LONGish 9 Month Update
"As I climbed to my highest 50ish pounds, I didn’t care how I dressed. I bought clothes based on whether or not they fit rather than if I actually liked them…"
GURL. PREACH.
At my biggest, I was wearing tight 4-5x and a tight 30/32. I bought what fit, without much regard to whether or not it really looked good or was flattering.
Mind you, I am still in plus sizes and my body may settle to the smaller end of plus (which I am totally okay with), and now...SO. MANY. CHOICES! It is really overwhelming sometimes just how many more places I can buy clothes that actually fit AND LOOK GOOD! I have to tell myself when I go shopping that if I don't absolutely love it, it doesn't come home with me.
You SHOULD write a WLS friendly cookbook! There is a distinct lack of them, and they should exist. As this and other WLS become more common, it's a niche that needs attention. You and Frisco should partner up!
You are doing fantastically, and I can't wait to see you hit your goal. You are a rockstar! Keep at it!
