It’s a nice weight fabric, seems to be well made. I’m wearing a 12 for reference.

I think you need to find reasons to wear it now, it’ll be to big soon. Now I have another dress in my cart.

My outfits from this weekend




You've seen this sweater before, one of my faves. Jeans are too loose, but not super obvious




IMG_9792.thumb.jpg.8224687a0bf3fdf42210bd5926724f91.jpg




And his one my bf convinced me to unbutton one button more than I would have been comfortable with 😂

And I can't tell you the last time I wore a belt with jeans! 😳


I love both pairs of boots, and the jeans with the belt looks amazing!!!

Here's the back detailing of the new blouse I spoke about earlier. Belt artisans from Etsy that I really liked were Dragos @ SoS Collections and Vladislava @ PLIKbrand. There is a wide variety to select from depending upon your tastes. OOTD is new black jeans and top for mother Smith's 85th birthday celebration today! She still enjoys wearing pretty lipstick and getting manicures. B-day posies to cheer up her apartment. She was a Naval nurse (24) stationed in San Diego when pregnant with her first son, my hubs. She hid it for as long as she could because back in those days (1959) when the head nurse learned one was with child... You were automatically discharged from duty as an officer! Incredulous! ;[ Really. I love all her fascinating stories including that one.

I made a quick change to go out to dinner. Please excuse the clothes strewn everywhere, my MIL delivered a bag of her old work clothes to me.

I was inspired by your thrift shopping and found a leather blazer of my own at one. Will post a pic! I love your boots & belt combo in this.

Jake I love the socks. Also looking great.

November11, ohlala. I love the color of the boots and the jacket. Looking fabulous on a chilly day. Isn’t it great losing shoe sizes as well?

So unrelated to me it’s decades day at my daughters school. She chose the 90’s. I told her what I used to wear, and this is what she came up with. Me I’m just in my normal. The 3rd cardigan I ordered from Amazon. I need more colors now. 😉 Oh darn I should order all the cardigans and dresses in my cart, since I’m almost out of my bariatric Multivitamins I “need” to order those. I’ll just tell my husband oops I didn’t realize all the clothes were in my cart to.

Ps do you see the photo bombs in both pictures.

Have a great day to all you awesome, amazing, supportive, inspiring BP friends.

Seriously, keeping up with this thread is like part-time job! (love it).

@Sophie7713 : HBD mother Smith! I was in love with the "art deco" cuffed shirt, but I think I'm gonna have to break up with it because that asymmetrical side tie one is THE ONE for me. 😍 *shoves @BayougirlMrsS to the side*

@GreenTealael : can you model the socks WITH the dress???

@KaysMommy : even in "normal work clothes" you still look FAB. P.S. Daughter is a cutie 😍

@kristieshannon : Pretty dress, looks great on you! Your waist looks flat and trim!! Hope you got to convince hubby to take you out. Or you could wear it out with some pals! Or you could wear it around the house and just feel gorgeous all day long :)

@JakeH : Sock game!!! P.S. You will NOT be single for very long looking like that.. :337_fire:

@november11 : Um, that POV shot is...interesting. LOLOLOLzzz. Though it does give an excellent view of those boots that I am making a plan on stealing from you at this very moment..

      Hey everyone!
      I’m new here! Looking for some friends! 🥰

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

      3. Doughgurl

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
