Do you ever shove an entire blanket down your pants?

Am I the only lunatic who shoves blankets/pillows/etc. under my clothes to show how much smaller I am than I used to be?

Exhibit A: a pair of pants that I could not fit into/could barely fit into for at least a month after surgery, now with room for an entire fluffy blanket...might be time for some new jeans...

My sister's reaction was "hahahahaha wtf" when I shared this with her, so maybe trying to shove a blanket in my pants isn't a sane reaction to "hmmm these pants feel baggy"?

Tie a string or rope around your waist, when someone asks say "Oh my, it's the ONLY WAY I can keep THESE PANTS UP! " If they prolong the conversation you have a perfect chance to brag and be obnoxious about the situation!😝🚩LOL

They have a balloon festival in Marysville Ohio and a great big Air Balloon out in Arizona, near Sonoma. Tie the legs shut, they can inflate them with heated air and your pants can be part of the festival! And meanwhile you can rock your newly slendarizing body! Win Win!👖🚀

They’re my only pair of jeans right now, I have to go out and buy some more but haven’t yet!

It’s hard to believe that they’re so baggy now because they’d been my “goal” pants for at least a few years!

Oooh, I like this idea! Arizona sounds especially nice bc Minnesota is being dumb and already 20 degrees and snowy 😡

Haha, I kind of thought that might be the case but figured if anyone would be weird like me it’d probably be someone on here!

      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!!

      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?

      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... :(
