Ok, so this surgery thing is supposed to happen in a month or 2 right, so I have committed to not buying amy new stuff.  My OH girlfriends have been great bringing clothes to swap and It has filled in the gaps to get me along, but today I innocently went into Burlington Coat Factory for a couple of skirts.

Well before I realized it I had been attacked by a shopoholic demon!!! You know the little white angel on the left shoulder reasoning with you and the little red devil on the left urging you to go ahead.  Well the little red one won today and $350  and a couple of hours later I had a new improved wardrobe.  I must admit I don't feel a bit of guilt.    It was actually kinda fun.   I did desperately need spring/summer stuff for work. So what if I only get to wear them s few months?  Besides it's not like I'll get rolled out of the operating room a size 8, so I figure they'll still fit at least 2-3 mos post op if not longer.

BTW Burlington had tons of cute summer dresses and the material was nice, not that polyester stuff that makes you sweat.  I am soooo not looking forward to sweating this summer. I should buy stock in baby powder and Summers Eve fem spray.  I swear I have sweat glands where there aren't supposed to be glands. And, working with the public I am always exrtra concerned about hygeine. Do skinny people ever have B.O.?  Don't cute little skinny girls seem like even if they walked a hundred miles in the desert they'd still smell like the perfume counter in Macy's. I on the otherhand walk to the mailbox and feel like I have to shower all over again. (I guess I'll be a cute little skinny girl too soon, so I shouldn't be a hater huh) Post ops have mentioned their body temp is cooler. That is definitely be something to look forward to.  

I am a confessed shopaholic and foodaholic.   This is going to be so much more fun when I am smaller!  Let the games begin!

Good for you.  I'm a shopaholic also.  I can't help it.  I just love to shop.  I went to UGA to visit with my daughter a couple of weeks ago.  We went shopping to find her a dress for formal and I knew I didn't have a lot of money to play with but I played anyway.  I bought 5 new tops.  I wore a new one every day last week.  Unfortunately I couldn't find any pants that fit right.  That will take a lot of trying on and being along so I can take as much time as I want.  I am so used to shopping in Lane Bryant, The Avenue, etc., that I feel like I don't know how to shop for smaller sizes.  I know I will eventually figure it out.  Hope to see you tonight.

don't worry about it.  You can alter them later or have someone do it for you!

Good point. I make custom window treatments, and am a pretty good seamstress, so I'll likely do a lot of alterations in the future.

I checked out your website. Nice. Have you seen ladydiannes.com  ? Her showroom is in Fayetteville. She has a ton of pics on her site.  Good place to snag ideas from.

LaShelle2,

Of course skinny women/girls stink!  I should know - I was one..
I have an @$$h*le, therefore I have an opinion. or two... or forty.
