I just have to tell someone......



Recommended Posts

I was out today shopping for a new dress for a wedding. I went into Macy's and was looking at some dress when I see a dress I really like a lot. The colors where great looking on me but here is the biggest news that I just gotta tell some one. I tried on a 20 thinking this was the size I was in but nope so I went down to an 18 and this one was too big as well. So my mom got the same dress in an 16 and it fit! I just could not believe that a 16 actually fit me. I was so happy that I started to dance right in the dressing room. I have not seen this size since my youngest daughter was born in 1986. Yep that is right 1986 over 20 years ago. :tt2: I just had to tell someone else besides my mom and DH. He also said I am looking so good and keep it up.

OUTSTANDING!!!! My daughter took me shopping for MD and bought me a size 14 jeans. I haven't been a 14 anything since she was a baby and she was born in 1980!! I remember loosing after my youngest and being happy to get down to an 18. Great job and keep it going.

Saturday must have been the day for great shopping experiences! I went looking for something to wear to my 40th high school reunion...I mean, these people haven't seen me in 5 years so I wanted something to make a big splash. And, I found a fantastic outfit .... and it's an 18/20 as opposed to the 26 I would have been looking for. Went to Dress Barn and the sales clerk that helped me was absolutely the nicest person .... helped me pick something that made me look like I have more waist than I do. I was so happy with that outfit that I bought several outfits! And one of them is just a little too tight but for the first time in my life I went ahead and bought it KNOWING that in a couple of weeks it will be perfect. Dang, this feels great!

Congratulations!!!! That feels SOOO awesome doesn't it!??? Today, I pulled out three pairs of old jeans because the ones I've been wearing were too big (24s) and I was thrilled that the largest of the three (I tried those on first) F-I-T!! They're 20s. So I totally get how thrilling that is.

Gosh - can't wait til I'm in a 16 too!!!! Course, by then you'll be in like 12s or 10s at least! ..... lol.

Cheers to us all!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
