Last night I was emptying out my closet to give all my larger sized clothes to my aunt and a friend.  I haven't gone back and tried on my old favorites, so last night I decided to try on the only pair of pants that used to fit me and that I literally wore everyday.  I think seeing just how big they were on me now helped with some of the body dysmorphia I have.  I suggest keeping an old pair of clothes so you can try them on to see and feel how much smaller you are after surgery!  I didn't take pre-measurements and SO WISH I DID...so this is another way to see progress.

My entire plus size wardrobe is sitting on the floor behind me...now my closet is empty...DARN guess I'll have to go shopping!!!

congrats you look great.
My surgeon gave me the tool. Now it is up to me to use it right.

Amazing!! I too have those go-to pairs of jeans that I wear every day. I have 3 pairs that I rotate through and even though I bought them only months ago they're already starting to get worn in that stupid spot where my thighs rub together. I am so grateful I won't have to worry about patching them or finding new jeans!!! (date set - Aug. 15!)

You look amazing and happy :)

 Less than a month...it goes by so fast!  Make sure you measure and save a pair of pants...great to help your brain realize the progress your body is making!

 Definately do.  Its hard to explain, but when I look in the mirror I don't see how much smaller I am.  Looking at pics, comparing #'s and trying on old clothes all help your brain catch up.  I'm still not there, but trying...
