A good kind of bad thing
Just wanted to share this. I had set aside a
bunch of clothes that were way too tight for me when I
had my surgery. I was waiting until they would fit.
This morning I pulled a nice purple shirt out hoping I
would be able to wear it by now and guess what? Its a
night shirt now. It hags on me so bad I couldt possibly
wear it. Im mad I missed the opportunity to wear all
these clothes, but Im glad Im alot smaller then I
thought. I went through everything and only 1 pair of
pants were wearable.<br>Its only been 7 months since
surgery. I didnt think these items would fit for another
few months. This purple shirt at one time was my
favorite. Oh well. Its a good reason to go shopping

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!<br>I know exactly what you are
talking aout… one thing I have done throughout my
weight-loss has been to keep the "next outfit" on the corner
of my bed! Every few days I try it on… and watch
how at first I couldn’t get a pair of jeans over my
fat thighs, to the point where I have given them away
because they are size 22 and I am a 14! I also have to
admit to you all I used to go in my daughter’s room
when she was gone for the weekend and try on her
clothes as I was getting closer to the 15/14 mark! You
see I hadn’t been a 14 in so long… there were NO
dream clothes at my house! So now that I am the same
size as my daughter… she has gotten upset and lost a
few pounds and is now a 12…. (yea, more dream
clothes to try on!) I have friends that are always
finding clothes and passing them down to me and I keep
them on hand!<br><br>I have one last thing to share
with you all! I have a current boyfriend… (yeppers
it is SO much fun!) and I had to tell him about the
surgery because of my eating habits… well he was sooo
funny "WHY would your doctor let you have something
like that?" he asked… well duh.. but I didn’t point
it out to him… nor have I showed him ANY fat
pics… but if ur relationship continues to grow…
maybe… MAYBE I will show him some then! (but then again,
WHY!!!! LOL)<br><br>Thanks for allowing me to share… I
love this place and thank God for each of you every
day! It is only through the support of this site would
I have done so well this year… thank
you!<br><br>Cindy
