Me on the right and my cousin that I haven't seen in over 20 years. Who knew we both get our nails done by the same person. Pre-op I probably wouldn't have let anyone take my picture.

Hello my RnY friends, and Happy Friday! Can you believe it's already December 7?
I haven't finished my Christmas shopping by far, but everything will be done within this next week or so. I've been trying to relax and find some peace, trying to enjoy this beautiful and holy season. I've been very stressed for the last couple of months and it's not over yet, though for the moment okay. This weekend I will finish decorating the house, and see the guy I've been seeing, which should be nice, even if he doesn't do dinners out!
I tried on several pairs of jeans a few weeks ago to no avail, all looked pretty bad on me. Following the advice of a couple of people here I ordered a pair of NYDJ jeans and they came yesterday. They do fit, which I'm happy about - these are literally the first pair of jeans I've purchased in absolute ages. Though I wasn't obese all of the years in between, I've always been sensitive, probably too sensitive, to how I looked in pants, especially jeans - I had to be in the 130s to feel I looked slim enough to wear them successfully. I can wear any kind of skirt or dress and feel good at a higher point, but I had an issue with wearing pants, feeling I had a spotlight on my derierre, hips, etc. which was not terribly flattering. I do think that's mostly in my head, but there it is. Anyway it's literally been DECADES since I bought myself a new pair of jeans. Since the rest of the country pretty much lives in them, it feels good to finally join in again.
Yesterday I weighed in at 133.0, following a night of pain due to wolfing down my dinner. Yesterday my total cals were 550, but I still weighed in at 133.8 today - where did that .8 come from? The mysteries of the human body!
First: tea with syrup. Over and over again.
B: tuna with a little melted cheddar
L: salmon with a little Greek yogurt with dill
D: Not sure yet. Protein forward for sure!
Wishing you all a beautiful Friday!
Here is a pic of me in my new jeans. Sorry it's so big. I forgot to crop it.
