NSV - Something Nice Fits Me!!!



Recommended Posts

I am invited to a party on Friday night - in a posh hotel! And staying overnight! And for once, I have accepted - 80lbs ago, I would have refused to go, making up some excuse as I had absolutely no confidence....and in the unlikely event I would attend, I was forced to wear something "flowing" and black, probably with some sparkly beads on it, that a 70 year old woman would find ageing!!! So, I now can go into Principles (www.principles.co.uk), my favourite shop from fifteen years ago, when I was last slim, and wear something glam and funky! I enlose pic of top I bought in UK size 20!!! (USA size 18!) It's their largest size but hey, I'm in the store!!!

Whatcha think???

Very sexy, but I don't think I have lost enough weight to fit into something like that yet. :)

That really is awesome! Congratulations on your new found confidence and getting out and living life!

Aw thanks everyone!

Penni/Pat - the top is 100% Silk and cost me 55 Euro which is about $72 - I don't know if they ship to the US or not, but I can bring you guys over anything you want from there....Or buy it for you now and mail it over...They have really gorgeous stuff

I'm wearing it with jeans or black trousers....dunno yet! I'm really excited!!! There will be a group of girls there, slim, blonde, in fab designer outfits AND I DON'T EVEN CARE! I feel so great these days with so much weight off...

Black trousers, with boot leg cut and pointy toed boots...I watch too much TLC "What Not To Wear" and have NO fashion sense whatsoever, so you really don't have to listen to me...HA! kick the slim blonde designer outfits butts, girl! I can't wait to feel as good as you do...

      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.
