For me it’s a tight little black dress...where my wait is smaller than the curves of my hips LOL. Oh and maybe some naughty Victoria Secret.

Anything that doesn't involve a cover-up, like a big sweater or sweat jacket to "cover up" my back fat and belly lol.. To be comfortable in just a tank top, a cute top or even just a t-shirt without covering up would be awesome. Oh, and sexy high heels! I'd love to be able to wear those again without feeling like I was going to keel over and die from the pain! I miss feeling sexy!

Love this post BTW!

Anything that doesnt come from the "womens" or "plus size" section. I want to wear clothes that fit me well. I want to buy things from the little trendy stores and not from Lane Bryant!

Life is so ironic. I got to a BMI of 21 and could wear most of what I wanted, but still had a slight muffin top that frustrated me. I'm pretty obsessive about things like that - I wont wear anything that shows VPL or a braline or any fat showing at all.

Well, thanks to chemo and radiation, I finally get down to a BMI of 19 only now I have a temporary stoma so I have a bag on my stomach and the surgeon fashioned a loop of my intestine over the stoma (but under the skin) so i have this bulge there,. So skin tight stretchy dresses - yeah, I'm at the weight and in the kind of shape that I could wear them and look fantastic - except now I have to dress loose around the middle, lol!

So lately, I'm wearing high heels and short skirts - something I rarely do because I'm already 5ft 10 - to show off my legs, which are looking pretty hot if I do say so myself.

on a more serious note, its sooooooo good to just shop in regular stores and I've found being thin even makes stores like Kmart and Target more attractive, you can find great stuff that looks good on you when you're not all bulges and rolls. Its the best reward of weight loss to my way of thinking! But all of us have figure flaws and I never found I could wear absolutely anything I wanted. I dont do maxi dresses for example - ick, I hate them and they look awful on me. All skinny bony shoulders and arms, and then this enormous swathe of fabric. I need my legs to show to balance it out.

Oh yes, this is one of the main reasons why I got the Lap-Band. I CANNOT stand the clothes at Lane Bryant. I also want to be able to wear sexy lingerie and look sexy in it too.

I have my eye on this vera wang gown for my wedding in 2012: http://brideguide.ehclients.com/images/uploads/Esther.jpg

I would love to wear it and look beautiful in it (including having some semblance of a waist line).

I love this post!

I am a clothes addict - I love all fashion - and it stinks being only in the plus sizes. 1. Because not a lot of designers have plus sizes. 2. If they do, they don't really change the design to fit a plus size person. I can't wait to shop in regular stores or in the non-plus departments. Hope I never see those sales clerks in Woman's again :).

All that said - I want to get to the stage where I look good in a pair of jeans! May sound silly - but I am going to go out and buy the most kick @ss pair of expensive jeans - when I am 145lbs or below!

In the meantime - I can't wait to wear shirts that don't have to come to my knees to hide my belly!!

I almost forgot one of my biggest wishes - I have always wanted knee high boots. I have been embarrassed multiple times in stores trying them on and then don't fit above my calve or I can't zipper them. When I lose - that will be one of my first additions to the wardrobe (after the summer :) )

I am dying to wear a bikini like you wouldn't believe. After a year of tons of Lipo and now 3 tummy tucks, that is all I want to wear. I am still healing but thats all I can think about.

Nice undies.

A pretty dress that doesnt make me look like a Christmas tree ornament.

Short sleeved tops.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
