I just have to tell someone......



Recommended Posts

I was out today shopping for a new dress for a wedding. I went into Macy's and was looking at some dress when I see a dress I really like a lot. The colors where great looking on me but here is the biggest news that I just gotta tell some one. I tried on a 20 thinking this was the size I was in but nope so I went down to an 18 and this one was too big as well. So my mom got the same dress in an 16 and it fit! I just could not believe that a 16 actually fit me. I was so happy that I started to dance right in the dressing room. I have not seen this size since my youngest daughter was born in 1986. Yep that is right 1986 over 20 years ago. :tt2: I just had to tell someone else besides my mom and DH. He also said I am looking so good and keep it up.

OUTSTANDING!!!! My daughter took me shopping for MD and bought me a size 14 jeans. I haven't been a 14 anything since she was a baby and she was born in 1980!! I remember loosing after my youngest and being happy to get down to an 18. Great job and keep it going.

Saturday must have been the day for great shopping experiences! I went looking for something to wear to my 40th high school reunion...I mean, these people haven't seen me in 5 years so I wanted something to make a big splash. And, I found a fantastic outfit .... and it's an 18/20 as opposed to the 26 I would have been looking for. Went to Dress Barn and the sales clerk that helped me was absolutely the nicest person .... helped me pick something that made me look like I have more waist than I do. I was so happy with that outfit that I bought several outfits! And one of them is just a little too tight but for the first time in my life I went ahead and bought it KNOWING that in a couple of weeks it will be perfect. Dang, this feels great!

Congratulations!!!! That feels SOOO awesome doesn't it!??? Today, I pulled out three pairs of old jeans because the ones I've been wearing were too big (24s) and I was thrilled that the largest of the three (I tried those on first) F-I-T!! They're 20s. So I totally get how thrilling that is.

Gosh - can't wait til I'm in a 16 too!!!! Course, by then you'll be in like 12s or 10s at least! ..... lol.

Cheers to us all!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
