@AngieBear I know its been said on this thread over and over, but seriously, its been fascinating to watch you shrink on this thread! I think because you are one of the few that started posting regularly closest to your surgery date?

Anyhoo...you should totally put a slide show together of all your pics that shows you shrinking to the beat of some song.....LOL. I'd watch something like that on loop.

❤️

Thank you so much for saying this. One of the reasons that I post in here is as a mental exercise to battle dysmorphia. I’m not the type to look in a mirror and give myself positive affirmations, but taking pictures of my outfits is something I can do. It helps with mentally mapping out my body. I’d have to say the dysmorphia is still there, but I suspect it’s far better than I would have if I didn’t participate here.

My hope was that we’d have more people posting as they lose. I think it’s so important to love yourself where you are now, spend even a bit of money on some nice thrift store clothes as you shrink so that you feel confident in your skin, and celebrate the work you are putting in. I chose to have bariatric surgery not because I hated myself and where I was, but because I love myself and wanted the freedom that not being MO brings. Like it or not, the world is cruel to people who are MO. It’s personal as well as systemic.

Anyhoo, enough rambling! Here is today’s outfit. I need to tailor the blazer’s sleeves a bit, but I think otherwise it hits well on my hips, and I can officially close it over my chest now! So, I got to pull it out of my “to shrink into” bin last night.

Honest opinions. How do they look straight on? Obviously fake?

Me too ... this was my first attempt at it, not encouraging! ?

In hindsight, this just isn't the right jacket. It doesn't even look great on the model.

Okay, so is there anything wrong with looking like Big Bird? He rocks that yellow. And he’s a pretty cool guy!

I don’t think they look fake. The proportions aren’t off for your figure at all.

Actually, I'm quite impressed how the "crack" looks very realistic.

P.S. I ordered one...

I have no pic, but have to share with someone! I ordered a pair of”wide calf” boots that I’ve been eyeing FOREVER - got them about a month ago and couldn’t even come close to zipping them up over my apparently overly-wide calves. I’m three days out from surgery and thought I’d try again - today the zipper went up all the way! It was a little snug in the widest part, but I know that soon I’ll be wearing them for real!!!! ???
