Another NSV

When I got married 3 and a half years ago, I searched high and low for a simple outfit to wear (wasn't a big ceremony and wanted something kind of casual that I could wear again one day). This city is filled with pencil thin, boobless model wannabes lol, so my search took ages. I finally found a shop that had a lovely light lavendar skirt and top. It was just what I had been looking for. When I tried on the biggest size, the skirt was super tight ;) Luckily, the blouse came down over my gut to hide it a little bit. I looked around at other shops though and that was the closest I could find to something that looked half way decent on me.

This weekend, I fished it out of the closet, just to see if I could squeeze my big arse into it yet. Low and behold, it was LOOSE! Not like falling off loose or anything, but moving room loose for sure.

That inspired me to try on a few other outfits that I had bought before I moved to Australia, in the hopes that one day I'd fit into them. They ALL fit!!! So I'm now smaller than my DH has ever seen me. Still as big as I was when I was 9 months pregnant, but I'm not concentrating on that hehehe.

You ought to try hanging round a university campus Jess! I couldnt believe it when I started my degree at the ripe old age of 36. When I was at uni right after school 20 + years ago, there were people of all shapes and sizes from all walks of life.

Well not anymore. Where have all the ugly people gone? Every girl is pencil thin, gorgeous and every boy is buffed and tanned. Its unbelievable, it looks like a movie set! Not only that but they all have the latest mobile phones, everyone has brand new cars (no driving round hotted up Cortina's like we all did), acrylic nails, tinted hair, designer sunglasses and amazing clothes.

My goal is to fit in a lecture theatre seat. I cant pull the table down and when the person next to me moves theirs my thigh gets in the way :=(

Well done though - I dont think I'd even try my wedding dress for at least 30 kilos!

Excellent work Pavarthi! Excellent work!

Oh Jachut, I know exactly what you mean. Except there are plenty of fat boys. This semester I am able to fit in the desks better and in the lecture hall my sexy tummy isn't squashed against the table... :)

Everyday I think about getting into some of my "other" clothes. I don't know why I haven't thrown them out yet, but reading great news like this makes me glad I didn't. That is great news. Keep up the great work!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
