I don't have "one" thing. I have two. I love my jeans so much that I brought 2 exact pair! With flats, Converse, cha-cha heels, cowboy boots. Wearin' a pair now! By the way, it's a huge NSV cause before losing weight I'd have said "black stretch pants."

Here Here to a good fitting bra (with padded shoulder straps)

Also--I seem to have become a jean addict. I went to Old Navy--Like Lisa--bought two pair of the same size (16Long) and Style.

Also--I seem to have a huge number of black V-Neck T-shirts.

I would deffinatly say the right bra!! I can't stand to have bras that the elastic has left you hanging... my boobs sag enough and that makes it an absolute neccesity to have a good bras!!!

I'm just now getting to where I will even wear jeans again. I always hide in black pants until I've lost weight and now I have been buying jeans galore... LOVE THEM!!! Flair leg ones with sexy boots!!! Yippi!!

A good bra defiently. It's the one thing I don't buy cheap anymore. I used to really like layne Bryants...and still do they last a long time. But my new favorite.....Fredricks of Hollywood's Water bra...they make them up to a D cup...can you believe it. It does better perking those babies up than any other bra I've tried. And though I've lost volume, when I roll them up they are still about the same size. :faint:I used to buy underwear, bras and panties once or twice a year when layne bryant had thier big bra and pantie sale. And I did just spend 60 bucks on panties from the last one.

Yep the Water bras will have to do me till I can get these babies fixed later I guess. Gotta get the tummy happening first though.

I'd have to agree with jeans. As to bra's well yes, not that I actually own any decent ones, I'm still wearing ratty nursing bras from when I was pregnant with Eliza - they're 4 years old and I wore them right through pregnancy, through two years of breastfeeding and ever since. I am not buying new ones till I've gone down a size.

Jeans and any sort of glam shoe make me feel a million bucks. Gotta be the right jeans, lowish rise, nice bootleg flare, they suit my proportions perfectly.

And I love earrings, beady earrings. They always make me feel pretty.

Good fitting underwear has my vote. If my underwear are too tight or the elastic at the waist is worn out and they're falling down - it's so annoying.Some day I hope to put on a different brand of underwear (I've worn the same brand for years - plain, white, nylon, hi-cut thigh) and not have to pre-stretch them before I put them on - so that they are actually comfortable and NOT annoying.Patti

I'm with the jeans and good bra. The only thing I'll wear these days with an elastic waist is my workout pants or skirts. Otherwise it's jeans jeans jeans. A good bra makes me look better. If the girls are up high, that middle belly roll doesn't look quite so offensive, lol

For me - slimmers. Whenever I have to be in a suit & up in front of the masses, I'm so happy I have them. Then they come off ASAP. :)

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
