So, this morning I needed to make a trip to the grocery store and I pulled on a pair of jeans.
I took two steps out of my bedroom and the jeans fell down and pooled around my feet. I started crying. Happy tears, not sad. Those jeans used to fit me pretty snug, and now they are so loose that they won't stay up. I never thought my clothes would be too big on me and it was a bit of a reality check for me making me realize that I'm getting healthier and I'm actually doing it.
I just want to know, did you guys start buying more clothes right away? I can't really afford to keep buying new clothes every few months, so does anyone else have other alternatives? I work from home so I don't need dressy stuff, just jeans and t-shirts. Good Will? Wal Mart?
Thanks

Oh my goodness! That's so embarrassing but it's a good sign you're losing! I'm having a problem with my undies, too. I liked to use cotton elastic ones, but now they're too loose and aren't staying in place. haha

My office doesn't open again until tomorrow, but I will definitely bring it up. Thank you!
And I was terrified of my surgery because my friend thought it would be funny to send me a video about anesthesia awareness a few days before my surgery. I was freaking out, but my surgery went fine. lol

Any rapid weight change will cause distress on your back. I pinched my sciatic nerve years ago, and it's been acting up recently. I'm about a week and a half post op and it's gotten very painful.
Since I've already lost like 25lbs, I figured that the weight loss caused it. That, and my stomach hurts, so I've been having to sit and lay in weird positions to be comfortable, which is putting pressure on my back.
I was told not to take muscle relaxers while my incisions and stomach are healing, so I've been trying to rely on Tylenol to help (spoiler alert: it doesn't). So, while I don't know if the bulges are related to it, I can tell you from personal experience that back pain is something I'm dealing with post-op.

Dannon Light and Fit Greek is life! It's less calories than Oikos, and is made with sucralose instead of stevia. It has 7g of sugars, but only 8g of carbs and have caused me zero problems. Plus has like 15 more flavors than Oikos and just generally tastes better. 8g of carbs is fine. I was stuck on Oikos for forever until I realized it was a scammmm and Dannon Greek has better nutritional stats (much less calories and carbs). Oikos has 14g of carbs!

Thank you all for the advice! I assumed that they want zero sugar with artificial sweeteners, but I double checked with my NUT and she said exactly what everyone else is saying. As long as it's not an outrageous amount of sugar, it's perfectly fine.
I'm going to try the Dannon Light and Fit.
