This has happened twice recently so I thought I?d post...

Really is a WLS miracle... considering all the years of losing and gaining.. and never knowing when I switched clothes for the season would the season of clothes I was taking out still fit?

In October I went to a wedding and wore the same dress I wore the year before in October to a wedding...Hadn?t looked at it , and I pulled it out of the closet a year later and didn?t have to worry about it fitting.

This is

Thanksgiving 2016 vs Thanksgiving 2017

Thanks Mary, I had it cut this week and was determined to make the salon blowout last until the holiday. Dry shampoo works wonders.

Love it. Congratulations. Part RNY - a lot of hard work you put in it. You are using you tool as it was designed, plus I know you put the extra hard work. You look great. And happy.

In 9 years my weight fluctuated some but not enough to cause a complete "closet change". I often ***** about my RNY and issues I developed post op, but I know I could not maintain my weight as well as I do it over last 9 years without it.

Congratulations Cynthia. I love following your story- I can relate on so many levels.

today I pulled out the t-shirt I wore when I ran a thanksgiving 5k 2 years ago. It's a 2X. I remember picking up the shirt before the race being disappointed I was 'still' a 2x. I realize now how hard I was on myself...I was only 7 months out then! I'm wearing it today, it fits fits like a dress.
