I did the BIG closet purge today . . . cleaned out ALL the 3x stuff (HURRAY!!) and organized everything else by size. I was previously wearing a size 24 jean and I got into my old size 20s . . . and they were LOOSE!! I also put on a dress I wore when I first met my husband (I think I was around 200-210 then) and it fit . . . snugly, but it fit. :) I'm SO excited!

I'm thinking the IRS will be breathing down my neck when they see the deductions I am taking for clothing donations. :)

Congratulations!!! I know the feeling. I have had to mourn a little over some of my favorite clothes but I happily welcome my new clothes in smaller sizes. My "new" clothes have been in my second closet just waiting for me. Many have never been worn and still have the tags on them. I do a major clean every month on the first of the month which is the anniversary of my surgery. It is absolutely amazing what a difference just a month makes. Even last month when I only lost 8 lbs I lost big time in inches. The rate I am going, I imagine about Christmas time I am going to be needing gift cards for clothes for Christmas gifts. HA HA

Congrats!! It feels good to try on a dress you haven't even dared to take out of the closet in awhile. The purging will only continue for your closet. :-)

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

      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! 😞
