masterchef (celebrity & professional too), British Bake-off, Great British Menu & British Bake-off Professionals when I eat dinner. (Mmmm? Sounds like I’m a bit of an Anglophile.) Quite happy to watch them over & over too.

I can only watch British Bake-Off after I have eaten because it makes me want to suddenly make desserts at 21:00 hrs 🤡

Would you believe that toenail polish was from a pedicure I got last september?! LOL (with no chance to get a refreshed one cuz all the salons are closed) And yeah, my toe pain sucks, its been cutting my runs/walks super short...though I probably should not be running/walking at all...unless I am wearing open toe shoes...le sigh.

Anyhoo...I believe I remember this dress and oohing over it last year? Methinks it looks a little bigger on you? Or is that just my imagination?

Well it was super cold... so i wore the emerald green sweater dress (again)..... boots. dinner we shared (stealing description straight from menu) Hudson Valley Fois Gras pan-seared and served over a wild mushroom ragout and port reduction, Filet MR and scallops with Gruyere & chive scalloped potatoes... dessert was a petit four. New diamond earrings studs (not the loops) and diamond "righthand ring". If anyone can help, i'd love to know more about the ring. All i know is its diamonds and blue enamel in white gold and that's it's older.

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
