Anyone need size 22?



Recommended Posts

I'm packing up some clothes this weekend. DeLarla's getting my 18/20 tall stuff (jeans, etc); Kyleigh's getting 18/20 summer stuff. I gave away most of my size 24s. But I still have a few size 22 things I'd be happy to send to a bandster. These are not gorgeous items, just basics, including a couple of pairs of shorts, although I may finally part with the slinky lycra-blend pants and tops that have seen me through the last 50 lbs., and somewhere in the basement I have a decent Elisabeth linen suit, size 22 I think, that never looked good on me at any size but was at an irresistible sale price.

Please note that I am taller than the average bear, long-legged and pear-shaped -- not that my tank tops won't fit you, but consider yourselves forewarned. If you want a box o'stuff, let me know. And when you shrink further, you can give it all to someone else!

You know... I was tempted to jump on this when I realized this is my size NOW... I need to focus on the next size down.... woo-hoo! And I should follow your lead and start going through and get rid of some stuff...

That is so generous of you to offer.... thank you anyway.

You must be a great person...

Thank you, Zoe. I went shopping today since all I wear are hand me downs. I'm right inbetween an 18 and 20. So I bought one of each. I can actually sqeeze into an 18 (thunk, head just hit the floor.) I came home so motivated that I harnessed up the pooches and took a kick butt walk to the park, did weights and I'm downing extra Water.

Thanks for the clothes, thank you thank you. I wish hubby would get off the couch and take me dancing in my new pants. Dream on. Babs, come back!

Way to go, Emmy and D! My black jeans are on the way. I think they're a 20 tall... I wash them in hot Water for maximum shrinkage, so they might fit. If you know anyone looking for 22s, let me know.

      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.
