Whats "in style"?



Recommended Posts

there is a company that came out with a label that goes over the labels that is soft and silky so you can save the "designer labels" or the care instructions. They have to come off before you wash but you just put another one on when you want to wear the top. Handy idea. I thi

nk the company is Hollywood fashion tape.

That's not a bad idea. Too much maintenance for me, I'd lose them before I had the chance to use them. I have so far as to use regular scotch tape to to hold the labels down. Once, in a pinch. :lost1.5lbs:

I HATE looking at muffin tops! All I can say is that fat teenage girls have a lot more confidence than any fat teenage girls that were around when I was a teen. When I was a teen, any fatness was draped with fabric. Twice.

Absolutely! If you aren't Paris Hilton's size, please don't try and wear her clothes.

Muffin tops are gross. Muffin tops with misplaced thongs are even worse. But the jeans belted around the thighs with the boxers hanging out give them a good run for their money.

YES! Leave your Buns in the oven....and your muffins, too.

there is an awsome website for those of you at goal or who can fit sizes less than a 22 i think. I can't wait to shope from this store. I love about 90% of what they have. It's so classy. totally me. a few pieces are a little too old lady for me, but most are perfect.

I wear and 18/20 and would not be comfortable in most of those clothes, as much as i love them. They go up to a u.k. size 22, not sure if it's the same as u.s. sizes or not. but I don't think I would buy anything until i'm a 12 at the biggest.

Well I went thru my closet and pulled out everything that was more than 3 years old, that I bought on sale, that had some issues with, or never wore. That left me with 3 bags full of stuff, and 6 outfits left.

Then I hit the clearance on lanebryant.com for pants. I am going to make vests, wear white shirts, and different solid color pants. That is me... I don't care if that is in style or not.

Good for you, Poodles. To thine own self be true.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
