Frustrated, Disappointed, Annoyed And Need To Complain



Recommended Posts

Have an interview today. Put on my "interview outfit" and certainly 40 lbs down my slacks are gappy and too large. My shirt is also too big but is passable. So I think to myself I'll indulge and buy a new outfit. I go to Lane Bryant (where my current outfit is from) and try on one size smaller shirts and 2 size smaller pants. Shirts too tight (not really but its too tight for my liking) and can't even get the pants up. I think ok so I'm only down 1 size in pants and the same size still in shirts. I get the next size larger pants. Umm they're too tight too. I think wth? I get the same size pant that's currently in my closet and gappy. Umm they're too tight too!!! How the hell is it even possible that I lose 40 lbs and I can't even fit into the same size pants as the baggy ass crap in my closet? I could probably get 2 of my thighs in 1 leg of my scrub pants. My slack in my closet and my shorts are falling off and I don't need to unbutton them to pull them on and off and i probably need to wear a belt to keep them up. But new clothes in a store I've always shopped at I can't even fit into the size I wore before surgery? Ugh, I hate clothes!

I hate clothing shopping for that reason! Don't be discouraged - you know that you are losing pounds and inches. Soon you will be able to walk into any store and buy what you need! Good luck on the interview!!

Don't let cloting size numbers upset you, it sounds like you are caught in between sizes. This is only the first step in "many" different sizes. Wear you loose clothing for a while and then don't buy too much because your size will be changing quicker than you know it.

That's what I do. I buy a piece here and there to get by. Nothing major and ALL on clearance. Lol

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
