Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

I have lost 35lbs and gone down from a size 22 (uk) to a 16, since 9.9.2009 when I got my band.

Last weekend I did some online shopping and I ordered a load of different types of knickers because I did not know what sort I would fit or would look nice - shorts, midis, high-leg, bikinis or what.

I just had to get rid of my "Bridget Jones" big knickers.

What a difference it makes to my self esteem to wear nice new underwear that is not baggy and tired and too big.

OK, they are just cotton chain store knickers but I have got black ones with lace, and some black and white polka dot ones and they are just great.

It puts a spring in my step! I can highly recommend it!:w00t:

That is a really fun feeling. I can't wait to throw away my 10 litre ones too.

I just did this too. I pulled the new ones out of the package and told hubby these look too small. They fit though and boy was I excited.

Nothing like sexy undies to make you feel great! (Even if no one else knows!) ;-)

That's really exciting. I haven't gone to buy any new ones yet, just enjoying the way that the old ones are now fitting correctly and some are getting too big. I'll go buy some soon. When I do go shopping for them, one of the stores that I am going to go into is Victoria Secrets. I am going to make a point to say something to someone in there too. The last time that I went in there was just to look and dream about being able to where something in there and the little girl (Young & Small) was so rude, seeing my size, that I was extremely insulted. Don't know that I would ever buy anything from there ever, because of that. They are not the only sexy undy store around.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
