Happy Thanksgiving to all our fashion forward friends in country and out! I am so very grateful for a platform of like-kind individuals that uniquely know and understand our journey from nutrition to clothing! My best to you and yours today, and always. My warm and cozy outfit for Thanksgiving dinner out this afternoon. I loved the unique horizontal channel stitching vs. normal vertical styles. And, a cropped sweater for us shorties! Yay. Haha.

Great jacket @kristieshannon. What shade of green was the other one? Could be an interesting add to the wardrobe too. No one says you can only have one. 😉

A forget arms @Butterflyeffect. I think yours look pretty good to me. And your red dress is lovely. You look like you own that red carpet.

Looking gorgeous as usual @Sophie7713 Love the pink quilted jacket & the head to toe winter white ensemble … heavenly. Bobby is looking as adorable as ever.

Bit warm for boots here (31 degrees C today - summer is a comin’). But because we get northern hemisphere winter fashions here in summer, I did buy these black suede ankle boots. They’re very neat around the ankle & have elastic sides. The designer adds the little stud to rather heel of all her shoes as she has a beauty mark. I love that. I really want some knee length boots but they’re all too loose around the calves & slouchy. Where were they when my legs were bigger.

I’m on the hunt for some good knee high boots. I got some and I appear to have the same problem: boots are too big in the calves (exact opposite problem I had before 😂.
i ordered some new ones off Amazon and I’m returning the other ones. If you need really small ones you can try Clark’s. Their calf opening is 14 inches.. too small for me…. But the 19 inches the other boot I had didn’t work either. I’m in the middle 😭

Man you go away for a bit and everyone gets sexier and sexier.....

We ventured out to Atl Nov. 11th to see The Rolling Stones.... OMG it was amazing. We were scheduled to go a couple of years ago, but it was postponed due to a Hurricane.... Then Covid, so we didn't get to go. This time the Mr. made it happen. We flew to ATL for the night and flew back the next day.

He has been online shopping and I told him he needs to stop.... (but not really). He bought this little "ribbed" number and i saw that you all posted your ribbed dresses..... so here's mine. I couldn't get a good shot of dress and boots so they are separate. The boots were bought a few years ago when we first started dating and they fit so much nicer now. The boots are black, don't know why they look gray.

@bayougirlMrsS
Wow! I will echo arabesque “va va voom” you look amazing!
I love the boots too! I haven’t found a pair that fit me. Even with losing all my excess weight my calves are on the bigger side.
@sophie-I LOVE that outfit. So very fall! Wish we had colder weather down here to wear more things like that. (Texas)

On behalf of all nurse, doctors, and other medical personnel. Please consider limiting your gatherings. Wear a mask. Get your vaccines. COVID is surging again, people are dying. Here’s my holiday outfit at our COVID testing facility.

Looking stunning in rib dress and boots! Heals especially sexy. Concert looks amazing!!! So glad you were finally able to attend. With new spikes - we decided not to attend a David Foster concert tonight. This was going to be my outfit. Just kidding! These are doll clothes my seamstress crafts and sells. They are just adorable. Are you a red head now? Send a better glimpse?!

how cute are those.... such talent.

No, not a red head.... I think it was just the light in the office. My mom would kill me (even at 53) she is not a "red hair" fan. I love red hear.
The concert was amazing.
I finally got my first vax....

      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.
