GET out of my way!



Recommended Posts

Move over, people. I'm wearing a pair of jeans that haven't seen my ass since the 90's! And I'm sitting down and breathing all at once.

These were my favorites back then, and they're so old and worn that the cuffs are frayed and they had a hole near my coochie that I patched years back... but I'm wearing them to work today because try to stop me!

Meanwhile, I'm having a hard time while shopping because my brain keeps taking me back to the 26/28 huge tent-shirts that I lived in to cover everything. Last night I bought an 18/20 tank top that fits without looking like a sausage. Watch out, world!

Now keep in mind The Avenue, where I buy most my clothes, is a plus-size store, so their sizes are more generous than if I were to buy an 18/20 at Dillards, but I'm still smaller than I used to be.

Peace and love, babies... peace and love!

Can we use a nicer word than oozing since that's a sore spot with me? How about "overflowering" with hottiness! I'm even wearing my red bandana flip flops. Yes, I work in a lawfirm, but I'm tired of seeing the size 2 file girl wearing belly shirts with flip flops every single day without getting reprimanded. They are just lucky I don't have a belly shirt cuz I might just have to wear it to prove a point! One look at my jiggling belly hanging over my jeans would have them post a dress policy... then I'd sue them with one of their own attorneys!

Awe, I like my job.. I shouldn't talk that way. Sorry!

P.S. - to do the quote thing:

Highlight the text you want to quote. Hold down the Ctrl key and then the "C" key (that copies the text into your computer's short term memory). Click on the "Quote" button (just above the text box you're typing in and to the right). Click in the text box that clicking on the "Quote" button gave you, hold down the Ctrl key and then the "V" key (that will paste the text you copied into the quote box) and then click "Okay".

Then you will see in your message what are called "HTML tags". The command starts with a [ , has the command, and then ends with a ] .

This is the "on" switch. You will see at the end of the quoted text the "off" switch - the exact same command as the "on" switch, except with a / infront of the command.

I know you're asleep now, but I have lots more to tell you so you can get your web page started... ;)

Good Job Lisa (fitting in the old pants). Keep up the good work. No more fainting either. I don't think we even have an avenue store anywhere in our area. I'll have to look. I love the bargain shopping too. I try never to pay full retail price for anything. Take care and hope the oozing lets up, Teresa

Damn Girl can I take a look in your closet when I come to Vegas..I need me a pair of those jeans!

WOO HOO DELARLA !!! Way to go girlfriend!

Hey by the way are we going to have a clothing exchange while we are in Vegas? I have alot of clothes I no longer fit into (18-20)

Since we all range in the size and weight department I got no problem donating my old clothes that no longer fit. We may look like we are in Vegas for a week though with the extra luggage we will bring to cart all of these clothes..anyone interested let me know I will pack some of my stuff!

Oh my gosh, I can hardly stand it but they just fixed my work computer so I can play here again! Yipeeeee!

Michelle, I thought of a clothing exchange, too, but that might add too much confusion. How does everyone else feel?

Yeah, I feel great in these old shredded jeans. Would have been nice if at least one person I work with noticed that I'm wearing fitted pants instead of stretchies for a change, but nobody said anything. I'd have to wear a huge red flower in my hair to get anyone's attention here. Wait a minute... I AM wearing a huge red flower in my hair. These people need to wake up!

Thanks guys! It's almost time to do the Friday dance. It's been 3:00 p.m. for about four hours now - this day is going too slow. Time to set me free!

Yipeee, computer works!

Don, thanks for the instructions but I'm not sure if I'm smart enough to follow them.

Wore those jeans all day and all night. Went out with the girls last night & didn't get home till 1:30 a.m., and guess what woke me up at 6 a.m.? TWEET, SQUAWK, TWEET. All four of those Cockatiels wanting mom to get up. So off to the Avenue I go on minimal sleep.< /p>

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
