I brought down my summer cloths to swap out my winter cloths here in Michigan.

I found some Capri's that I wore last summer that were to big. Now yes they tie, so I could have

looked like I was wearing a potato sack this summer , but,,,,, I don't think so.

So I dug a little deeper in my box, and found summer cloths from when I lost weight the first time.

I'm glad I kept all of them. I went from a size 32 to a 22/24. Now some people are starting at where I ended up.

But what a difference in looks, and nice colors instead of Black, Grey, and Navy.

I found Yellows, Mint, Khaki, and well you get the idea. They look nice.

Just thought I would share the good news instead of vent.

Congratulations on the bright colored clothes! I'm looking forward to being excited daily about what I get to wear instead of dreading to get dressed.

My surgeon, Dr. Machado with Sacramento Bariatric Associates, hosts a monthly support group. One of the things they have is a clothing exchange. The clothes that are too big for you now might fit someone else during their journey. I wonder if there is something like that online? That sure would be great! They also have a Protein exchange. Since everybody has different tastes, what doesn't work for you might work for someone else.

Anyway, enjoy Spring in all of your pretty Spring colors! You have earned it!:welldone:

Thank You very much gMommy. I'm looking forward to a change. So yes I imagine it to be nice, but I still don't believe it.

It's hard for me to ever see the real weight loss, it looks like a dream to me. I know it's real, I can tell by the sizes, but I just don't feel it.

Maybe when I wear it this summer it will click.:rolleyes: But for now in Michigan we are under white out conditions, with 4 - 8" of snow.....

So I guess I'm not thinking much about it.

I don't know of a site were cloths can be swapped for other sizes. But it is a very good idea.

Shirley.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
