Recommended Posts

There is this little half of half ( sort of like a consignment shop) where I live.. and I buy really cheap jeans there ( preloved condition) and sell them back..works out great if you can find one of those type shops.. I've dropped and sold two sizes so far! Im saving my money for my goal size!! SHOPPING SPREE!!! LOL

I wore a lot of stretchy leggings, skirts and tunic tops belted or with a scarf to make them go a little farther. I'd hit Kohls with a 30% off coupon and pick up what I could on super sale when I could. It's a fabulous problem to have! Also second hand boutiques where you can sell several old pieces and replace with one nice piece helped with the cash helped fill in.

I always took pride in looking professional at work. So I got really annoyed when my clothes were too baggy or didn't lay properly, I ended buying 3 pairs of pants and 1 pair of jeans from Old Navy. I got sale items but they fit me properly. I was able to wear those items for about 2 months, then I bought more items from old navy, again on sale. I make a large donation to the Salvation Army every year of old/outdated clothes, electronics, etc. so I'll just throw too big clothes into the donation pile. I write the donation off on my taxes every year.

I went to Ross and bought 1 pair of slacks and 1 pair of jeans to last me until my next size change. I've been able to find most for under $10.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
