Thrift stores and consignment shops can be your best clothes shopping, socks and skivvies excluded, places while losing rapidly. Secondly, if you are attending support meetings in person, or your Dr. office can turn you on to one, they may have clothing swaps you can check into.

Had a good week back at work.
Today heading to a Superbowl party. The hostess is a chef, so I'm sure there will be plenty of non-bariatric friendly things to eat there. I'm making some venison chili with jalepeno.
Good week to all!

Spent part of the day yesterday doing yard work crap. To wit spreading granular weed pre emerge and trimming low hanging tree limbs. Shoulders feeling it.
As to the game itself - damn sure not the Rams since they beat the Cowboys and Saints under controversial cir****tances. I'll assert my Fifth amendment privilege to remain silent on the outcome.
Have a Great Week, Guys!!
Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!! 
Learning to eat post op is A LOT of trial and error. New foods that don't agree with you today set them aside and give it a few weeks and try it again. My nemesis was grilled chicken. Only two times I had projectile vomiting post-op was on dry grilled chicken. Okay with it now but I hit one tough spot eating a piece - I'm done! Not going to chance it.
Safe travels. No snow in Houston this week. Wet and a little cold but not like what you are coming from.
For the Federal employees, and your creditors, going back to work is a good thing. Playing nice in the sand box is not a likely outcome.

Still learning the limits of my new body. Had a couple of misadventures involving in one case a slice of pizza and in another case a bowl of high fiber cereal. Overall, it's easy peasy compared to a couple weeks ago when I was just starting solid foods.
If I was a good person I'd probably be going to the gym but right now I'm just working and doing the normal self and home care stuff. Hours aren't as bad as they were preop, I'm only doing about 55 a week right now (down from 60+) but I'm still pretty spent in my down time.
I'm glad to hear everybody is back to work. I am hopefully going to Houston this week and will miss the coldest of the cold. Unfortunately, we are getting 5 to 8 inches of snow tomorrow, so the flying could be tough. The high on Wednesday is supposed to be 15 below. The wind chill is supposed to be like 35 below.
Not much weight lost this week, but I lost a half inch off my chest. I really would like to get to a smaller size than what I am at now before I stop losing.

Prayers out to the families in Athens.
Yes! Furlough gone for now. Back to work Monday. Maybe the next three weeks they will
play nice in the sandbox, but I doubt it. Even though I got a lot of stuff done around
home, I still put on a few pounds. It will be nice not having access to the mindless
eating for at least 9 or so hours a day.
Met a couple who have had WLS (sleeve) through mutual friends. Nice going out with people who can relate.
Good week to all
