Staqrting new job with baggy clothes

I am moving back to CA in a few weeks and starting a new job. I have only lost 33lbs, but all of my clothes are looking pretty baggy. I hate to buy new clothes now, but will in the spring. There are no good wills here, or there (20 miles away) but I will probably make the drive to see if I can find anything to wear. I did buy 6 pair of pants in 2 different sizes down so I hope to be able to wear those to hold me over. Great deal, 6pair of pants for $82 on sale.

I am concerned though, because I am moving in with my 27yr old single son until my house closes. This may be a few months. Besides worrying about how we get along I am concerned about cooking that will please both of us. I know there are alot of married bandsters, but this is something I havent had to worry about as I am single. I am flying out rather than driving, so that should save a few days of poor food choices.

I leave on 2/7 and wont have computer access for a few months as my son is 'internet free", and I had to sign a 7pg document outlining the use of the internet while on company premises. Hopefully when I come back I will have made some good progress. I am also keeping my scale in storage so I dont have to stress about it until I get settled.

Just a thought, if you have a smart phone ie. iphone, Droid etc something that you can access internet on you can still access this forum. Also, if there is a library near by you can use their computers.

Good luck!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
