Are You Cleaning Out Your Closet Yet?



Recommended Posts

How is everyone doing?? I'm doing great. The past few weeks I've done some major shopping and it felt great. My old clothes were looking ridiculous on me. I went nuts with all the sales and I bought all new stuff and they were medium and they fit!!

Do you know how great it feels? I was a 2x before surgery and now I'm wearing regular clothes.

I've been having issues with finding a right fill level though. I'm currently at 6cc's but still finding that I'm hungry...however moving up .5cc's is too much and makes me too tight. I'm exercising and still losing so I'm not too concerned yet.

So how is everyone doing?

That's fabulous that you are buying regular clothes now! I am 2x on the top and 1x on the bottom. I have decided to wait until I lose a lot more before I buy anything. I haven't lost enough yet. Plus, I am making it something to look forward to. A reward of sorts. You go girl!

I have cleaned out my closet twice, I have a lot of clothes. Before sugery I was a 24 and I am not fitting into a misses 18. I still have a lot of larger clothes that I am still wearing, but soon will have to go. Luckily I had several peices in my closet that were a lot smaller, so it has helped. I tooke a few of my favorite piece in to be altered, but it wasn't enought all she did was the waist, so I may have to pull out my sewing machine and adjust them a little more. But it feels great to be able to go look in the misses department.

      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.
