Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

new NSV haha kinda



Recommended Posts

so my parents are coming up this weekend so hubby and I decided to go through EVERYTHING in the house and get a truckload of stuff to take to the goodwill (no joke either hehe we had 3 bed house now 2 bd apartment no room!)

so tonight i decided to go through my closet... I found a pair of jeans that i wore pre-surgery that were size 34 I held them up to my body and HOLLY cow im like half the size of them now lol its soooo crazy.

I have only bought two pairs of pants and a few shirts since after surgery and 70 lbs ago but as my last NSV when my nurse laughed and said it was time to retire my fat clothes i had to.

The problem now with money so tight and STILL trying to get a job i cant afford to buy anything since we are barely paying the bills right now. Its kinda sad to see my closet empty but happy at the same time.. what a rush of mix emotions eh?

anyhow i keep treking i just had a job interview hopefully it works out alright but i am absolutely terrified that I will get it for the fact i have to dress professionally and im about 1/2 size to big to fit into the dress pants that Walmart has not to mention the fact were dead broke. Its a scary situation cuz i need the job to buy clothes.. but need the clothes to work at the job hahaha

shrug good laugh i hope hehe I'll have to take a pic of me holding up my "fat" jeans!!

YES!! I vote yes to that one!

I love Goodwill. I can't take any kiddos with me, and it takes lots of time to methodically shop the racks, but it's a good place to start shopping for those work clothes! Someone your size is cleaning their closet now!!!

Right now I'm about 26/28, pants tend to be 28 or 30. but im loosing very quickly so im like always between sizes its seems.. some Walmart stuff i can fit into 26w but then i also have a pair of pants that are 24w that fit fine (but not in good shape so i cant wear outside of house) shirts i wear 2x/3x is amazing compared to the old 5x lol

I'm going to ask my mom if i can borrow some money and go to goodwill or somewhere and see if i can find *anything* that would even work for a month or two.

Hello, Katerzz. There is a wonderful organization called Dress for Success. http://www.dressforsuccess.org/ I haven't used their services before, but my understanding is that they help women with no/low income by providing business attire. Possibly free. I would highly recommend contacting them. Best wishes to you.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
