Okay, now. Casual lunch with whom in that sexy little outfit? The boots are amazing! Great look for you. Your shoe + clothes closet come mid-night is going to start growling to the wild side! After all, cats are nocturnal... LOL

Oh nuts & awww man. I have literally never found anything i liked there. I have sold a few of my plus size things there (but then started to just donate)

I think my tastes are too specific. I have consider poshmark for a minute but again i hate shopping online

I think I know what I need to do...

The vast majority of my clothes are from Poshmark. Shoes, too. I just got in some leather pants and a NWT LLBean cashmere sweater today, each was $20 + shipping.

Poshmark is how I’ve been able to indulge in my want for nice clothes, and my tendency to be cheap. Well, and I’m still losing.

My burgeoning scarf collection is from local thrifting. It’s easier to get massive steals from them for those things.

I had an epiphany today when I was taking the pics above.

The person in that mirror is pretty much exactly the person I aspired to be. It struck me that I am literally living my best life right now. And while things are never going to be perfect (see my arms in the pic above for example), things right now are d@mn good. I always knew that WLS would be a positive in my life. But I'm not sure how or why, but it finally feels like all the pieces have finally fallen into place for me.

I'd like to thank all the participants on this thread. The support and positive feedback from and for everyone is AMAZING. It feels so rare to find such genuine encouragement now days. You all have played a role in me gaining confidence that I never even fully realized I was lacking. THANK YOU!

CONGRATULATIONS HOTTIE WITH THE BODIE 😬

Yay you for recognizing and being grateful for how far you've come, and understanding that true perfection isn't a reality for anyone. Way to go! Your look amazing!

Love. Love. Love these jeans on you. Wear them all the time. Unless of course you did a bulk order of them in various colours, in which case just wear them all on rotation. ❤️

There are a few tips/tricks that can help get the best deals.

  • look for specifics in your size, for example “brown silk shirt”. Narrowing it down makes it easier.
  • hit the little heart button on anything that looks like it may work for you, that lets the seller know you are interested. They can then send you an offer that is lower than the listed price if they are very motivated. This happens A LOT.
  • You can send a seller an offer, and they either accept it or counter offer you, or they ignore it (this is rare). I’ve gotten things at much lower prices by doing this.
  • Go by the measurements, we know how sizing is WAY irregular, especially when throwing vintage items in the mix.

Most of my sweaters are either wool or cashmere at this point, all bought through Poshmark at the $20-30 range. I’m so much warmer now! Pants of course are a bit riskier, fit wise.

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
