I can get new, cute clothes off the clearance rack for crazy prices.  I'm an average size!  Here's my $12 dress:




It takes so much less time and effort to look decent.  I remember trying so hard for the below picture and then wanting to cry when I saw it.  Thank you DS.

I need to lose about 2 more pounds for a normal BMI .  I still seem to be slowly losing at over 2 yrs out...so may get there yet.

So first of all, congratulations!  You are so tiny!  And that dress is GREAT.

Next, and here's the funny part, I totally have that shirt.  AND it took me about 2 weeks to find something that I was happy to wear but I looked like a cow in it.  If I can find the picture of me in it, I'll post it for you but I'm pretty sure I deleted it off my camera's card because I couldn't believe how fat I looked - it was horrifying.  We could be twins - seriously.  Although I would be the fatter twin.  :)

Well not twins anymore either.  But I'm hoping to get to the point where I can buy a cute and sassy $12 dress in a normal size!

You have done amazing.  SO happy for you!

Thank you.  Yeah that shirt is pretty Gawd Awful.  And sweety, your time is coming.  I promise.  It is pretty hard to screw this surgery up, and you really seem to have your head in the right place.  You are going to do great!

 Not only do you look great, but you've got great taste in clothes!

Thanks!  For the first time in many years, I feel like I'm buying clothes that represent me- Not just clothes that cover my backside.  I absolutely love it.
