Too tight? too short?



Recommended Posts

A little worried that my t-shirt is either too tight or too short for my current weight. Honest thoughts please?

Thank god for this forum! I have nothing but men and boy at home to ask these types of questions and we all know how much they hate when we ask them questions like this!

Perfect!

You know what is intersting is I am digging out clothes that I wore late winter. Some of them I felt very self conscious about back in Feb when I hit goal - like they were too revealing or something. Now I put them on and wonder what I was thinking - I look great! HAHA Part of the dismorphia i had was always feeling like i needed to cover up, or i am too old to wear something or whatever. What came along with that is when I wore something form fitting, or a little shorter I felt a little foolish or something like "who is that old fat lady kidding" sort of thing.

I think posting here for wardrobe feedback is a great idea. So many of my girlfriends are overweight, married and just plain stodgy. They wear black brown and gray unisex kind of clothes (fleece and jeans, the Seattle uniform) and so I don't really trust their judgement either...LOL I want to look stylish, but not outlandish or ridiculous if you know what I mean.

I know EXACTLY what you mean. Last thing I want to be is that 40-something woman trying to look too young. But I don't want the "Mom" look either. Can't wait until I hit my goal weight to re-define my style. As it is, I wear black pants to work every day. I'll vary the top, the jacket, etc., but it's black pants daily. Partly because of travel, partly because I don't have to think or worry about what to wear, partly because I'm not comfortable covering my rather ample bottom in bright colors :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
