How's the wardrobe?



Recommended Posts

My largest jeans are no longer an option! They are TOO LOOSE and look horrible! :) Oh darn, I need to go shopping!!! I'm already a huge Goodwill shopper because we have a couple of super stores in our town, so I guess I'll see what I can find this weekend.

I wish I could go shopping. I've lost almost 35#, but my pants only feel loose, Not to big that I have to hold them up. Some shirts are big but I can still wear them. I happen to be a person that has to lose 50# before anyone notices or I notice. I cant wait to do some shopping.

Congrats! and have fun!

I went from a size 20 to a size 14 very quickly. I tried staying in the bigger sizes longer to save money, but I looked horrible & just could not go to work like that.

Money is flying out the window on new clothes lately! NO complaints from me though!!!

I have gone from a 24 to a 16 since my surgery and the 16's are getting roomy.

I love goodwill and thrift stores. I try to find at least one pair of shorts or pants second hand to save money and I just wear them constantly. When I am at home I can wear the baggy stuff with a belt pulled tightly or things with draw strings.

It's a burden I am glad to have!!!

Today was chilly enough that I had to put on jeans. The 24s looked silly but thats all I have right now so I went and got a belt with the last of a gift card I had. I have a feeling the belt I bought will really come in handy these next few weeks!

Ladies congratulations on all the shopping sprees. I am waiting til Christmas money to go shopping. I may have go before then. This weekend while cleaning up my parents spoiled food mess from no electricity for seven days, my pants fell down. Thank God I had on spandex shorts underneath but what a great feeling to have my pants literally falling off me. :redface:

      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.
