Out of the Plus sizes.... Yahooooo!!!! I went to buy an outfit for Saturday's party and went in to my usual store Debs plus sizes . I picked up a size smaller which is size 16 too big I went and got size 14 still to big. I ask the sales person if there was something smaller in the plus sizes and she said " the other side of the store" regular sizes. I decieded to try a 13 thinking " they're not gonna fit" I'm going to have to buy the big jeans. GUESS what? ........

THey fit.!!! I am so happy I haven't been in the regular sizes in years. Im still amazed and soooo happyyyyy!!! I am so happy with this accomplishment...

Yay for you!!!!!!!!

It is weird to walk into a regular store and buy clothes, but it feels fantastic. I still pick up my jeans and think that they look way too small, but then I slip them on and zip them up - its a miracle!!!

Congratuations!!!!!!

I can't wait for the day that I can find a store that has regular sizes in it, and I fit into them. I hate the "big ladies store" I think for some reasons, that designers think we need horizontal stripes and big flower patterns. Ugh, I think that we're big enough without that help. I'm really looking forward to Regular Sizes! Haven't been there in nearly 17 1/2 years. It should be fun. Congrats to you!B)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
