Fat girl nightmare realized and conquered!



Recommended Posts

This morning I got up, got dressed in the cutest new outfit (size 12 AEO skinny trousers, medium white top, medium Ann Taylor sage green crop jacket), hopped in my car with my cup of coffee and a list of things to do that gave me not a moment to deviate from schedule and started my day happy as a clam. Got almost to my destination, took a swig of coffee and spilled it all the way down my shirt. WTF?!?!?! As I was cleaning myself up and cussing up a storm, I noticed more coffee on my pants. As y'all former fatties know, we can't just run into any store, grab a quick outfit and move on with our day, especially at 8 in the morning when no fat girl stores are open and I had no time to run home. (Won't even talk about the expense IF you could find something that fit.)

Into Target I went! Within 10 minutes I was back out of the door, bag of clothes in hand that freaking fit! And didn't cost a fortune! In REGULAR sizes! Are you kidding?!

Best freaking coffee spill ever!

I'm a normal person! NORMAL!!!!!!!!

Whew! Ann Taylor has become one of my favorite places. I almost cried the first time I bought a top there! I was so thrilled! One of my other favorites is Talbots. Do you have those in your neck of the woods?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
