Ohhh I so needed to read all these funny and inspiring comments! Love this thread! =) I am in 24's right now BUT they are getting loose since being on my pre-op diet! Woo hoo! I am tired of wearin sweats and t shirts and hiding from all the pics. I too am always taking pics of my hubs with the kids bc I am too embarrassed to be in the pics. Cannot wait to be down into some smaller sizes so I can shop comfortably. I actually think I forgot how to shop for myself,its crazy! The only clothes I buy are baby and husband clothing! Can't wait to buy a bra from Victoria's Secret,ha! =))

I can really relate to what you're saying. I hated shopping before surgery because I felt so huge and so fat that nothing fit right. I even cried in a dressing room a few times. I was a tight size 22W and refused to buy 24s.

Now... fast forward 5.5 months later and guess what??? Not only do I LOVE shopping and trying on clothes but I've become a clothes SNOB!! I used to buy whatever fit and looked decent. Now I only want Ralph Lauren (which I wear most of the time), Michael Kors, or Calvin Klein. I have to wear an XL top or sweater in RL and a size 18 skirt, where other brands I can wear a Large and size 16 bottom, but I don't even care. I love my name brand designer clothes. I never thought I would turn into a high-maintenance woman but I think I have. Life is funny :)

And yes, you will love shopping too!!!!

I will be happy to NOT be camera shy! SMH My mother hates that I don't want to take photos when the family is together.

I am looking forward to the cute clothing, but I must say I do have some cute pieces now! I will just have more of them Coming Soon!

...is to be able to weigh myself on the house scale. I haven't been able to weigh myself at home or at the drs office in years. I now once i make it to 350 I have met a major goal of mine. I've always been a chunky girl and dressed my weight well I never focused on my weight!

I can't wait to fit into a size 7 Levi 501 and 550 jeans. I was a size 7/8 prior to my 3rd child 9 years ago and I would love to wear them again. I will settle for a size 9/10 also. Oh how I loved Levi jeans. I wouldn't dare put on a pare right now. Great post.

      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! 😞
