I had to break down and go buy a couple new pairs of pants and a couple shirts tonight. Mine were falling off of me. I bought 2 pairs of large yoga pants and 2 xl Hanes long sleeve t's and guess what they fit. I didn't try them on in the store and I told Ed if they don't fit now they will soon. I came home and tried them on and broke down in tears. I haven't been this size since grade 8 and even then it wasn't for long. I did realize I'm in much need of smaller panties lol. When I had my surgery I was wearing a 2xl on the bottom and a 2-3xl on the top. I have to figure out what type of panties to buy with some support. Any suggestions, (I can't wear nylon type)?

I also bought an CardioStyle Elliptical. I posted an ad on a local site not thinking I would find a good price on one and if I did it would be old and or broken. To my surprise a lady had one for $50, I thought well I can atleast go look at it. It was brand new. She bought it from Candian Tire for $400 because she had bad knees and thought it would help but it didn't. I had told her why I wanted it and she said $50 was good. I gave her such a big hug and once again had a cry.

I LOVE MY RNY

Congrats Heidi! How exciting!
I have bins and bins of clothes in my basement from size 8 to 22. First I will "shop" those bins and re-find clothes I bought years ago. Who knows? Some of them may have come back into style!
