Make it happen! Go to a party, out to dinner or to a show (and I don't mean movie), go to a wine tasting, or see a local band perform anywhere fun! In our town locals are always performing in coffee shops and community centers. There's even a berry farm that sponsors free concerts each week on their property. :-) Buy that dress!

3 month check up yesterday. I lost another 3.8% body fat in six weeks. Go exercise and protein!

That's great!!!!!!

This was my NSV last night...I went to White House Black Market and decided to try on a size 14 to "see" how far I had to go to get in a "real" size 14...I AM THERE!!!

Looking beautiful

Yesterday I bought a 3x Miraclesuit pantygirdle (ughh! That sounds awful) Brcause someone said her doctor told her if you wear tight fitting clothes your skin will not droop so much, will shrink in the right place - also since i am down 35 pounds since i started the "journey" i have discovered at least 8 pairs of size 24 jeans in my closets. Up and down for 30 years will do that? So goodwill is gonna have a big windfall of fat clothes this year . My surgical date is sept 3, 2013. An inch at a time.

Not a doctor, but I wouldn't bet the farm on tight fitting clothing keeping your skin from sagging....however it can't hurt and I'm sure would smooth out the lumps and bumps I have from my loss!

[LilBoo007 491]

I've noticed the more I loose, the more the lumps and bumps go away as well !

Absolutely agree!!! The 30-40 Pound loss me was funky funky with stuff sticking out in the strangest places....though saggy, the last 10 pounds have definitely helped smooth things out and make a world of difference how I look in clothing!

My doctor told me to use a girdle. That it helped keep things tight. Doesn't prevent the loose skin. But helps the body preserve whatever elasticity it has left

About 6 years ago I bought 3 pairs of pants. They are all the same except color. They were way to small once I got them home and I was too embarrassed to take them back. Well good golly today they FIT!!!!!!!!! Sooo excited. It's not a huge size jump but it is a different size!
