furry life

I have a lot of purple going on today. I am in an in-service today - we are focusing on social justice so things are gonna get emotional. Hence the comfy stretchy clothes.

Big meeting today. Bringing my A game 😃

Meeting some old time friends 👭

Out and about.

I’m currently in Brazil so everything I got is pretty casual.

😂 Yep!
Unexpected side effect of my weight loss, I feel like I can wear inexpensive outfits and look completely put together. When I was heavy I always felt sloppy, and only partially counteracted that by wearing clothes that were well made and expensive. Now I feel equally fab in an outfit that costs $25 or $250.

Date night (and it’s about 100 degrees today)

Comfortable in the heat.

POD-doctor's outfit.
So seriously--damn you body dysmorphia. At 133lbs I "feel" thin in my body. You know? Or at least normal. I can now look in the mirror and think I just simply look normal. Right? But when I look at these pics in outfits I used to feel thin in, I think I look heavier than when the jeans were on the tight side. They are now on the loose side of life and I need to go down to an 8 in them. And my waist looks so "thick" (and clearly so do my fluffy thighs). *sigh* Anyone else have this issue even in their super hot outfits?

Visiting a client site today. Funny how I used to find no joy in having to choose something to wear for work, and now I almost (almost) wish I could go to office everyday so I can wear (and buy!) cute clothes.
Wearing my most favourite pair of "work" shoes...can wear these all day long AND they make me 3 inches taller (I have them in black too )
EDIT: OMG. I just noticed my shirt is a little too see-through in this picture...

Off I go to Wrigley! Hydration will be number 1 concern today.

Practically everything I own is polka dot or striped. I love all these outfits. This is my super cheap comfortable t-shirt dress I live in. Nothing fancy, throw and go.

Here's today's outfit.

Ok, here was yesterday's dress. I gotta say though, I feel great and thin in it, but it looks too big for me in the pics! And now I feel like I look frumpy in it a



After seeing all y'all bangin' bods and adorable dresses!

This is what I put on to go to the grocery store earlier today. It's actually a swimsuit coverup...but its the only tank-like summer dress I own that fits me at the moment (...and the "arm up" pose is to camouflage my batwing 😉... I should walk around with my arms up all day 😂 )

Polka Dots today! Have a working session in a very casual office today

Cute outfits! I’ll play too.

I’ll start!

I’m channeling my inner Elle Woods today 😂

I had a gastric bypass in April. I'm down over 70lbs since surgery and I feel great. Tonight I went public about the surgery so I felt like I was coming out. I feel good about the progress. The comparison is crazy to see. Because you don't see it day to day.

I am so glad you made this post! I was wondering about my own caloric intake and if it was enough. I'm averaging just over 500/day. I know most surgeons tell you to eat every four hours but frankly I'm not hungry enough to do that! To me, eating when I'm not hungry is what got me into trouble in the first place!😀
