I attended an out of town conference this weekend. Since it was in the 90s, I left the sweater I usually take to conferences in my room (and left my wool wrap at home). Of course, the conference center was freezing. It finally occurred to me I could buy one of the sweatshirts they had available on the merchandise table because it would fit! I still got sick but at least I got a new hoodie sweatshirt.

Congratulations! I went to my campus bookstore and bought a MEDIUM school hoodie last week. I couldn't believe it. I'm so happy for you! :)

What a feeling!! I'm not quite there yet.....but it won't be long! I just bought a pair of Jennifer Lopez boyfriend jeans at Kohls in a size 20...,I'm currently in a 22 in most brands....I brought them home and they fit perfectly! Love love love!! I always hated shopping before... I'm afraid there has been a clothes monster created via WLS! Btw ladies and gents...Kohls has some awesome deals on their clearance racks right now!

Super NSV, but remember that a sweatshirt is inappropriate interview attire. :rolleyes:

I am not planning to wear it to a interview. The conference was an annual meeting for a grass-roots community activist organization ("activist summer camp").

awesome NSV! I took one of my nieces to see a movie sunday afternoon and realized I am going to have to start bringing a sweater to the movies - even in a long sleeve tshirt I was freezing! and i never used to get cold...ever.

Very cool NSV.

I was hugely relieved when I could finally....finally shop in virtually any store and buy clothes. So much more variety and way cheaper than the big & tall stores......or in my case, the bigger & taller stores.

No longer have to fear losing my bags on air travel. If it happens.....no worries.....a quick trip to any mall and clothes are replaced.

Very cool NSV.

Hope you get well quickly.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
