Measurements of Me



Recommended Posts

Before surgery, I plan to have myself measured from my neck down to my ankles and measure once a month just to see how I'm losing in inches. Its easier to buy clothes based on inches and I dont want to waste money guessing on what size I should be wearing as I lose weight

I have one question though: When I measure the breast area - is it with a bra or without a bra?

You measure with a bra, I belive.

My suggestion on the clothes issue is wait as long as you can to buy new clothes. Invest in new belts as they come in handy!

I'm only planning on getting maybe one pair of pants to match my size as I keep losing. I will keep wearing the tops. I just dont want to go to work with baggy pants on.

I'm not that much concerned about clothing. I havent bought clothes for myself in years. Everything I have is outdated.

I just wasnt sure how to measure my breast area - with bra or without bra.

Measure always with bra on because boobs are too floppy without you won't get an accurate measurement ????

I haven't bought clothes in years until I lost weight. It was hard cuz I was in the thrift store every week buying a new size.

I just put on a pair of jeans that were too tight before surgery. Now they're 6 inches too big!! Woot woot!! I have been living in dresses so I haven't really been seeing the inches that have been coming off.

Alright! I bought a pair of size 10 "motivation" pants to hang in my closet. When I don't want to work out, there they'll be!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
