The Good News & The Bad News



Recommended Posts

The good news: I'm down 2 sizes in my shirts and pants and 1 band size and 1 cup size in my bra and I'm only 5 1/2 weeks postop.

The bad news: all that money I've saved on food, went to clothes today I'll probably wear for a "minute".

Totally, 100% loving my sleeve. It is my favorite body part. :-)

Whoohoo for you! :D For my birthday I received a Dillards gift card...today I looked thru the clothes and decided since I have lost 9 lbs since Monday and am now able to wear a size 16(slightly too big) and a size 14 (definitely to tight) that I would not buy clothes and bought a gorgeous sale price Calvin Klein heels! Now pray my feet don't shrink! lol LOVE the sleeve!!! :wub:

Congratulations on rocking that sleeve the way you have done. I have to admit even the Bad news sounds pretty damn good to me. How can buying smaller clothes ever sound bad.. lol. Keep up all your hard work.

That's awesome! Don't or get to check out your lock consignment stores and Goodwill stores. Ours in this area are nicer ones and have some nice selections. On Saturdays here at our local Goodwill ..you can find shirts for a dollar or two...not to much of a budget buster for clothes you won't wear for long!

      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! 😞
