I wanted to buy a new pair of jeans for my birthday- maybe a nice, stylish pair. Hard to find jeans that fit. Most major retailers think I don't exist. Grateful for good old plain Walmart. Their jeans are as basic as they get, but they fit- I hate buying cloths because there are always very limited selections. My friends think

I have no sense for fashion- I do but I am very limited.

Well, yesterday was my last fat birthday 55-by my 56 birthday, I will be able to shop at Macy's, Kohl's-wherever I want, God willing. My surgery looks to be Jan 6. Maybe next year I will buy a pair of skinny jeans????. Prayers and peace to all.

Well I wish you all the luck with your surgery and your next birthday. I am anxiously waiting to see the surgeon and get my surgery date so I can start my journey, too..

I'm with you, gwunderle! My 59th birthday is near the end of December and I'm hoping to have surgery that month also. I've already told my husband that I'm planning on being close to goal if not at goal by the time I turn 60!

I wish you all the luck in the world to obtain your wish for your next birthday.

I made it to goal for my birthday this year and am very happy because I can shop almost any where I want.

To be honest I kinda went overboard on buying clothes for myself but hey I figure I have no intentions of changing my size so I look at it as an investment. LOL

Once again the very best to you with your upcoming surgery and here's to a healthier and happier you..

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
