NEW! 2008 Shrinkin' Vi's Trip Planning Thread!!



Recommended Posts

Hi gals

was shopping over the weekend... Target has swimsuits out. I am going to get one very soon. I usually get Tankini and they have nice boy shorts and skirted bottoms....

they also have very cute coverups. Lucky for me I am wearing a lg/xlg depending on what they are so I'm all over that for our trip. They are little cotton sundresses. I'll probably get a lg and might even get a few sun dresses for our trip.

I love the quality of target's suits .... just thought i would pass that along

Must be a great minds think alike moment---I bought a new suit at Target last night! Kinsey had so much fun at the rec center, I want to be able to take her---so needed a suit. I have to be able to buy separates. I need a much larger top! I ended up buying a nicely fitted halter styled top with this swirled design on a black backgroud, in a 22/24. Size depressed me! BUT it covers up well, and give me a little length in the top that I wanted. The 18/20 fit but when I bent over or wiggled around, the top was not as comfortable, and I ended up with bulges out the top of the cup area. Then I bought a size Large boycut short bottoms for it. I wanted someting I could wear with chasing her, and not worry if I picked her up I was going to expose anything!!! I wanted to be able to take her down the big slide etc. and not be worried about what I was showing the world!!! This fit the bill!!!

I keep putting off buying more clothes, thinking I will drop the last of this weight....but at the rate I am going, the only way I am going to lose 20 pounds is to go shopping in England....

Enjoy shopping~~

Kat you are funny.

I hope to get a slight fill today and at least get to onderland - then i'll get a suit

Kat, I have a 20/22 halter top, it is black with teal and purple around the top, I'm going to bring it with me. I can't wear it because I'm boobie deprived. I got it last year, wore it to Myrtle beach 1 time, had surgery when I got home and that was the end of that. JC PENNY, $50 top... my before pic was me at myrtle beach the week before surgery.

      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.
