Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

Well, this is really a two-in-one NSV....

I buy alot of my clothes at the local thrift store. My DH and I went there looking for a pair of pants and he said--"hey you should go over and look at the blazers--they are free today". I made a face--like, how good can they be if they are free???, but I trotted over there anyway. Lo and behold, I found a bright red ST JOHN blazer--size 16 and it fits me like it was MADE for me! WOoooohooo!

Then, I decided I needed something decent to wear with my new fance schmanctzy blazer, I walked into our higher end ladies's shop (where before, I couldn't fit into anything they sold) and the sales lady asked me what I was looking for. I told her I needed a pair of dressy black slacks. She asked what size and I said 16. She brought me a pair and they were way too big! She brought me a 14--TOO BIG! She brought me a 12 and they fit (but are miles tooo long)! A 12!.

I haven't done anything spectacular in the arena of actual pounds lost in the last few weeks--so this just proves that if you are moving, your shape WILL change!

A 12!

Still can't believe that!

Wow, that must have felt great! I believe I hopped right into 16's when I was a child, so I've never known that feeling, but I can guess that it feels amazing!! :D

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
