Jealous of everyone's cooking abilities. When I get back to real food, I have to up my game.
Four 1/2 years out. Day three of liquid/pureed foods due to a minor surgery (non stomach related) Wow I'm surprised that my restriction is back. I'm not cranky or ravenously hungry.

re: rings, I highly recommend these spiral ring sizers until you reach your ultimate size. That way you can wear the rings and not get them resized until the end.

my glasses are also too big (I've had to start wearing my spare pair, which are tighter), and my pants too long. My wrinkles are definitely starting to show now that my face skin isn't as tight. My cross-body purse hangs lower on my body. The seatbelt in my car no longer scratches the bottom of my neck - it sits lower where it is supposed to. And a ton of other things.

I found a cubic zirconia ring to wear while in weight loss mode. I waited until I got to my goal weight to resize my set.

Get well soon!

Awesome! Thank you Healthy for sharing. This is making me feel MUCH better. I have been in the hospital twice before and both became extremely complicated situations. My hospital bill (8 day stay) for my gallbladder removal was $108,000. The other occasion I had to be life flighted out of state to give birth to twins. That bill was over $200,000. If something like that happens to me this time it would financially devastate me. Hopefully all goes well. I am in desperate need of a breast reduction and want to get off of pain meds for my back. I will keep thinking positive!!!!

I've gained 15 pounds waiting for my surgery date. I think it's the last suppers and things like that. I'm now on a better track trying to lose the weight before the end of March. Any tips or advice?

Love it! Congrats op post op and your weight loss.
Funny the things we notice with weight loss. My shoe size went down. I had to get my wedding rings resized.

I'm a month and a half post op and have lost 45 lbs so far (since starting pre op diet). I've noticed a few unexpected things... All my clothes are longer, my eye glasses are loose now and my necklaces hang lower 😂 Has anyone else noticed this or any other unexpected results?

Love the purple outfit. Great loss and inspiration.

Wow, Just wow.

My heaviest in 2007 (260lbs) to yesterday in my oversized onesie (131lbs). I have a mild cold so I’m just “messy hair” lounging for a couple days. Retired life!
