Thanks everyone again for feeding my ego monster 😂

You all look amazing! I love how we all have different styles (even if @ms.sss's is transparent 🤣)

No new pics from me today. I'm repeating my white pants and green top outfit from last week, cause I ❤️ it! (New city, different peeps, so it's all good!)

I'm sorry, but doesn't this phenomenon signal a "New Dress Day" shopping event? ;) hehe

Hey now, be nice to yourself. I’m not at goal, and everyone in here has been nothing but nice. I also certainly don’t look like a hippo, and still rock some cute outfits.

Other posters aren’t at goal and still look great! We don’t need to hide in the shadows or be ashamed of how we look, at any step. I refuse to, and find the sentiment that being a bit (or even a lot) from a specific weight means that you should hide or aren’t worthy of nice clothes disheartening and sad.

Bears unite! Love your body in all its stages ❤️ Or at least don’t say mean things about it ❤️

AGREE 💚

Okay, those pants are great. Brand?

sorry, missed this question...

it actually belongs/belonged to my daughter (she let me have it because its to "bright" for her, lol). If I remember correctly, it bought it for her from Walmart a couple years ago, so I doubt they still carry it.

(...and it's like a child size M/L...)

I need no excuse for "New Dress Day" 🤣 Honestly Prime Delivery Day & Amazon Lockers have made it way too easy for me to order what I really don't need and don't have to worry about it sitting on my porch when I'm out of town.

I also have weird personal work wardrobe rules. Dresses are reserved for customer meetings, or big important internal meetings. Pants are for working sessions. Of course there are all kinds of exceptions to my own rules 🤣

Everyone looks so nice!

I’m with @sillykitty on Amazon wardrobe. My entire outfit is from them including my shoes. Bonus, I got shorts that fit me! It was under $50.00 easily. This is me today in my usual clothes, I don’t get dressed up very often. I prefer casual for myself. Once a tomboy, always a tomboy.

I love the color Navy and decided to fully embrace that today.

Thanks for the encouraging words everyone.
Honestly I’ve been wearing the same clothes for the last couple of months and almost everything I have is really baggy and not at all what I would consider stylish or cute.
I’m so conservative by nature that I can’t bring myself to buy more than the bare necessities atm while I’m transitioning.
So what I have are Pilates outfits, work clothes (all about a size too large now) and that’s really it.
I figure I can make what I’m wearing stretch until fall clothes season starts— really only 6-8 weeks ahead and In the meantime, I’ll stay frumpy in my oversized stuff.
Besides..... I’ll hopefully be a size smaller by then 😁

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. 🤣🤣🤣

You look great @Sheribear68. Wear the jeans around the house for an hour and they will feel comfortable. They look like they fit.

OMG! You look fabulous!!!! So great to see you!!! I think we might be twins! Our shapes are very similar!!! (And the pants fit you across your hips but may already be too big lower down around your knees. :) Next month they will be huge on you!!!)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
