3 years later when you are cleaning out your closet again and you find that one pair of pants you kept to always remind you of your accomplishments! So you step into them and pull them up and let them fall off!! LOL - just because you can! :) keep it up everyone - staying the course works!!

When clothes shopping doesn't suck!

When you can actually buy clothes off the rack, and they fit without alterations.

When you tuck in your tee shirts because it looks sleeker.

Heck, when you even have the guts to wear shirts that aren't oversized tents.

I'm tellin' ya, this procedure makes a whole world of difference!!!

You get a backache from a long drive - because your fat no longer fills in that lumbar support need! I have to get one of those pillows now I guess.

You try on multiple outfits in the morning to find something presentable, but this time ruling out all the TOO LOOSE outfits instead of the too tight ones! (Yay!)

LOL - you can't make the recliner sit back upright just by leaning forward any more! I have to reach up with both arms and pull now. Too funny last night as hubby saw me trying to get up.

YESSS!!! This happened to me this morning. I buttoned up a size 16 1/2 shirt and it was too big. (I used to wear an 18.5.) So I moved it to the back of the closet and put on a 15.5. This is freakin' awesome!!!

While out on my walk during break time i caught sight of my reflection next to my friend (who is probably about 120ish) and i didn't want to crawl in a hole and die. In fact i felt quite proud.

Also... i now weigh LESS than my husband!!! First time in my life I weigh less than the guy I'm with. :D

Still very very far to go, and am a chronic slow loser, but I'm enjoying every little NSV!!

I took my son to Buckle to get a watch & the sales guy thought I was there to shop for clothes. He said so you need M tops & 27 or 28 pants right? Btw... A 27 or 28 at Buckle is nothing like a 22 at Lane Bryant! I was so happy to just be seen as me by someone who didn't know me before!! & the guy was completely correct! He is really good at his job!????

When you don't worry about someone else parking too close to you in the parking lot for you to get into your car.

      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...

      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
