Nana Trish Report post Posted April 14, 2018 (edited) I honestly don't think I will ever get comfortable shopping for new clothes...and it'll be a long time before I will shop anything but sales racks. But I found a couple of pairs of capris and a couple of tops...same style, different colors. Kmart special, lol. Tops are size large, and capris are size small I'm just posting pics of one outfit...the other is the same shirt in grey, and black capris. Oh, and the tags are still on there, lol Edited April 14, 2018 by Nana Trish 4 Jen581791, xmandy, Ladybugzzz86 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jen581791 Report post Posted April 14, 2018 Look at those skinny little legs! You are looking just great I hope you're enjoying your increased mobility, too! Congrats on your straight-sizes purchases - so much more fun to shop when you can get stuff in the regular section. Don't buy too much now, of course, but I think these look like some wise choices until you figure out where you'll end up. 1 Nana Trish reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now if only I can get my evaluations done on my knees and back so I can get on with some PT, and maybe get my knees to straighten out even a little. That’s as far as I can straighten them up...I look like I’m forever beginning to crouch. But my PCP says the physical therapist won’t touch me until we can see how far the spinal stenosis has progressed. But that’s still not going to stop me from Walking I still have to push my wheel chair, but at least I’m doing it!!! Its definitely more fun shopping now that I know I can grab most things I like and have them fit the way I’m comfortable. Lots and LOTS of loose skin will keep me in longer tops, but that’s ok I may just buy one more outfit, but that’ll be it until my body finally settles on my final weight. 1 Jen581791 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are having a blizzard at the moment! Thank you, @Cheesehead!! Last night, hubby said soon I will be able to wear my new clothes Walking...I said yeah, maybe sometime in mid June! I was freezing trying them on last night, and wondering if it was smart buying what I did, when I’ll probably need a sweater or sweatshirt over it anyway! I’m sorry you’re getting a blizzard!!! BRRR! Our forecast is pretty bleak today...for the next couple of days actually. This is getting ridiculous! I hope you don’t end up with too much snow! Oh yeah!! My kitty decided to jump in there at the last minute...his name is Francois, and he’s a huge love!! ❤️ Edited April 14, 2018 by Nana Trish 1 Cheesehead reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
