Am tip-toeing again to artificially add to my height...!

Went "farmers-marketing" with Mr. this morning...also tried to do a mini-hike in some woods, but I was wearing flip-flops, so it didn't last long.

P.S. I am realizing that alot of my clothes look the same...cropped fitted tops, tight pants, solid colours in black/grey or blue/khaki/ or white (or denim). Methinks its time to do more shopping and expand my wardrobe...

Taking our amazing next door neighbors to dinner tonight. It is unseasonably cold with snow flurries. Wearing some new size 0 jeans which I would like to dedicate to @ms.sss. They fit, even by your standards! 😂🥰🥰

@ms.sss you said exactly what I was thinking looking at @WishMeSmaller - far out Brussel sprouts. Abso Fing fabulous @WishMeSmaller.

Lined up for 105mins for the CJ Hendry exhibit ‘Straya’ this morning. She unloaded 70 tons of sand in the exhibition hall & everyone got a pair of thongs (yes the bottom of mine did print the F word in the sand). It’s amazing what she can do with a pencil. I knew I should have kept Catherine’s yr 6 illustrated creative writing book. Her early works could have funded my retirement.

@Arabesque and @ms.sss, thank you! 🥰🥰 ☺️☺️ I am so in love with finding clothes that fit this new body of mine (completely self absorbed, I know 😂😂). Apparently I did well with the jeans 🤣🤣

@Arabesque, those flip flops are awesome! Sounds like a good time, and now you have perfect, (IMO) shoes for walking on the beach 😂 I would love to leave a visible trail of f-bombs to compliment the ones coming out of my mouth. Hahahaha

Out on my first date post separation and pending divorce. We’re getting drinks and visiting a farmer’s market. Probably should have picked a dress, but the sidewalks in the area are known to be real ankle breakers.

OOTD scrubs edition. My hospital provides our scrubs. The tops have a colored band at the neck, and the bottoms have a colored draw string. The colors indicate size. Dark green = 3xl, dark blue =2xl and so on. At my highest weight I wore dark green band tops and had to buy my own pants because the 3xl’s were too tight. Now I’m a yellow which is small and may even fit in pale green which is XS!



Boy did it suck to have to advertise my size on my work clothes, now I’m happy to be in the yellow crew :)

image-0.0030994415283203125.jpg

That’s awesome!! I wear scrubs at work too and they are colored according to size! I’m in a XS (yellow for us!) and man it’s a long shot away from the XL (tan) that I use to wear. I remember seeing others in yellow and thinking I wish I was and NOW I AM!! I still can’t believe it.
Way to go Kristie!!

        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
