Guest guest Posted August 12, 2001 Report Share Posted August 12, 2001 Congratulations. THat had to be a GREAT feeling... Shopping Hi Everyone I don't post often but read daily, actually a couple of times a day. Anyway, I wanted to share something. Yesterday I went to the mall and was trying on pants...something I hate to do because my legs have always been the bigger part of me, meaning if it fit in the leg, then it was way to big in the waste. Well, I fit into a size 10 Tommy girl jeans and 10 Levi's....I am so excited. I settled for the Levi's cause they were half the price, but when I get down to my goal weight I will buy some Tommy Jeans....WooHoo a size 10, a couple of more months and I will be in the single digits for sizes!!! I am 5'1 so single digits for me is a lot better! It's funny cause I have only lost about 8lbs since mid June, but went back to work on Friday for just the day (off for the summer) and everyone noticed a HUGE difference, so even if you aren't losing on the scale doesn't mean your not losing that fat!! Whatta ride, thanks Dr. Rutledge!!! Tania in MD 9/7/00 SW-242 CW-157 GW-118-128 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 12, 2001 Report Share Posted August 12, 2001 Tania- Congratulations!! I can't even imagine single digits. I SO understand what you mean. I have the opposite problem. If it fits in my stomach then it is huge in the legs. I wear a 14 - but think I could wear a 10 in my legs. I am always searching for tapered legs. I was doing my pre-op work when you danced - I remember following so many of you during that time. I was glued to my computer reading the updates every day wondering if it would ever happen for me......

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 Jan, Personally I hate to shop, but I hope you have the absolute best day possible!!! Buy something you simply don't have any need of, and put it where you will see it every day to remind you often what it's like to do something on the fly! Every time you see it you will be reminded of the wonderful time you shared with your daughter. What a fine opportunity to make some great memories. ENJOY!!!!!

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Okay, time for MY rant! LOL I went shopping a couple of times in the last few days. It was really nice to have a handicapped parking sticker, but often the handicapped spaces aren't the closest to the door or they are full. There is NEVER a working " cart " to drive at Wal-mart. And they have taken almost all of the seating out to make room for holiday merchandise. I have complained to the management several times. They don't care. At my favorite yarn/hobby store most of the carts have yarn or other threads wound around the wheels of the grocery type push carts so they are very hard to " drive " . I need those carts to use as a walker. At Kohl's I walked all the away across the store today to go to the one handicapped dressing room only to find it was closed because it was WET. Don't even want to think what that means! It is very difficult for me to try on clothes if I don't have a place to sit down and rest. Can we talk bras again? Sorry Ken! I even went to a store that specializes in hard to fit sizes and cancer patients and couldn't find anything. The lady who " helped " me just didn't understand that a bra could fit one side and the wire could stab me in the arm pit on the other. Nor did she understand why I couldn't stand for the side panel to cut into my shoulder blade. Or have the straps dig into my shoulders where my bursitis is. Now lets talk shoes-----oh how I wish I could find shoes! It isn't my fault I wear a 12 AAA and need a combination last! Even the lady at the SAS store commented on how flat my feet were. No wonder they hurt so much. They quit making one of my favorite " dress " shoes and quit carrying my size in the store so now I must special order. Please keep in mind I am doing all this with the help of my wonderful long suffering husband. He drives, drops me off when necessary, carries everything and even totes my purse because it is too heavy for my shoulder. It isn't easy to carry a purse and walk with a cane. AND he stands in line to check out while I try to find a seat to ease the pain and catch my breath! Thats all for now---- Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Well right there you would not find me buying such an expensive apple. My budget will never encompass all this organic stuff.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 the price of food is criminal here I get food stamps you get $70/week, it is not possible to feed yourself and eat healthy on that. Consider to have cereal in the morning will cost will costa about $13.00 to buy. MOst people say that can't afford to eat cereal anymore, this is just one example. There are so many commercials about eating healthy, but then you hear how nobody can afford it. The worst thing is when you buy locally, I would prefer to support local farmers, but their prices are always 2-3 times higher than the mainland fruits, makes no sense.
