I can zip up my boots!!!



Recommended Posts

I can't find a good spot for this, but last year I got some boots and could only zip the up about halfway. This year, after lapand, I can not only zip them up but they are sort of big around the leg. I'm so thrilled.

Well, I've noticed that my legs are getting quite thin. I look like a balloon standing on sticks. My stomach is still huge as are my arms. I'm hoping they will get smaller someday but I haven't lost a pound in a couple of months. I think it's because my band is too tight and I can't really eat a lot of Protein and veggies. So I exist on fattening stuff. But I'm going to get an unfill on Christmas break and hope that I will start losing again. Oddly, it seems that one must eat to lose weight. Whoda thunk it?

Thats fantastic! Way to Go!

Buying some boots is one of my band-goals!

Lane Bryant had boots last year and they were pretty cool looking. They are cut for larger legs. I like English riding boots and they had those. I didn't get them because I got the other boots that I couldn't zip up. I also bought a leather jacket from Lane Bryant and it's very good. I also have a padded leather coat from there. They have some nice clothes. Take a look at their site.

That is wonderful! One of my goals is also to be able to wear boots someday. I have always had fat legs/calves and have never had a pair of boots since I was a teen.

I love the look of riding boots with long skirts. that is one of my "clothing wish" goals.

      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! 😞
