What is your challenge piece of clothing?



Recommended Posts

Bought a pair of Liz Claiborne black pokadot pants in a size 14 about 3 weeks ago, try them on once a week. First week got them to my knees, last week to my thighs. Just tried them on and they go to the bottom of my butt!!! ( hopefully I'm not stretching them with all the trying on!). ;-)

Have a wiggle dress that I bought about 7 years ago when I had lost weight. I was maybe one size away from getting into it. Now I'm 5 or 6 sizes away. Sleeved now, and I WILL get into that dress!

I have a dress from Old Navy that a girlfriend bought on clearance and left my house (she lives across country so it's not worth shipping). It's a large which would put me at a 12/14.

You WILL get there!! Just don't forget to keep trying it on!! I had something like this with lapband and I could have worn it much earlier, just didn't think to try it on. ;-)

I have many pieces, but one in particular is my size 8 Michael Korrs pants I bought. Well today I put them on & they fit, but a tad snug still.

To be honest, it is finding the right size bra! My entire wardrobe is boxed or bagged, ready to donate, but I was fitted the other day for a new bra and I was amazed at the change in size I needed! I had to order them, so I cannot wait to have a bra that actually fits well.

Two girdles? I didn't know you could do that!!! Though whenever I try to hold the tummy in with something I just end up with a muffin top!

Speaking of bras I think I'm going to wander into Victoria secret this afternoon. The girls are shrinking.....

I bought three cute summer dresses (dresses!) that are sleeveless, cool, and can be taken in as I shrink! Did I mention I'm in Florida! I've not worn sleeveless in my whole adult life and I guess I will before my arms get too saggy and I want to cover them up again!

      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.

        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?
