That moment when....



Recommended Posts

You fit in a size 18! I havent been in 18s since 1998! Finally out of the 20s! I was probably about a size 28, or even 30! For once I went to the clothing closet at my weight management center, and everything I got fits except for 1 dress! Usually i am able to wear 1 or 2 items! I did also get a vs nightshirt and a LLR Randy style shirt. I got a dress for Easter. The top doesnt fit! I dont think my boobs would ever fit! A very successful day!

I think it's awesome that your weight management center has a "clothing closet":)

Would be a blast if I could coordinate a plus size patient to patient sale at my group....kinda like the mom to mom sales they used to do when my kiddo was little.

I am so very thankful for it! I took 5 bags to donate and came home with a white trash bag full! There is supposed to be a limit of 5 outfits. But they never limit for me. Maybe because I can usually only get there once a month. Or also the amount I donate (18 pair of jeans were in there)

That is amazing! Congrats. I'm also in the same boat. I just ordered my first pair of size 18 pants. I'm hoping they fit. Crossing my fingers!

It is awesome that your weight management center has clothes. I am struggling with what to do with my clothes. Clothes are so expensive, so I'd like to try and sell them for something. I'll be buying clothes consistently for the next year or more. But at the same time I wish I knew someone who really needed them and would appreciate them. I'm torn!

My big thing was and is LuLaRoe leggings! (Do not get the ones from China, the fit differently) i have 4 pair and I have worn them from size 26-18 now! The are getting a little loose in spots, but they were a life saver!

Apropos of nothing exactly, but does anyone know if LuLu,Roman of HeeHaw is still living? Your mention of LuLaRo triggered something in my brain. When you get to my age you've encountered so much it happens.There was an old-timey song that went" these foolish things remind me of you!"

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
