Haven't done any real clothes shopping since starting this journey - I've been able to shop my closet. I'm still at least 40 lbs from goal, but I had some Kohl's  cash to use after DH bought a coat last week. I bought 2 Medium pullover sweaters and a pair of size 12 pants and they all fit.  I know clothes sizes vary widely, but that's a far cry from size 24 or 3x where I started.  I love my rny.  And the best part is after my coupons it only cost $19.02.  Yeah me.

NSV=Non Scale Victory. Something awesome that's happened to you are a result of surgery that isn't tied to the number on the scale--like fitting in an airplane seat or doing something active that you wouldn't have tried.

  • High Weight before LapBand: 200 (2008)
  • High Weight before RNY: 160 (2015)
  • Lowest post-op weight: 110 (2016)
  • Maintenance Weight: 120 (2017-2019)
  • Battling Regain Weight: 135 (current)
