    Default NSV at the clothing store

    Happy Wednesday!

    I haven't bought new clothes since my surgery because I was trying to avoid the expense. Yesterday I decided enough was enough (I'm totally sick of baggy clothes and having to wear tank tops under stuff because it falls off) and I went shopping. Since my surgery I have dropped 4 pant sizes and 2 shirt sizes (and probably need to go down another size). I was so excited I couldn't stand it! My jeans are too big and all my casual shirts are huge.

    In my head I knew that dropping weight was going to mean I would drop sizes, but this was a dramatic difference and I almost wasn't prepared for it. I bought two pairs of work pants and will probably go back when I get paid for one more. The pants have the buttons on the side so I can make them a size smaller when they get too big. Holy cow it's exciting.

    Less than 2 months ago my life was so different I almost can't remember what it was like. The sleeve is definately the best thing I've ever done.

    Hi Kacie, here's what I'm eating today:

    Breakfast: Coffee & Unjury Chocolate Splender (almost as good as 'real' iced coffee with all the fat)
    Snack: Raspberry Chobani Bite greek yogurt (I LOVE these, they're 100 cals and 8-10g protein
    Lunch: 2 pieces of deli ham with light cream cheese
    Dinner: I have a chicken breast marinating in the fridge, I'll have half today and half tomorrow.
    Snack (I don't usually eat this snack because I go to bed near bedtime) sugar/fat free chocolate pudding made with 1% skim milk and a scoop of unjury unflavored.

    Now, this is what works for me. It looks like you're dropping a significant amount of weight - remember that everyone's different.

    You are doing wonderful!!! Isn't the Chobani Bite greek yogurt just a little bowl of love? I have only tried the coffee one & look forward to trying the others.
    Keep up the good work!

    Wow! That's truly inspirational! I was about to moan and groan about the way my body feels right now, but you just reminded me why I wanted to do this in the first place. Thanks! And also, thanks for the mention of unjury... hadn't heard of it.
