I LOVED my senior prom dress from 2005. But it got ruined in a move. :( I so wish I could do this challenge with you. But I'm currently challenging myself to fit in and buy the wedding dress of my dreams

That's why I haven't fully committed to one. The dress I know for sure that I WANT, I can't find though. :'(

Funny this comes subject comes up. Have been pondering for several years on what to do with my wedding gown. Have two grown boys. A few months ago I decided to get into it once more then donate it. It's from 1979 I will be 12 weeks out tomorrow. Guessing about 15-20 pounds more before it should fit.

It's not doing any good sitting for 33 years and it's probably rotting away.

This just reminded me to try on my wedding dress from 1996. It fit! A little bit snug, but looks good. Brought back lots of memories. We were planning a destination wedding when my husband contracted bacterial meningitis. He was in a coma and on life support. When he finally got out of the hospital we decided to ditch the destination and got married on Anna Maria Island, FL on the beach with just us and the notary. My dress was a white, beachy sundress that I bought at Ross for $15. I can't believe it actually fits!

      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!!

      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! 😞
