It's embarrassing walking into a cute trendy store to ask if they carry plus size clothing and they reply "No". I can't wait until I loose this weight!!

Never had an issue finding trendy clothes. My biggest issue is having to buy things online instead of in stores.

That's true.. I shopped at Lane Bryant for my clothes. I would occasionally shop at side stores such as rainbow and city trends, but most of the things from the side stores would just tear up within the first few times of me wearing them. As a plus size woman clothes are expensive. You get what you pay for. I'm spending $60+ for a pair of jeans.

I am a clothes horse as it is. I am dreading having more option for clothes because I know I will get out of control.

I think a lot of us will find new issues with clothes, like no matter what your size is, they are always out of that size.

Women who are plus sized think they are the only ones who have issues finding clothes but all women have issues.

When I am smaller I want to wear mostly designer clothing, right now I spend most of my money on bags and shoes, but when I can walk into Nordstrom and Neimans and get whatever I want, it is going to be a problem.

I've always been a fashion gal. I shop everywhere; Macy's, Nordstroms, Lord & Taylor's Target, Lane Bryant, Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Avenue, Ashley Stewart, H & M, Forever 21, Hot topic, Torrid, cheapie stores like Dot and Rainbow. I can also get things from the local India and African boutiques.

Online the possibilities are endless; ASOS, SimplyBe, Wet Seal, Torrid, Macy's, Nordstroms, Lord & Taylor's Target, Lane Bryant, Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Avenue, Ashley Stewart, H & M, Forever 21, Hot Topic, Old Navy, FullBeauty, Jessica London, Woman Within, Marisota, Eloquii, Hanes, QVC, J. Jill, Ulla Popken, Anna Sholtz, etc.... I could go on and on.

I have never let myself be limited.

Not a huge Lane Bryant fan. I suspect I may have an easier time shopping in brick and mortar stores, but since I am a bargain shopper, I will likely always shop online as well.

I too eagerly want to depart the plus size section. Living in a rural area the only places to get plus size clothes in an hour radius is Walmart, Shopko, and Mauries, and somewhat at Christopher Banks. Mauries is generally where I shop, but they're often out of what ever size I need.

Focusing first on departing the sizes in the 20s, then the countdown can really begin. Heck, I'll be excited to shop Old Navy in store again.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
