WOW! What a feeling!



Recommended Posts

Well as many of you sleevers know, or maybe will know, that we continue to wear our same clothes once they become comfortable and beyond. I kept wearing my same 2 pairs of jeans because they were comfortable and loose and probably made me feel good because although hardly anyone had commented on my weightloss they made ME realize I had lost weight. So I had been thinking I am about the weight I was before I got pregnant with my son. So I dug out the jeans I wore for my birthday right before I found out I was pregnant. I remember feeling SO good that night in my skin! Well I put them on and they FIT!! A little tighter in the waist than I prefer but a few more pounds and they will be PERFECT! They I dug out some from many years ago... again FIT! WOW! I can not believe it! This has never happened to me before! I am going to get rid of my comfortable pants and look forward to going out and buying some more JEANS!

That IS a wonderful feeling!!! It's one of the best feelings ever! I have also pulled out some summer clothes that I wasnt able to fit and they look great! I can't wait til summer comes full bloom and to go shopping. I told myself I wouldnt do any shopping until my birthday which is in July. UNtil then I'm just wearing my old clothes that I can now fit.

Congrats Lynda I too had a wow moment when I broke out some jeans and tops I wore several years ago (cloths bought after a big wt. loss). I am able to fit into quite a few nice jeans, skirts, tops and jackets. I still have even smaller sizes that are classic and pricey but I'm not there quite yet. Keep up the good work.

Very exciting Lynda!!

I am down one+ size in jeans. Almost ready for the next ones but agree, they are just a bit tighter than I would prefer. I bought a couple of danskins type pants and wear them to work too. I like the stretchy material and tie waist band.

Congrats! Sure makes it worth the changes!

Lynda, that's so exciting. I can put on jeans that I've saved for a couple of years. Two pairs that were my favorites. I can put them on and zip or button them up and they're ok, but just a little too tight for sitting around comfortably. My goal is to get into them ASAP and dump these baggy ones I've been wearing! :o

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
