Yes, I dress differently. I don't wear baggy anymore. I love brighter colors. Jules

Like everyone else, I wear tighter clothing to make me look thinner. Brighter colors cuz I want to be noticed and seen. More fashionable style cuz I feel younger. Sexier cuz I feel prettier and sexier. I like things tighter....stretchy waistbands make me feel fat cuz it doesn't hold me in. A lot of this is in my head, I know. But I want to look thin and have people think of me as thin. And in order to do that, I need to have buttons, zippers, and snug clothes. Jolene

I share clothes with my 23-year old daughter now, so "our" clothes are much more fashionable than anything I've owned in the past! I love colors now - used to be a lot of black and blue. I love tight jeans (so does my boyfriend!). Panties and bras are a lot more fun now. Yes, even shoes are more exciting!

I don't think I dress sexier...maybe more "hip"

Yes more colors and styles.

I still dress about the same style..but I have more clothing in my closet to choose from...I notice that I wear the same colors all the time and need to get out of that habit.

I've been buying more fitting clothing, which ends up showing off my weight loss more. And colors I never would have thought I'd wear, I'm wearing!

I think it is easier to wear more stylish cloths since I am currently in a size 14 but I certainly don't set out to wear low cut sexy stuff. I am a little nervous about this summer because my arms look so bad and not sure I want to be seen in a tank top. Haven't figured that out yet. Sally

Im still early into the process, I have found that I prefer to wear clothes that fit rather than baggy big clothes, so I will be weeding the old stuff out, and am not sure what I will buy to replace it. Vivienne

I'm still early in the process (pre-op) and I'm just losing into existing clothes. So I can't say that I'm dressing sexier. But I am feeling more confident. Christine
