    It is so odd to fit into some things. I can fit into a vintage dress from the 50's that I have held onto for 20 years, hoping to fit into it one day. That was a trip!

    I finally weigh less than my hubby! woohoo (I totally don't care that he is more than a foot taller than me! lol) I also fit into the sweater I wore on our first date again and the same winter jacket too! It just feels great to be sliding into these clothes from 3 or four years ago and seeing them fit! I am also 13 pounds away from 100 lost and I will be able to go zip-lining! I would love to hear everyone else's NSV's too!

    My daughter's carrot cake got me, in more than one way. I was up 3 lbs (this is why I weigh EVERY day) and I woke up at 2 AM Monday morning with a screaming Migraine. Too many sweets!!! I'm already on the road to 'recovery'- down 1.5 this morning. Got in 95 grams of Protein yesterday, so I know that helped. Back on track, which is what is so good about this tool. It sure makes it easier to get back where we need to be. Good luck to y'all!!!

    Lane Bryant and Torrid have been able to rip me off for years, now. Torrid a clothes are just as expensive as LB but they're even crappier in quality; they won't last.
    I wish there was a plus size retailer that was fashion conscious that didn't take advantage of larger shoppers who don't have other options for semi-decent clothing.
    Ugh, I can't wait to be free of them!

    My pre-op weight was 325 and now I am 249. I have had a relatively easy recovery/transition, no complications. I just don't tolerate certain foods and have been feeling my restriction a lot. As far as words of wisdom, follow what the doc's/nut's say! Lol don't rush yourself into eating your old food choices, we fo need to change these to be successful. Check out the world according to eggface blog for shake recipes and for some healthy recipes for later on. If you have any question s, feel free to ask specifics.

    jen1211 got a reaction from Kristina J. in What did you tell people?   
    I told people the truth, but i'm not a good liar and I just don't feel right lying. I also have a few other girls at work who had it done and look amazing, everyone was pretty supportive of the one girl and there was some talk that the other girl was not big enough. She was about 195 I believe but only 4'11", so every time I hear someone say something I'm honest and say hey, you don't know what it's like and that is a lot of extra weight for such a tiny frame and a lot of times people take a second and think about it and start to get it. I have had people ask me why I did it and I am blunt, I was over 300 lbs (which a lot of people didn't know) and I couldn't breathe and was sick for most of the past year. I want to live for me and I am really not too concerned about what others think in general. I know that the most important people in my life are supportive and that is what I need. Best of luck to you in whatever you decide.
