I did an early morning sweep of all my pants today. I took all my size 20 pants and rotated them out of my closet and into a bin to go to the shelter I volunteer at and/or the consignment shop.

I have lost 30.8 pounds and have gone from a snug 20W to a very loose 18W.

Fortunately, I work from home and when I am out, I am business casual. My daily outfit consists of either khaki or black trousers or trouser capris and I have them down to a size 16R so I don't need to buy anything yet. I did not do the tops because I have tremendous ta-tas and I can still wear most of the tops, even if they look a little balloonish.

Have you started yet, Laura? Don't make me show you up.

Well your the skinniest b***h here!!

Wait so is Ms skinniness !!

B**ch yes, skinny no! Ms Skinniness is just a bragger! I haven't seen what she is made of yet!

I had my sleeve on May 6th. I donated ALL of my winter clothes and coats the weekend before my surgery! It was so enlightening!!!

LOL! well that really makes me look bad! I'm 6 months out!

Now I have to do it today. Either that or put me on the next episode of "hoarders"

Laura should be everyone's role model! I have been down for quite a while and the only thing that has kept me going is reading Laura's posts. She has been my breath of fresh air when I have been drowning and the light at the end of my tunnel. I admire you so much Laura, keep doing what you do, for you truly are an inspiration!

(My comment was in jest.)

Here is my daughter with Ruby.

Congratulations!

Me too! I want to be on Hoarders! Oh no sorry, we don't do that in Australia. It seems to be a genetic thing that only Americans have. Let me just climb over this pile of newspapers into my closet of clothes that still have the tags on cos they don't fit me, and through the kitchen (where is that oven again?) and out the back door, no, front door, the back door doesn't open cos I have a rabbit hutch there ( no rabbit) S**t. What is this thread about?

We can do an episode on my daughters room alone! OMG 17 year old girls can be gross!

She literally saves garbage! I try to throw a wrapper away and she screams "I'm saving that"

O_o

Ok, but have you been into a 17 year old boys room? What they save is way beyond gross!

I feel pretty good! I saved my most gigantic pants just to have, to laugh at! and scare the **** out of me!

I feel so big still but yet I tried on a pair of Ann Taylor slacks I had and not only were they way way big but they were super long...

Did I fill them out so much before that there were the right length?? Weird.
