New job... new clothes...

About two weeks ago I started a new job which meant I needed to get new clothes ASAP. I was trying on old suits and dress and jsut laughed at what I was seeing. It was like I was leaving behind a person who never wanted to be there. When I put on my large skirt and my medium top this morning I was reminded of what I used to wear and how hard it was to be cute and find cute clothes that were not matronly in my size. Today I am in a Vera Wang skirt and Target top ( HAHA- you have to skimp somewhere :tounge_smile: ) And I have on 3 inch heels - another plus to losing wieght- you can actually wear your heels all day and not have to bring them to the cobbler after a week to have caps replaced.

 

I hope everyone is doing well.. my next adventure will be swimsuit... and for the first time I am excited to put one on. WHAT!!! I never thought I would say that.

 

 

Well keep it up everyone- as alwasys it keeps getting better!!

Hi, KEtlinger Glad to hear that you are making great strides. Just have a few questions, since I have been struggling lately. When were you banded? How much weight have you lost? How many pounds did you lose on an average monthly? And last but not least, how much exercise played a part in your success???
