I have a wedding to go to tonight and nothing fits. I can't wait for the day to be able to chose an outfit instead of settling on one because it fits.

I'm willing to bet that every single one of us has been in that same situation. I've gone to the store many times the day of a big event because I had nothing to wear. I,too, cannot wait until the day I can open my closet and have a variety of things that not only fit, but look fabulous!

I'm a few months away from surgery and was able to get rid of clothes I will never wear again..it was amazing.. I can't wait to wear things that don't look like curtains or table cloths.

I was a bit of a clothes horse. One of the reason why I currently have a closet ranging from size 30 - 16. I have a pretty active social life. Every year I bought at least one dressy outfit and just wait for the occasion. The down side is I now have pieces I can't bear to part with. I have a full length beaded gown that I just can't bear to part with. It's too big, but the thing is a work of art and I would actually loose money at a consignment shop so it's just sitting n my closet. I've decided that I will allow myself 5 sentimental pieces and everything else has to be sold or donated.

Is it at all possible to have some things altered? A good seamstress may be the solution for the things you really would like to keep

Some things can be altered. Elastic waist skirts I can hang onto a little longer. A lot of things would cost more to take in. It's okay though, once I reconciled with that I was happy to see the things go. It's part of saying goodbye to the old me.

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

      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! 😞
