I like the preppy style for men. It's classy and timeless.

I want to fit into all of my old concert tee shirts! I would never wear them in public, but just to be able to wear them as lounge around shirts would be fun. I feel like my personal style will stay the same. My favorite place to shop is Old Navy and they carry the same stuff for regular and plus sizes. The regular sizes are just cheaper... wayyyy cheaper. I'm looking forward to shopping at the Gap. I love the timeless look of jeans and a tee. And being able to shop at places like Loft, J Crew, and the occasional forever 21 spree lol. 90% of the time though, I wear Chef's whites. They make these cute feminine cut pants and chef jackets and I'm looking forward to wearing those instead of the shapeless unisex ones.

Aside from personal style, the person I want to be is free and fun loving. When I hit my goal I want to treat myself by going to a music festival like Coachella. I know I could goto one at any size, but I would enjoy it more without all the extra weight holding me back. When you are surrounded my music, you gotta do a lot of dancing :)

I'll probably still wear all black, not because it's slimming, but because it looks bad ass. ????

The style I know I'm going to go for will be like this:

I'm a city girl and want that effortless chic look, sleek hair and a classic red lip. Ok the hair and classic red lip I have it's just the neck down that needs some tweaking! Hahahah

The only downside? The cost of shopping :P

Also, I used to have trouble finding my size on a rack. I'm finding that's still the case. What's the deal with the lack of smalls on a rack??

this ^^^^

I have just as much of a problem finding clothes in a small (or XS) as I did in a 3X. Doesn't seem fair! :wacko:

I'm discovering that I'm apparently a total basic white girl. Since getting near goal, I love to wear long sweaters with scarves, skinny jeans, and boots. Just stick a Starbucks cup in my hand and call me Becky! :rolleyes:

I'm 50 years old and wear pretty, feminine age appropriate clothes. I tend to like to be more conservative and wear longer sleeves and longer skirts. I want to get some cute cowgirl boots to wear with jean skirts. I like other boots too and want to wear really feminine dresses/skirts but that aren't too tight. I've been looking on Pinterest to find cute styles and outfits.

I want to wear a sheath dress, pencil skirt and a button down shirt (not together of course). And never have to shop at a plus sized store again. I am close but still need to wear a 14W in pants.

      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... :(
