Omg I scored. No yoga mat and I didn’t find much in my size for cheap but I did find it in the next size down. I got 2 pairs of leggings (nice ones that I like with the pockets and the high waist), 5 pairs of athletic shorts that are that moisture wicking material, one T-shirt and one dressier shirt, and one pair of comfy pants to wear around the house that should fit now. All of that for $19!! One pair of the shorts still had the price tag on them and they were $26 and I know them leggings aren’t cheap either. Any one of them items would’ve been more than $19 and I got 10 items. It’s so much fun to find the deals and was extra fun today to see the cute stuff in the smaller sizes to look forward to. I think I’m gonna get a couple storage totes and just buy stuff when I find it at the thrifts and toss in there then go through it ever so often. Definitely check out the secondhand stores if you can. Women are always going up and down with their sizes so they have so many nice clothes.

Omg lucky! What a fantastic score!!! We don't have thrift stores here 😭😭

We do however, have those budgeted stores which I visited but barely found anything nice. I got 2 shirts but were still abit tight on me which were like 3 USD each..

I’m really frustrated and need some help. My dietitian was sick this week when we were supposed to have our appt (not frustrated at her, people get sick).

What I’m frustrated about is that my appt was on Tuesday and Wednesday was my 5 week out mark, so we were already pretty much a week behind. I want to start on soft foods and have tried a few, but I’m also nervous because usually the dietitian usually gives me a food plan and foods I should and should not eat.

What did you guys start soft foods with so I can feel more confident trying a few more things until our next appt on next Tuesday? I have tried hard boiled eggs, lentil Soup, and tuna/chicken from a can.

I get why you're feeling frustrated—it's tough when you're ready to move to the next stage and don't have the plan you were expecting. It's great that you've already started with things like hard-boiled eggs, lentil Soup, and canned tuna/chicken. Those are solid choices! While you're waiting for your next appointment, you could try some soft foods like mashed avocado, Greek yogurt, or even well-cooked veggies. Just take it slow and pay attention to how your body reacts. You’re doing awesome, and your dietitian will have you back on track soon enough!
