Sadly I don't know anyone who could use them . If I did I'd just give them away. I just realized I have a bag somewhere with more clothes that don't fit. Lol

My surgeon gave me a card, I don't really use it though unless I see something good on the menu for kids.

congrats on your upcoming surgery!

Thank you all for your suggestions, I think I'm gonna take them to goodwill. I know when I would go there I wish I could have found clothes in my size so maybe there is someone out there who is thinking the same.

Just a question, what have you all done with your clothes after you started losing weight? I went from a 7X to a 4X and I have clothes that I need to get rid of. Not sure if I should take them to Goodwill or if there are other options. Some even brand new that I was too big to wear but now too small.

I just went today and got a couple boxes of Quest bars. Also they sent me a $10 off coupon for my birthday if I spend more than $10. I have saved a lot since having my card.

I was wondering why the hell everything either had me super pissed or feeling like I just watched a Hallmark commercial. Glad to know it is pretty common.

@@joatsaint no wonder everything gets me emotional! lol

I am still trying to adjust, it seems like my emotions are all over the place and I'm 7 months out! I could understand if it was a Hallmark commercial all the time but geez.

@@mshenry11, are you drinking Protein drinks? It's still hard for me to get in enough actual meats for Protein. I don't really care for the protein drinks but at about 30g of protein they do help. I know you can start having hair loss, not sure of what else happens.

@@Sunshine3073 I'm with you on this. I hate exercise and I keep telling myself I need to start yet I can't get motivated to do it.

@@jenn1 sadly I have already had to show my DL to a Highway Patrolman and the last thought was my DL weight. lol But yes it feels good to see that I'm below that number now! @@Micdruss I think at the time I put the listed weight I was about 50 over myself.

wow this is very disturbing information. Going to have to watch what I say.

Just thought I would share that today when I was cleaning out my wallet I looked at my DL and noticed that I am officially 25lbs below the listed weight! Obviously like many others I always lied about my weight on my DL. LOL but now I can really say that I don't weigh that!

This was my first NSV! It is a great feeling to once again have a choice of seating when going out. There are plenty more NSV's to come!

This is ongoing for me as well, I have to always remind myself to eat slower and chew everything. Not like before when you could just eat eat eat. Clothes shopping for me is difficult still, I by a size smaller than I used to wear and I feel okay with it. Yet people tell me they are too big on me and I now have several clothes that I bought too big. All because I can't see it myself.

@@borg/assimilated love the username! That's a great NSV, I was sitting in the chair the other day and pulled my leg up to my lap like I used to do years ago. I didn't even notice for minutes until it hit me. I hadn't been able to do that for the longest time.

I had the BBQ and I think the sour cream and onion ones and they were good. Just had them once though because I was never a chip person but good amount of Protein.

@@GigiRH YES! I go through this as well, sometimes I'm trying to eat and other days I keep getting hungry. I don't understand it.

@@ANewMe9/21 thank you, now I gotta work on exercising. lol

congrats on the upcoming surgery!

Thank you! Very excited and looking forward to a new beginning! How about you? Where are you in your journey? I'm seven months post op, down 114 lbs so far.

@@ANewMe9/21 congrats on your upcoming surgery!

I noticed that if I didn't drink enough water I would get nauseous and constipated. Are you getting enough water? Seems like a choir sometimes to get in enough.

@@OutsideMatchInside good Lord thank you for that information!
