I know right? I so wanted the pearls. *sniff



Funny, these are Old Navy size 6 jeggings and I think they are too big. But I don't know if a 4 would go up over my sharpei hips/bottom. Seriously it's like an anaconda is swallowing me to get them up over my bum. Then they are too big in the legs and waist. LOL!


Okay so I’ve FINALLY got some time off and I just HAD TO respond to this:

1. I’ve accidentally lost another 6 pounds (finally weighed yesterday for the first time since 12-14 and I’m down to 140.6-eek)
2. These last 10-15 pounds gone off of my body have REALLY exaggerated the loose skin and are making it much more difficult to find clothes with a good fit. I can now totally relate to the big legs, tight-across-the-hip fit.
Making my argument for plastics all the more real

I know you have thigh gap, but do they squeak when you walk? ;) LOL! Do they make your legs sweaty? :D Inquiring minds and all!!!

Nope, no squeaking....that would be funny if they did, lol.

I haven't worn them long enough to know if I'll sweat in them, and I have yet to even wear them out of the house! But they are (lightly) fleece lined, so they are supposed to be warm-ish, I suppose 😎

....also @BayougirlMrsS...that dress is def too big. It is NOT doing your figure justice.

Okay. I’ve finally caught up on this thread.
Wow..... just....wow

EVERYONE looks absolutely amazing and I’m so afraid I’d forget many of y’all so I’ll just say DANG YALL ARE AMAZING!

This last weekend I finally did a consignment store shop for a new wardrobe- well half a wardrobe as it was about 80% work clothes, but I did get 2 pair skinny jeans, 4 Pairs work slacks, 11 tops and a very interesting long sweater.
For the first time in AGES I bought things with horizontal stripes!

Okay, so I wore this outfit the other day running errands and I need opinions: the people at the consignment store assured me I didn’t look like a plus-size Waldo, but my inner fat girl still feels insecure with these stripes and leggings combo.
FWIW, the sweater top is a size SMALL. small. #mindblown.

So I’m posting frontal and side pics to get opinions

You guys have seen the skirt when I tried it on. I coupled it with an obi belt today and I think it works pretty well?

Good Morning beautiful lovelies. I am up and ready, and my boss told me to come in late. We woke up to snow this morning and we got about 4 inches. My boss knows I live out of town and the snow plows don’t get to us till later so she said stay for a little while. Now I’m enjoying the quiet with my cup of coffee while I let my daughter sleep a little longer. I have a long sleeve shirt under my sweater because I’m always cold anyways. I hope you all have a great day. Happy Friday everyone.

Everyone looks so good! I haven’t bought any new clothes for awhile so I have nothing photography worthy. I started to get into refinishing furniture so I’m covered in various chemicals and paint most days. If I have a hobby or something to do on a daily basis I function much better and stay active.

I did finally get off my wallet and ordered a few things, so I’ll need to find an excuse to wear them.

Love the outfits.
Lol, today I got an early start at the Pilates studio, then after I got home my daughter was there and she had surprised me with this cute workout top that she found at TJ Maxx.

Had to throw it in over my tank top and take a selfie:

I went NUTS yesterday shopping. Like $500 nuts. I was a little down after leaving pain management (that’s a whole other story) and decided to get some retail therapy in. I bought clothes back over the summer but they are falling off of me now and the end of season sales were calling my name. I have nowhere to wear these party dresses (yet), bought 2 at Express, will hold them for next years holiday parties! I got a bunch of sweaters and tops, 3 dresses, a romper, and a couple pair of pants! I looked at jeans, but honestly, I actually still like my Walmart jeans the best! I just can’t pull the trigger on jeans that cost over $25 dollars! Even if they are “60% off the already reduced price”. Nope!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
