Thank you for being brave and posting your beautiful pictures. They have given me so much hope. I am one week post op from sleeve and beginning to look like a Mrs. potatoes head. My face is slimming down. I notice my wrist and feet look slimmer. And then I see the blob of my stomach. I look strange. :) I am excited about this journey but this thread has helped me keep my eye on the prize as I have my endless supply of Protein Shakes and faith that my body is doing the work. Thank you.

Okay, so I decided to rummage through some clothes upstairs. pardon the mess, but I’ve got a whole room full of clothes that are in stages: too large, but it’s not the right season to try to sell to consignment store, clothes that the store wouldn’t take and are being processed out for giving to friends, family or goodwill store, clothes that I’ve had for ages in storage that are about to fit me.
Then I came across this pair of jeans I ordered off of eBay last month and when I got them they were a half size too tight.
Well I tried them on again and they (mostly) fit.
They’re really tight across the hips (one of my problem areas) but by this time next month they should be fairly comfy.

I wouldn’t say that they’re an outfit that makes me feel good today, but maybe by September 1st, I’ll be able to sit down in them and also be able to breathe. 🤣🤣🤣

Who told you those are too tight ?? Who told you THOSE hips were a problem???

NOPE they fit like a glove

Alright i think everyone needs to practice these affirmations:

I am gorgeous right now

I have a perfect figure right now

I will buy clothes in my true size right noe

I will drink Matcha or coffee right now so Greentealael can live vicariously through me

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Lol. Okay okay.
Honestly I’ve always worn baggy clothes to “hide” fatness (yeah, not possible, but that was my logic).

Then WLS and things really got loose.
It feels really really weird to wear clothes that aren’t bagging off of my body and I guess I’m going to have to get used to it when things fit “more snugly” than I’m used to.

I’m going to have to get over the feeling of “if my waistband digs into my waist when I sit down” and associate that feeling with wearing clothes In my actual size rather than associate that feeling with “omg, I gained 5 pounds this month!”

The former will be a good feeling, the latter is something I’ve felt shamed by most of my adult life.

I think for that reason it’s been tough for me to buy things that fit me, fit me.
Ya know?

I got a new dress, it is crazy comfortable. Ignore my tank top under it, I was just trying it on! ...upon further notice I can see my tank is all bunched up underneath lol.

Being feminine is not my strong suit.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
