Hi Jennifer. I have found that I just try different things on to see what works for me. I dont buy too much because they dont seem to fit for long. I started at 190lbs. and I am down to 185lbs. 6 months post op. So anyway my size keeps changing. So far I have stuck to basics. I have kind of felt like you do as far as age goes.I am 32 and have been overweight for awhile. I like to try different shirts with simple black pants or skirts. I also like to wear tops that are more form fitting than loose. I find that loose shirts make me look heavier. I hope I have been some help. Heather

Happy Easter everyone! Hope you all have a wonderful day. I am having family over to my house for many yummy things. I will do my best to not overdo with my eating. I wanted to share something I put together tonight. I made an online photo album with a bunch of my before pics and some progress pictures. The rapid change in me is so freaky, and to think that some of you have lost nearly double what I've lost in the same time frame!! I can't imagine how incredble that must be. If you want to see my pictures, then just click on the www tab below, then when you get to the site, just click on "view my photos" I still have between 25-50 lbs left to lose. Oh, and one more EXCITING thing to add... remember when I was complaining that I had developed a "chicken neck" from the weight loss? I have a picture of it in the album from a few weeks ago!!! WELL, it's nearly gone now! That is proof that our skin may be shrinking at a different rate than the fat cells, and so there is HOPE! Yippeeeee! Either that, or the L'oreal cream I am using is a miracle cure for chicken necks! Just had to share with you guys. Love, Sue

Hi Jennifer Congrats on your success so far! You are doing great! How awesome to be 5'10"! You get to eat more than us shorties, plus everything looks good on you. I don't claim to be a fashion expert but I LOVE shopping and have learned a few things. For one, Try on some fitted tops. This is sexy without being revealing. They don't have to be tight! But they shouldn't be at all smock-like or loose either. We have worn enough of that stuff to last a lifetime! Just cut to fit instead of big and boxy. I love bootcut jeans (slightly wider at the bottom... not bell bottom and not straight) I find that they balance out the bottom and make me look slimmer (the ones with a bit of stretch, but not too much are best.) I like fitted tops with cardigans alot, partly because I'm always cold, and partly because sweaters give me a portable security blanket when I'm not 100% comfortable in fitted clothes. I can take it off or put it on depending how I'm feeling. My biggest problem is that I gravitate to black tops and jeans, but I am trying to expand my horizons with a bit of color. In the summer, I plan to do cottony print skirts (to hide my belly sag ) with a more fitted t shirt and flip flops or slides. The best thing is really just to try on a bunch of stuff and see what you like! Ask a friend whose style you like to go with you. I forgot to notice where you live, but hey, if need be you can fly me out to be your shopping buddy!I'm here for ya! I'm a great bargain finder too But seriously, take some pics after your shopping spree and share them with us, I'd love to see what you find! Happy shopping! Love, Sue

I'm so sorry that you're going through all this - but I must admit you have a great attitude despite all the problems - God bless you for that. Hoping you have more success with your revision and better health/recovery following that. Please keep us posted!

Hey, the "skinny" girls always flaunt themselves and I've seen not so skinny girls flaunting the flab in to tight clothes - so why shouldn't you treat yourself to somethng nice and sexy? Nothing wrong with that!!! And you deserve it cause you've worked for it!!! I want to be wearing some nice sexy (not to sexy though) clothes. Who cares? The important thing is that you feel about yourself!!
