Had my sleeve in August of 2019. My HW was 316 (groan) and my CW stays between 158 to 160. I pretty much eat whatever I want but in much smaller portions and reasonable exercise. My doctor didn’t want me to go below 165 because of all the loose skin. He was afraid I would be underweight (as if that has ever happened). I am still debating getting a plastic surgery (I am 71 and wondering if it is worth the expense and pain at my age).
The best part of the surgery is the confidence I have about not putting the weight back on.

The skirt is lovely @ms.sss especially for your recent sojourn to Portugal & for summer.

Hey @BayougirlMrsS. Lovely to see you here again. Are you still getting lots of surprise clothing gifts from your other half? What drew you to try golf?

Welcome back @shanza & @bethow.

Welcome back @shanza & @bethow.

Thanks, glad to be back. Yes, Chicos was delivered last week. Nice pair of white pants and a festive shirt. A new golf shirt

golf started many years ago when I was married to x #2 ….. lol. He was a superintendent but would never teach me. Tim and I have enjoyed learning together. I’m doing really good. Scoring around 99 average. My handicap is 31.5.
headed to San Antonio for granddaughter back surgery

Glad Tim keeping up his shopping game for you @BayougirlMrsS. I played golf in high school. Well I say played but really my friends & I chose it was because it was an opportunity to get away from school. We would walk to the club, play the first hole & that was it. The second hole was sort of private & we’d sit in the sun & gossip. Perfect way to spend our Friday afternoon sports periods. Lol!

Hope your granddaughter’s back surgery goes well. How old is she?

couldn't resist a deal. picked up these "sock stilettos" at the mall today for $30 CDN. i have absolutely no where to wear them, so i'm just playing dress up at home. paired them with a faux leather skirt which i also bought on a whim a couple years back which i have worn in public a total of ONE time, ha.

if it wasn't for this OOTD thread, human eyes would not be laid on like 3/4 of my wardrobe 😂.

i need to get out (and dress up!) more.

p.s. pro tip: wear super high heels will make you look taller and skinner than you really are!

p.p.s. oh, and cross one leg in front of the other one in pictures...makes your butt/hips look like they actually exist!!

Very cool. Sock stilettos are great @ms.sss. I have a long, stretch suede version with a mid heel which gives a similar look & actually fit my calves neatly. (Who’d a thunk that boots can be too big in the calves.) I’m in love with Victoria Beckham’s toe peeper boot version. Apparently the upper ‘sock’ is a mesh so I guess like a thick opaque hose. Unfortunately (my credit card says fortunately) my size in the black is sold out.

$1668.75 Australian. Hence my credit card being happy my size is sold out. I can still dream … and buy a lotto ticket in case they come back in. 😂😂😂

        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!!
