UPDATE further in the thread - Ever have irrational fears?
Funny cause I just went through this today!! In 2011 I had a lap band put in. I bought a shirt I saw that I fell in love with but was too small when I bought it, as incentive to lose the weight I needed to lose. Eventually I got down to where I could wear the shirt but it was always a little too tight. Then the band slipped, I had it taken out and gained back some of the weight I had lost and the shirt no longer fit. I don't know why but I couldn't bring myself to throw it out so it has hung in my closet for the past 4 years. I had RNY 5 weeks ago - today I was looking at that shirt hanging in my closet and I figured I may as well try it on and see how much more I need to lose before it will fit me 'cause I was sure it would still be too small. WELL - It's almost too BIG!!!! I may not get much use out of it now - wish I'd tried it on earlier instead of being so convinced it wouldn't yet fit me!!
Did you try them on? I am dying to know how it went...... This is my life.
Alas, I tried on the 16's. Not there yet. I could get them on but it looked like I was melted and poured into them. Definitely not comfortable but I figure another 20 pounds and I should be in them just fine! Thanks for the positive posts to get me try them on! Appreciate it!
